New Blog, First Post!

If you follow me on Facebook, you may have realized the name of my crafts page has changed.


 I'm sure you've been on pins and needles (ha!) waiting to find out why.  Here's the story.  I've been tossing around the idea of starting an Etsy store for a while.  In order to market it properly and make the whole store, blog, Facebook thing less confusing, I was going to have to change the name of something.


First thing, when I googled Sew Much Fun, I found another store with the same name somewhere out there in internet land, so that was out.  There was already another seller with the same first and last name as me (I know, weird right? ) on Etsy so I had to get a little creative.  I came up with SO Handcrafted as a play on my initials.  I like the term "handcrafted" so that it doesn't lead you to believe I only offer sewn fabric goods.  I make all sorts of things and may decide to sell wreaths, bouquets, or other decor items.  My daughter has taken an interest in polymer clay and has become quite adept at sculpting all sorts of little things, so you may even see charms and key chains.


I've changed the Facebook name, started the new blog, ordered real fabric tags, and even printed a few business cards.  I started working on getting the Etsy shop open today.  I'm preparing to set up a booth at a local festival June 8th, so the shop won't actually be open for business until after that's done.  There's much more soon to come!
