Croc slides
Never used crocodile or goat before. Had fun learning some stuff and happy with my new slides. The only thing I don’t like about them is my toenails.

They look great! I’ve been trying to figure out a way to make something like this. But slippers for the house.

The Halloween Bag

I’ve never had the guts to go to a market. I’ve been invited a few times, but I feel like I need to have a bunch of different items and selections. How does your market look like? Post pictures!! 😀

Here’s a photo! I tend to value negative space in my booth and limit my selection to bags, notebook covers, wallets, and belts. I actually feel like I have too much stuff–customers know I sell leather goods, but I haven’t niched down to become *the* person for handmade bags, for example.

The real trick, I think, is figuring out who your ideal customer is and then finding events that fit that description. In the early years of my business, I made whatever for anyone and kind of just winged it. I’m getting to the point now where I want to target women with expendable income, a classic sense of style, and a commitment…
