I Still Can't Believe It

It's already over 14 hours, and I still can't believe it! Over the last 24 hours I had a total of 9 sales on Etsy! Not one, not two, but NINE!!! For the past 20 days since I listed my first bookmark on Etsy, I still haven't had any sales up until today. (or more accurately, yesterday night when I'm asleep!)

Normally when I turn on the PC at work in the morning, the first thing I do was to check my e-mails. And there was this list of 'Notification of payment received' titled e-mails. At first I even suspected they were spam mails! Until I saw the Etsy order confirmation ones! My first sales... *wibbling in joy* This calls for a celebration! And I think I will get some yummy Starbucks tomorrow morning yumyum ♥

This feat was all thanks to The Handmade Movement!! For I was their target in a 'sneak attack' on Monday! You should check out their blog to know more about this sneak attack. But I am forever grateful to them for featuring me! All the crews and members of the Sneak Team, you have my eternal gratitude.

I also managed to snatch a slot for a treasury earlier in the evening! I was stalking the treasury, checking the tab every few minutes, waiting for the number to fall eventually until it is below 333. My friend commented it is like keeping an eye on the share market, lol! But enjoy my less colorful theme for today, it is a little bit goth, a little bit enchanting. Dark and beautiful stuff. Hope you will enjoy!
