I'm not one for New Years resolutions. In fact, I'm opposed to them. I've read far too much about how often one actually keeps a resolution (coughnevercough), so I never make any. However, I do have some goals for 2009 regarding crafts and my business. Here are a few.
1. Grow my business. I need to do this either by putting more effort into my Etsy shop or by finding consignment opportunities. Eek! Scary!
2. Learn new skills. I want to make my sewing machine my bitch in 2009. I'm definitely still its bitch at this point. I also want to start making body products, crochet an afghan, and learn more bookbinding techniques.
3. Improve the Disciples of Etsy team. As a new team leader, I have a ton of ideas, but I've yet to do anything. I want to make the team more useful to its members.
4. Set up my studio. That room is a total mess! I bought some more organizers at Target, and as soon as I have a couple of free hours, I'm gonna go crazy in there. We also need to get some bookshelves.
Those are the main goals. I know others will pop up, but these will do for now. What goals do the rest of you have for the New Year?

I'm committing to your #s 1 and 2 as well. I'm taking a hat making class!
Im with you on the sewing machine resolution...how can these archaic machines be so difficult to manage??? I get all nervous even at the idea of rethreading a bobbin....
Happy New Year!!
can't wait to see your new products!!
those sound like managable goals. Consignment items - yes, that's a bit scary! Good luck, co-team leader. Sorry, I gave up on the OKEtsys, bec. you're just too far away.
What's Disciples of Etsy? It sounds like an interesting team!
I love your "new skills" goal! I think I'll try to develop more tech skills to aid in marketing. Thank you!
