Making and making!!

This weekend the boys are out of the house and I have plenty of me time! Guess what I am going to do with it?? Make more things to stock up my store for the holidays! I pride my self on fast shipping, so anytime I can have some of my more popular product ready the faster I can ship them. Speaking of that the girls at the post office call me "the ball lady" lol. I love it! Here are some of the things I will be working on...

Blankets
Balls
Laundry soap

Custom Items



The last few weeks I have also been working on a few custom items for my friends. A co-worker just had a baby and wanted a football cocoon for her little girl. My bosses daughter also wanted a owl hat and feet. So designed by Tessa and JoLynn, I made Tessa her dream hat and socks. Yes there is puff paint on the bottom of the socks... non slip grip.

Long day...


Well today I had a nice long 10 hour day at work. We had some pretty bad storms last night into this morning and all I have to say is don't you just hate being woken up 20 min's before your alarm goes off? once I get back to sleep my alarm scares the heck out of me then I get off to kind of a slow start. For the rest of the day it just feels like I have to play catch up. On another note I was laying in bed last night thinking about my car (her name is November and she is a Grand Prix) when I saw this car commercial that has a car sliding over what appears to be ice and snow in a big open area. It got me thinking... when I slide over ice and snow it is never in a big open area. I would love to see a true to life car commercial where the car is sliding all over the highway and stops on a dime. now that would be true to life. that is the car I want to buy. No we did not get snow last night just a bunch of rain and really strong winds. sooo tired... must go to bed.

Lots and Lots of Sales!!







The past few days have been very busy for me and LuckyHanks! I have a goal this year for my shop and that is to hit 400 sales by August 2011. The shop will have then been open for 2 years. As of today I am on the right track for hitting that goal! What are my two main sellers you ask? My Dirty Girl eco-friendly laundry soap and my Wool Dryer Balls. Check out my shop here. I make a lot of different things and I will be talking a little about each one as the days go by.

About me!


I am 25 years old. I love butterfly's and my 2 dogs ~ Lucky and Hanks. I love to make things. Knitting and crocheting are my 2 most favorite things in the whole world. I have a business on etsy called LuckyHanks where I sell some of the things I make. I have had the business open for a little over a year now and I think it is doing great! Some day I would love to make Lucky Hanks my full time job. Selling anything on etsy gives me a little high! I love knowing that my hard work will be enjoyed by many people all over the world. I live in St. Louis, MO. Michaels and Hobby Lobby are my favorite stores. I drink nothing but Pepsi all day. I live in a house full of boys. My fiance's names is Steve and he has an 8 year son named Cameron who lives with us full time. I am 5'1 and Steve is 6'4 we look so cute together. I like being indoors, I think mostly because I hate bugs. I am terrified of any thing that hops. I work in a liquor distributing warehouse as their shipping coordinator and I have been with the company for a little over 4 years now. (no we do not give out free samples). My bosses are great and love to keep things simple and easy. I love working for this company they treat me well, and the people I work with make going to work every morning at 6am fun and exciting, but Lucky Hanks is my passion.

Lucky Hanks

I have been thinking about starting a blog now for a few weeks. So my wonderful man hooked me up! I have new products to talk about and things going on in my life that I would like to share with anyone who wants to listen. I will be doing an "about me" post tomorrow.
