Display Strategy for Toys

We don't know where they come from, but kids come flying out of nowhere into our shop. Their parents are not far behind them.

We stategically place the toys close to the ground and in front of our store. It is a total kid trap. There usually is a lot more crying than buying.

On the bright side, we do have items that have allowance friendly pricing.

First Thing I Have Ever Sewn- Passport Sleeve


I have never sewn anything with a sewing machine until now. I introduce you to my first ever passport sleeve.

It took me an entire day, the etsy forums and my wife's mother to teach me how to use the sewing machine.
