50th Birthday Card

I made a custom card this past week. My co-worker said that she needed a card for her friend’s 50th surprise birthday party. The man that is turning 50, repossesses cars for a living, so she told me that she wanted a card with cars, 50th birthday, and being a re-po man. It turned out better than I thought and she loved it!

Why Blog?

What in the world made me decide to blog? Why am I spending so much time to get this set up, looking good, and working? Well, I actually don't know. I keep having people tell me that I should set up a blog, so here I am.



It all started in January. I decided to try to earn some money from my crafts. I found that while I was doing my first of the year cleaning, I have a lot of crafts and gifts just waiting to be given away or sold. I decided to try my hand at selling on esty.com. I have already sold over $5000. in handmade greeting cards to my co-workers, but could I handle selling on-line? A friend of mine that has sold a lot of beads on etsy and ebay gave me some pointers and I spent the weekend setting up my shop. I try to add more products every few days.

Then, etsy.com was giving wonderful comments and helpful tips and always talking about setting up a blog. So, here I am--following directions, reading "Blogging for Dummies" and setting up my site. Thanks to my work supervisor who is also a pro at setting up blogs--she has given me some "insider" tips that will help me down the road.

Welcome to my blog!

Hello and welcome to my blog! I am the owner of

Oh My Stars Productions. I basically produce and sell handmade items including greeting cards, crochet trim baby blankets and burps, crochet trim pillow cases and necklaces. I love to make these items and have sold over $3000. in merchandise to my co-workers in the past 5 years. It is great to get paid to play with my hobbies. Now, after a number of people have told me that I should show my products to more people than just my family, friends, and co-workers, I have decided to open a store on etsy and to start a blog.
