Options

I had planned on writing every week (at least) but as per usual that hasn’t worked out so far! I’ve been super busy between Emme (who has figured out how to go backwards in her walker) and with the work from home venture I mentioned in my last post.

Mostly its going well, I like learning about all the different products and getting to try them all at my own pace. I’ve been using the propolis creme on Emmes cheeks as they are quite red and dry so it’s been moisturising them and making them look less sore, I’ve also been using the hand and face soap as a shampoo for her to help get rid of her cradle cap, it works so much better than other things I’ve tried. She also has a rash under her chin which looks super sore from her drooling, that’s only going to get worse as she starts teething so I think the propolis creme again would work or maybe the gelly. Maybe even the aloe lips would work? I’ll figure it out. She’s not in pain so that’s a good thing at least. It just looks scratchy.

I’ve also been going back to making my paper flowers again. Which is where the options title comes in, I’m not sure if I am going to continue doing it as a hobby or if I want to go all out serious and try to make money from them. I mean, they’re good, strong and sturdy while being pretty and delicate at the same time. Plus, there are some people out there that want to buy them. I’ve actually found people that don’t make me feel fake. That’s also a good thing.

What I’ve done about the flowers is I’ve rebranded my old Etsy page from Suzi’s Secret Stash to SuziBoo Creations and linked it to my SBC facebook page. I’ve also got 26 bunches of flowers to make for folk all around the world! Hopefully other people will see them and like them and want to buy some so y’know, things are happening. I’m keeping my options open.

My main problem at the moment is having the confidence to convince people that any of my wares are good to buy. But that’s on me. Confidence has never been a strong suit. Going back to the Forever stuff, I know what I’m talking about, when I don’t I can get answers quickly. I just haven’t got the right mindset for it at the moment. But I’m working on that and it will “bleed out” into my other things like the crafting and other things.

Maybe I’m trying to do too much at the one time, maybe I’m not. I just know I’ll get there, eventually.
