I've got my Ten listed for today and then some...

I ended up listing 15 items on Ebay tonight. These are items that I have taken pictures of before the holiday and was just waiting to get listed. I went shopping today and only bought one dress and four cute clip on bow ties at the thrift store. I am not supposed to be shopping but I just felt the urge. I still got some items listed. Here are a few of my favorites...

If I am to follow my resolution of ten items everyday that would be a total of 3,650 items in the year. With the 17 items on Ebay, 18 items on Etsy, and the newly 15 items on Ebay tonight, I am at a new count down of 3,600 items to go.

I've worked on Etsy, too!

Yesterday I also relisted some items to Etsy. I have neglecting both my Etsy sites and need to work on them. I ended up getting 14 items relisted and four relisted. Here are a few of the items I am surprised I am relisting. These will be listed on OLIVEYOUVINTAGE on Etsy.

There is a New Year just around the corner

Well, it is almost 2012 and I am already behind. I have a packed house, need more income, and need to stop shopping. I just finished watching the movie The Julie/Julia Project about Julia Child and the women who blogged about cooking all the recipes in Julia Child's cookbook in a year. That got me started thinking. I am going to try and grow my business using my blog. I have made a New Years resolution ( which I never do) to list at least TEN items a day on either Ebay or Etsy. I am hoping this will solve all of my about problems. This should lessen the load in my house. Make me more money. And stop me from shopping (as I will be listing and packing until my hands bleed). I am also hoping that if I keep this up it will make my blog and business grow. As a bonus, I hope that I will have more friends or followers on this blog. Fingers crossed.
