Thanks mm .

I've just invested £34 of it in re-branding my vintage jewellery shop. I've been trying to create a website for it outside of etsy but I've been finding it hard to make it look any good because of the colours and design of my banner, so I've decided to start again with a new name and everything (plus the logo I've just bought includes business cards which would cost me a lot if I got them made to match the logo I have at the moment).

I really love the new one, I can't wait to get business cards printed and start it properly. I've sent the woman a message asking if she minds it being called love letters because I think the name goes really well with the logo. I'm praying she says yes or I'll have to think up my own (inferior) name. Anyway, here it is: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=37640827

That looks lovely Nicki- wish I'd known about etsy selling logos when I did my site would have been so much easier!

I know what you mean mm, if I tried to do it myself I know it would look terrible, and it would cost a small fortune to pay a designer to do it which I couldn't afford. A lot of people on etsy do it as a hobby, some aren't great but some are really good. The one I bought was $55 which is one of the more expensive ones, but to be honest I'm happy to pay it because that's nothing compared to what it could be, plus I get the copyright for it.

I think it will look great :-) you inspired me to get off my !!!! and update the blog on my site-trouble is I've mucked it up and now need to get my webperson to fix it for me lol!! God knows what I've done, she really shouldn't let me update things myself she knows i'm computer illiterate :-)

Just sold my first item on ebay that I bought to resell as part of the £100-£10,000 challenge...a whole £4 profit but i'm unfeasibly happy about it :-)

yukkibear

Yeah I'll go with a break, would love a hot holiday. I got an email with centre parcs hols for £229 this morning, some were for end jan and some for Nov but fab prices for 6 people. Didn't book it though as our centre parcs hols are hectic coz we're on the go all the time and we're supposed to be booking the wedding this year.
