After an exhaustive job hunting effort, I'm still unemployed. Looks like rural Newfoundland is experiencing a job shortage... Who knew! In the meantime, I'm living off fumes from my lean bank account and stretching out every dollar. To exercise this, some of my new hobbies include hunting for coupons online and studying the latest edition of the Foodland flyer. These aren't bad hobbies, but things are getting pretty desperate. A student's life is never easy... But when you're in a tight space, you always find ways to get out I guess. So, I present to the world, my two new etsy shops!
Matters of Little Consequence, my little shop of miniature embroidered illustrations. They're really REALLY small.
and
The Happy Utilitarian, a shop of useful items for the person who likes to get down 'n dirty. Right now there's only a tote bag in there, but I've got some canvas carpenter's aprons and gardening aprons on the go that I'll post pretty soon.
I won't be able to make a living from my shops any time soon, but hopefully with some elbow grease and a little amateur internet marketing, I'll be able to afford a head of broccoli now and then (broccoli is like $3.50 in these parts... that's the price you pay when you're only accessible by boat.).
