Submissions: Less than 10 sales

Every Friday, I put together a treasury of some of my favorite items made by other etsy sellers, post it on my blog and call it the Friday's Favorites.

Last week's Feeling Handy treasury had 109 views, 23 comments, 68 clicks and 12 admirers.

A few months ago, I did a treasury of shops with less than 10 sales, and it was so popular I thought I would do it again.

If your shop has less than 10 sales, post your favorite item in the comments, and check back tomorrow for the Friday's Favorites!

Have more than 10 sales? Feel free to nominate a friend with less and help spread the love.

I will be looking for items in the forums as well, but I always consider the blog submissions first.

New Sock Ideas

Yesterday, I started on some new house sock ideas. I came up with some patterns with animals on them. I thought it would be something fun to wear around the house when the weather gets colder.

I've just started a pair of lion socks, and I really hope they turn out well. I am always excited when I start a new idea, but I also get nervous, hoping that it will turn out the way I see it in my head. Many times, it doesn't, and then I'm stuck with a bunch of wasted time, with nothing to put in my shop. However, when it does work out, the pride I have in making my vision come to life is immeasurable.

Just last week my vision for a faux wrap sweater came into fruition. I was going to post more about it, but it sold, and I just shipped it off. When I'm finished with some of my sock ideas, I'm definitely going to make another.

Kitty Toilet Training 3

Today is the day that the litter box is getting raised again. Much harder than training kitty to jump on the litter box is finding something sturdy to put the litter box on. I think that having the litter box fall on the cat will probably be a big deterrent for further training, so I want to make sure that it doesn't happen.

So far there have been no accidents since the litter box has been moved and raised next to the toilet. Alfred (the kitty) is the most fearless cat I have ever met, so I'm expecting this next step to go without a hitch.

...now to find something to set the litter box on....

For those of you that don't know, I'm training my cat to use a human toilet. For more about it, click on the cat tab on the left of the screen.

Sunday Funday Video: Commercials

I love watching funny foreign commercials as they haven't been played over and over again on my TV. Here is a collection of 4 gems, they made me laugh, I hope they make you guys laugh too!

Kitty Toilet Training 2

For those that don't know, I'm training my kitty cat to use a human toilet. You can follow along by checking out the tag "cat" on the left column of the screen.

So far I've moved the litter box into the bathroom and raised it about the height of a phone book...well, exactly the height of a phone book. I used extra newspapers to fill in the gaps so the box wouldn't wobble. Alfred (the cat) is totally cool with this, and I think I'm going to raise it again on Monday.

I could move things along a little faster, as Alfred is very smart and catches on quickly, but I don't want to move things too fast as it might piss him off (pun intended) and he might find other places in the house to go that are more to his liking.


In other news:

I designed and created a new sweater! I call it a Faux Wrap Sweater, as the top half is like your favorite comfy sweater, but the bottom half is a wrap to accent the smallness of your waist. You can have that slimming look, and stay comfortable too!
