I'm "YarnPal" on Zibbet, where I sell yarn!
I'm "atruslow" on eBay, where I auction off craft supplies, name-brand jewelry and gift items.
My business is two-sided...on one hand, my love for handmade items and different supplies, especially yarn, allow me to sell products on Zibbet and Etsy...and my shopaholic tendencies give me stuff to sell on eBay, too!Unknownnoreply@blogger.comBlogger83125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4385097100035012649.post-37286775667714039232012-02-19T11:26:00.002-05:002012-02-19T11:28:57.613-05:00Collecting Coins Can Be Girly!<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">The title of this blog is "I Sell Girly Stuff," and when I started to take an interest in coins, I thought I ought to change it if I ever try to sell any here, but then I thought, why CAN'T collecting/buying/selling coins be girly, too? Anyone can do it, girls included!<br />
<div><br />
</div><div>Have you ever been to a coin show? It's been a few years for me, but as I recall, the majority of booths were run by men, and most of the buyers were men, too. I wonder why? I know that when my husband became interested in coins, I only half paid attention, but now that he has a few that he'd like me to sell fo him on eBay, I'm suddenly very interested, and am learning more than I ever thought possible about certain coins, and I hope to learn more!</div><div><br />

</tbody></table><div><b>Martin Van Buren Presidential coins</b> 2008-S (the "S" means that the coin originated in San Francisco). These particular coins are great for the novice collector. They're inexpensive, they're beautiful, and they're graded, so they come in sealed hard plastic sleeves directly from the coin grader. They are proof coins, meaning they have a mirror-like finish. From what I understand, several presidents are being represented on coins each year in this series. Ha ha, the Martin Van Buren coin reminds me of the Seinfeld episode where Kramer had a run in with the Van Buren street gang.</div><div><br />

I'm always looking myself for deals on yarns made here at home, and I love being able to offer these products to my customers!

</tbody></table><div style="text-align: center;">I've been aware for quite some time now about the need to buy U.S. products, and especially to avoid buying from companies that produce in countries that have terrible working conditions and that take jobs away from American workers. My problem is that while I've been conscious of all of this, it wasn't always first and foremost in my mind during that moment that I make the purchase, and without thinking about it, I'd see a great deal on bags of yarn, I'd buy them up, and then realize later that I just bought something made in China. These days, though, I make a conscious effort to try to choose more items from the U.S., Canada, Italy, and a few other select countries.</div><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Unfortunately, so many Americans right now are in a tough position financially. And when places like China and Turkey are offering yarns to crocheters and knitters at unbelievable low costs, it's tough to make economical sense of spending 3 or 4 times more on yarn made elsewhere. People have families to feed, educations to pay for, medical expenses to cover. It's HARD to resist those incredibly low prices. But even if we can't do it all the time, we can start by being aware of it and avoiding it when possible.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I'm able to sell my selection of American-made yarns at lower costs because I shop deals and I buy in bulk. Then I break up the large quantities I purchase into listings of 1 - 4 skeins of yarn and sell them for very little profit, and with low shipping costs. Right now, my U.S. yarns are not a real money-maker for me, but I want them to have a constant presence in my shops...and I would love one day for them to make up the bulk of my selection.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

It's about that time. I see Christmas merchandise already out at Michael's (forget Halloween!), so it's time for me to get all my yarns listed...and fast!</div><div><br />
</div><div>This morning I've been thinking about what I have to offer the knitters, crocheters and weavers of this country, and I thought I'd take this opportunity to tell you what I'm all about and the benefits of shopping in one of my on-line stores!</div><div><br />
</div><div><a href="http://zibbet-production.s3.amazonaws.com/images/234/1170244-140.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://zibbet-production.s3.amazonaws.com/images/234/1170244-140.jpg" /></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">1. <b>I love to crochet</b>, and even though I'm not a yarn expert, I do have a passion for yarn, </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">its uses, and have the best time selling it on-line as a small business/full-time hobby. I learn more and more every day. I'm a yarn-a-holic.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">2. I have a <b>low markup</b>. I shop bargains and purchase in bulk, and I pass the savings along to you. I'm a bargain shopper no matter what I'm buying for myself, so I want to give you deals, too. I wouldn't be me if I did it any other way!</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">3. <b> No minimum orders</b>! I don't care if you buy a $1.00 item from me - I will ship it and it will receive the same care and consideration as any other purchase.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div><a href="http://zibbet-production.s3.amazonaws.com/images/219/1096415-140.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://zibbet-production.s3.amazonaws.com/images/219/1096415-140.jpg" /></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">4. I keep my <b>shipping charges low</b>. I calculate my shipping prices based on actual postage rates, cost of my packaging materials, and the amount of gas it takes for me to drive to my local post offices! I also offer <b>combined shipping rates</b>, saving you even more money when you make multiple purchases!</span></div><div><br />
</div><div><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;">One of the advantages of my low prices and low shipping costs is that you can buy one or a few skeins of yarn at a decent overall price (item cost + shipping). Some of the bigger guys require either a minimum </span></i><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;"> purchase of </span></i><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;">$35.00, $50.00 or more to even buy yarn from them, or they may charge very high shipping prices for very small orders. Compare prices - shopping with me may save you a little money if you're looking to buy just a skein or two.</span></i></div><div><br />
</div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">5. <b>Safe packaging</b>. I ship yarns in puncture-resistant water-proof poly envelopes. For added protection, yarn is sealed in a plastic bag and wrapped in tissue paper or bubble wrap.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div><a href="http://zibbet-production.s3.amazonaws.com/images/258/1292752-140.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://zibbet-production.s3.amazonaws.com/images/258/1292752-140.jpg" /></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">6. Consistently <b>quick shipping</b>. On all of my store sites, I indicate that items will be sent within 2 business days of receiving cleared payment. This is a safety net for me, in case I run into an emergency and can't get packages out right away. But normally, packages are in the mail same or next business day.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">7. I accept <b>PayPal</b> as payment. It's safe and secure - use your PayPal balance to pay, or you can use your credit card through PayPal. All I see is your e-mail address - as a seller, I never see credit card numbers. I use it myself, whenever possible, to make my own </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">purchases!</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">8. <b>I value my customers!</b> I want you to be completely satisfied with your purchase, so if something isn't what you thought it was, or if it somehow gets damaged along the way, you can return it for a full refund.</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"></span></div><div><a href="http://zibbet-production.s3.amazonaws.com/images/224/1124706-140.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://zibbet-production.s3.amazonaws.com/images/224/1124706-140.jpg" /></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">9. Finally, I have a <b>fun selection of yarns</b>!!! Because I shop deals, my selection always varies, but I try to keep a little bit of everything in stock: wool blends; cotton; mohair; higher end ribbon and novelty yarns; bargain yarns; eyelash/fur styles; bulky, worsted, sport, double knitting and fingering weight yarns; and more!</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">So next time you're yarn shopping, please keep me in mind...here's where you can find me:</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />

