A CRAFTacular Day!

In case you haven't noticed, one of the things I have been trying to do since I got laid off is build up Purplelicious. In addition to looking for a job, I have made Purplelicious my job since I have been home. Thankfully all of the hard work I have been putting into it has been paying off this holiday season. Compared to last year and previous months, my sales trends are up! YAY! On Wednesday I was taking some time to finish up some ribbon bangle bracelets I was working on.

I had an idea to add these crystals I knew I bought during one of my many trips to Michaels! While I was in my craft room searching for them, I found them and in the same bag I came across this crystal applique of a princess crown. I immediately had an idea to make a headband with it.

I also found an envelope of fabric scraps that my sister sent me and in that contained an adorable Alexander Henry print that I knew would make a cute kids headband.

I went back downstairs to finish the ribbon bangle bracelets. Then I went upstairs where I proceeded to make two kids headbands and 9 new wristlet keychains. Craziness!!! I finally finished listing everything today, I am hoping all of that craftiness pays off! Seeing as though two of my new items have already sold, I think I am off to a good start!
