Hi, friends. Hope that this finds you well and that you had a nice start to your week. On our Instagram account @mtnittanycreations, we started doing features of four shops who post on our Follow Friday posting. It is fun to support other handmade shops and blogs each Friday by hosting a Follow Friday. What is this you may ask? Virtually I post a fun picture like:
Then I tag some people and ask them to share about their shop and tag some of their favorite makers or bloggers.
Out of all the people who share, I randomly select four makers to be featured on my Sunday feed, #sundaymakerso. The last two Follow Fridays, I have offered the opportunity to be featured on my blog.
The first feature from Follow Friday is Brittany from We R Crafts!
Brittany is originally from Pasadena, MD and currently resides in Elkridge, MD. When she was really young her mom taught her to sew and she has been crafting ever since. Brittany was inspired to start her business with her mom because crafting and sewing are such a love of hers that it helps to relieve stress and she finds it very calming. In 2015 Brittany lost her father, having the craft business really helped her and her mom through this difficult time. It was a great way to keep them busy as they mourned.
Brittany and her mom started selling online just over a year ago. They started selling online because it afforded the opportunity to sell their products to anyone at any time of day. They hope to one day make their business into a viable income. Who wouldn't want to do what they love all the time? One of Brittany's favorite pieces is their "Rags" Princess outfit because "it is not the typical puffy princess' outfit."
Brittany wants all of the inspiring makers out there to know that if you are looking to go into selling online "Pick something you love to do if you are not passionate or inspired by your craft you won't have fun creating like you should."
Congrats again Brittany and thank you for sharing about yourself and your business.