<div><a href="http://zibbet-production.s3.amazonaws.com/images/258/1292752-140.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://zibbet-production.s3.amazonaws.com/images/258/1292752-140.jpg" /></a></div><div>I began selling handmade jewelry and crochet items on <a href="http://shop.ebay.com/atruslow/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_from=&_ipg=&_trksid=p3686">eBay</a> and <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/AlisonDesigns?ref=si_shop&view_type=gallery">Etsy</a> back in 2006-2007. I included shipping to Canada back then and did quite a bit of business. Unfortunately, my regular job caused me to put my shops on an indefinite vacation and for a few years, I stopped selling on-line entirely.</div><div><br />
</div><div>But I returned late summer 2010, determined to make on-line sales a new hobby and maybe someday my main job, and this time I'm focusing more on selling craft supplies. I've only been shipping within the U.S. since then. Actually, I had a great first holiday season, and if I had been selling internationally, I don't know if I could have handled the load, especially since I was still getting my feet wet with on-line sales. My top priority is to get well-priced quality products out <b>quickly</b> to my customers, so I have to be realistic about limitations I have to set on myself...and while I would have loved the extra business international sales would bring, I may not have been able to accommodate all of my customers as a whole as well as I did my first holiday season. As a one-man operation selling craft supplies and seasonal items, I was strapped for time as it was.</div><div><br />
</div><div><a href="http://zibbet-production.s3.amazonaws.com/images/258/1292803-140.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://zibbet-production.s3.amazonaws.com/images/258/1292803-140.jpg" /></a>Business is a little slower now, though, so I am giving international sales a try again by opening up shipping to Canada. I know, it's just a small step toward expansion, but I want to be cautious. On top of the extra work (filling out customs forms, travelling to the post office several times a week), I probably get more stressed out than most people do about shipments that can't be tracked! I don't make enough money yet to be comfortable covering the cost of lost merchandise, and when you ship First Class International, you can't track your packages!</div><div><br />
</div><div><a href="http://zibbet-production.s3.amazonaws.com/images/223/1119399-140.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://zibbet-production.s3.amazonaws.com/images/223/1119399-140.jpg" /></a>We'll see what the holiday season brings. Now that I have a good rhythm of packing and shipping worked out, hopefully I'll be able to handle the extra sales without sacrificing my careful packaging and speed of service.</div><div><br />

Sometimes I'm not inspired to say much, while other times i can run my mouth on and on about nothing. I've been very busy lately, but I'm spending much of my free time making little stuffed cats and other animals. I've been wanting to get into making amigurumi dolls and animals...the following aren't true amigurumi because I have been joining my rounds at the back, but they are my own designs...<br />

I'm in the process of trying to perfect my cat ears. I'm enjoying making these little creatures - they're quick projects and that's what I like...plus, I'm using up a lot of spare/leftover yarn that I've been collecting over the years...</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4385097100035012649.post-35952849363668243392011-04-06T17:43:00.000-04:002011-04-06T17:43:55.952-04:00I Want To Follow You Back!<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">I wasn't sure if I was ever going to get back to blogging...I've been dealing with a very sick kitty for the last few weeks, I'm trying to sell a piece of land we've had on the market for a while now, and I have dentist appointments all the time these days! Looks like I might need a root canal!<br />
<br />
I have to keep this short because with the few moments I have, I want to attempt to crochet an amigurumi! I found free patterns for a snowman, a Santa, an angel and one other thing...all Christmas ornaments. I'll practice with these little guys and will give the good ones out as gift-toppers this year!<br />
<br />
Anyway, if you're following my blog and I'm not following you back, please leave me the link to your blog - I can't get to all blogs by clicking on the profile pics (an ongoing problem for me).<br />
<br />
Thanks and have a nice night!<br />
