Five Years
Posted by Melina and Denise , Thursday, November 21, 2013 5:30 PM
It's weird, how time truly flies. At the same time, it seems like I've been doing what I've been doing all my life.
It's been five years since Denise and I opened our Etsy shop, and we are celebrating with a 15% off all regular priced items sale (coupon code 'anniversary'). I can't believe it's been that long, and it feels like it should have always been there. Props must be given at this point, if it wasn't for our good friend Kerry, we aren't sure we would have considered Etsy at all. She has the store, Effiehandmade. Thank Kerry. You are a gem.
I think it was 4 years ago I bought my beautiful Viking emerald 115 sewing machine. It is a trooper, poor thing. Also, I love now making all the patterns and product designs. Denise gives me ideas and has her input in my pattern/designs too.
Denise is a writer, but I've loved seeing her use her obvious visual artistry skills and watch her confidence grow. She never makes anything less than fab.
Pleased to say that our store has continuously gotten busier. We will keep adding new products. And keep working harder to make our shop more successful.
Hmmm, I wonder were we will be in 10 years?

Happy Etsy-versary, guys!! Congratulations on all that you've achieved so far, and I look forward to seeing what the next five years brings!
