Open up an Etsy Shop

I am trying to figure out how to get my inventory that is in my house out of my house???  Have any suggestions.. I would love your input... I have opened up an Etsy shop

http://www.etsy.com/shop/FarmhouseIndustrial

(this is the link to my Etsy Shop)

I have thought about trying to set up in a couple of local stores around where I live, the two that I am most interested in of course have waiting list...  then the other day on my Facebook business site 

https://www.facebook.com/FarmhouseIndustrialShabbyChic

(facebook business link)

I was approached by a store that is opening up but they are not close to my home, it sounds so exciting and I really want to get my stuff in a store... but I am just torn... thinking about my tendencies.. I don't like to travel as it is... do you think you would set up in a store that was really far from your home, like over an hour or more drive???  

And then I also have an opportunity to set up in a local shop and sell my stuff a little bit at a time.  The number one thing, is I need to get some of this inventory out of my home.  PLEASE ALL OF YOU OUT THERE IN BLOGGER WORLD... AND SUCCESSFUL SELLERS... LET ME KNOW YOUR TIPS AND TRICKS AND HOW YOU GET YOUR STUFF SOLD....  

Shut the Front Door...

Who loves doors???  I am in love with doors, and windows, and cabinets, and I also have two old leaded glass window panes...  I am thinking about framing them out with old barn wood...  I posted one photo album called Shut The Front Door @ Farmhouse Industrial... with all our doors for sale

Hip to be Square... Spotlight Designer Today...

Hip to be Square

I love promoting art, artist, designers, and I have been promoting this one for a week, and I keep liking her stuff... her being Aimee Woffinden Maher //www.facebook.com/pages/Hip-to-be-Square/382807215133068  the first thing that attracted me to her page was the fourth picture down the yellow bird, so I liked her page, "Hip to be Square" on my personal Facebook.. last week, then today.. I saw these beautiful chandeliers that looked so french, shabby chic, and different, and then they are personalized, and she adds jewels to them!! (Jewels are for decorative effect only)  What more could a girl ask for.  So I told her, I wanted to promote her on my blog, and my facebook page... but I didn't realize that Aimee and Hip to be Square..where the same..so actually I have been her fan for awhile!!

 Personalized Chandelier Hanging Boards First Middle Names 5 Different Styles $15

Customize Family board 12 X24 up to 3 color choices $25

Customize Mr. & Mrs. 3 12 X 12 boards 4 colors $45 

(great wedding, first christmas, or anniversary)

Bird cage 12 X 12 choose up to 3 colors $15

All of Aimee's beautiful custom designs are available to you, and she includes you in the design, this is directly copied from her sight as what Hip to be Square is.... 

"Let me tell you a little bit about the process of my boards I make. They are made out of real wood. I sand them, prime them, paint a first coat, do a stencil process, paint a different color(this way I can distress the piece and give it a unique two tone effect)  Then I add vinyl for finishing touches and spray a protective coating over it all.  I paint them anyway you like.  I like the thickness of the boards I use, so they don't need a frame.  I love making things and giving people the opportunity to add their personality and colors to their home.  Use your imagination and let me know how I can help create something unique for you!"

So when you are doing your holiday shopping this year, why don't you do something different and get the ones you love a unique piece of art, that is as unique as them, and it can be personalized.  

I know you can't wait to head on over to Hip to be Square to start shopping so here is her link once again

This is my Yellow Farmhouse...with a red door...kinda where it all began

This is the yellow farmhouse on Sunnybrook lane... with the red door, that my husband, found and bought for me, about a year and half ago... it still as you can tell needs help outside.  ALL of those pavers have been sold:)  To a nice family that adopted some twins.  This farmhouse was yellow and had a red door when we bought, but we repainted a brighter yellow, sorry neighbors:)  I think the color is called Dunn Edwards Sunshine:)  I love the names of paints, and markers, and nail polishes..  just to give a start... i fill you in later, but everything on the inside had to be gutted out... and we did it mostly ourselves, and we still our...

There will be soon a place you can find items for sale, and we are thinking of for locals in Arizona having a farmhouse yard sale, with refinished furniture, and industrial items, in the beginning of Nov.

I am going to post one more picture of what I think Farmhouse Industrial Shabby Chic looks like... for today... 

These are some fun items in front of my fireplace, some rusted out routers, an old newel post painted in light blue chalk paint, some more rusted out stuff, and a peace subway sign I made, an old wooden farm box, and tray, and you can't tell because of the brightness of the flash, but there are two blue chalk paint re-purposed barn wood shelves.


for all of you blog followers that like to win contest... sign up to follow me on your email, and like me on your facebook page... after we get the first 25 likes and email followers, they will go in a drawing for the PEACE subway art in this picture..
