I hope you enjoy all that it entails, packaging, creating, behind the scenes & a Q&A with frequently asked questions about owning an etsy store at the end!

    I think it’s amazing that you and Dom have your own businesses together. I would love it if my husband had even the smallest interest in anything I’d love to make. He’s retiring soon and I would love to be able to have a hobby that we could make even a little money on the side. It won’t be necessary for us but it would just be something fun to do together. I wish you both much success.😊💖🙏

    Hope you enjoy this candid video of a very realistic day in my work life as an Etsy shop owner! As I said in the video I wear lots of hats during the week but Etsy is a huge part of my life now & wrapping orders and making sure the store is well stocked takes up a huge chunk of mine & Doms day! 🥰

    Hi hun! Can’t believe how big and floppy Echo has got lol lol. He’s beautiful. It’s really good seeing behind the scenes and seeing how my orders get packed and sent to me. Sending love and hugs. Stay safe both of you. Lovely seeing Dom too! Xxx💜

    Very nice! Thank-you for taking us along. If you ever come across BC Ocean Picture Stone in your travels that would be so cool wire wrapped. Your creations are just lovely and love how you both balance each other out when it comes to your Etsy shop. Take care and have a lovely day!

    Have you ever thought of making wine glass charms? I think you could make some really beautiful ones compared to some of the cheaper ones that are on the market. You could sell them in sets. Just a suggestion.💖

      The thing about CFS is it comes in waves. Some days I can do a lot but others not so much. I’m still learning how to pace myself 🙈

    why is the fragile label on the box... THEN wrapped in bubblewrap? Shouldn't it be on the outermost packaging for the postie?

    I also have an Etsy jewelry shop. I've been thinking about opening a 2nd Etsy Shop but do you sell the same items in both shop or are they totally different? I checked out both shops and I see that you guys sell gemstones in both but are they the same products or the same type of products?
