This is Angie, the owner of The Country Chic Cottage. Angie is a seller from Mt. Pleasant, TN (yay, fellow Tennessean!), and she sells vintage and handmade items for your home! I hope you all enjoy getting to know her as I have! Check out her shop, she may have just the thing you're looking for to spruce up your home!
Tell us a bit about yourself.
Hellow!! My name is Angie and I run The Country Chic Cottage. I am a full time working wife and mother to three great kids. I stay busy with my blog and etsy shop. :)
How did you come up with your shop name?
I started my blog long before selling on etsy and it just made sense for them both to be the same.
When did you start crafting?
I sell vintage and handmade items for your country cottage! I have been crafting since I was walking I would say. I basically taught myself to sew and I love it!!
What first made you want to start selling your creations?
Gosh, too many ideas for my cottage! When a nest gets too full of creations, time to open an etsy shop!
Describe your creative process to us.
What inspires you?
How do you promote your work?
Tell us two short-term goals you have and one long-term.
1) I really want to get to 7 sales a week consistently.
2) List 100 items in my shop.Long term -- grow my blog and my etsy shop at a level that is comfortable for me.
Walk us through a typical day in your life.
I am up by 5:30. I etsy and blog in the morning. I try to list 1-2 things a day. Three kids dressed and out for school by 7. I head to work. I thrift store hop at lunch. I get off around 5. I try to take some pictures, etc before it gets dark. Supper, homework, dishes, tv, and bed (not necessarily in that order). And start all over again the next day!
What is your favorite item in your shop at the moment?
What advice would you give to artists who are new to Etsy?
Get out there, get to know other people in the etsy community, blogs, etc. It goes miles in getting sales!
