My Secret Shop

So, this might be a little weird, but I'm just going to go for it.  I'm out of here in a few months, so if you think I'm tacky and obnoxious, I'll probably never even know.  Unless you tell me.  So don't tell me.  OK?

Here's the deal:  I'd like to get my sweet husband something special as a graduation gift.  Residency has been long and hard, especially for him (duh!), and this is a major milestone.  But, I want to earn the money to pay for it on my own, without dipping into the family budget.  Shane wouldn't care (or even notice, probably), but I like the idea of giving him something that he didn't ultimately pay for with his own hard work.  

So, for a limited time I'll do my own work!  Hurrah!  I'm opening a secret little shop to sell handmade stuff, custom made just for you.  Stuff like this:
 


For things like embellished onesies, you can either supply the onesie and I'll embellish it, or I'll get the onesie (I know a guy!  His name's Amazon, and I ordered in bulk!), and add the cost to your total.  You're also welcome to pick out your own fabrics and bring them to me, or come over and shop from my stash.   (Or I can e-mail you pics.  It's a long way to South Buffalo.)

If you want to see more, feel free to click through my craft blog over here and pick out anything you like.  In general, I'll charge $10-15 an hour for my time, plus the cost of materials.  Materials from my stash are free, though, because my stash is vast and I want to reduce it anyway.   (Act fast for best selection!  You don't want to be the fool with the sparkly polyester handbag.  Oh wait, maybe you do.  Maybe do.)


So, yeah, that's my pitch.  Call or e-mail if you're interested.  And don't tell Shane.
