Sneakhugs Shop!

This is me, Nikki.

And this is the start of something very exciting for me.

You see, lately I've been dabbling in the art of sewing.

I never really thought I'd be any good at it but since practically all the women in my family sew I said oh what the heck I'll give it a try and what do you know, I got the sewing gene!

I love it and find that it comes naturally to me.

I would've never guessed.

Obviously I'm still in the beginner stage but I'm getting better every day.

After making a couple purses for myself I found that I wasn't the only one who liked what I made.

Other people were actually telling me they wanted me to make one for them and asking if I was going to be selling them soon.

I kinda thought people were just being overly polite because obviously my friends and family aren't going to tell me my stuff sucks big time or anything so I pushed selling things to the back of my mind.

I started making pillows next.

Saying that I love holiday decorations is sort of an understatement.

I love love LOVE them!

My house is covered with decorations for practically every holiday of the year but the one thing I can't seem to find for every holiday is a pillow to spice up my couch with.

It's so frustrating!

But once I found out my new sewing talent I realized I could make my own couch spicing pillows.

So I did.

And they are cute.

And again, people would come to my house and tell me that they wanted one so I should stop being a baby and just sell them already.

And I would say oh my gosh leave me alone will ya?

But really I was flattered and decided to take their advice and got an Etsy account.

Right now I'm just starting this whole shop thing.

I've got 3 pillows and 3 purses up right now but I've got a whole notebook full of ideas to be made.

I'm super duper excited to keep creating and having fun with it!
