071 – On The Round

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

I have two guests this week on the podcast… Rachel runs the Etsy shop On The Round and we are joined by Parker her little 4-month old baby boy.

Rachel has been selling on Etsy since 2008 so she’s quite the veteran and she is also very heavily involved in craft fairs so we dive deep into a conversation about craft fairs.

If you’re still a bit confused about the world of craft fairs and just how to get started in them, or if you’re lost and wondering how to maneuver and navigate the world of craft fairs then you’ll find this conversation very eye-opening.

Rachel is a work at home mom (WAHM) and she makes her full-time living making and selling hand-dyed artisan hand-spun and mill-spun yarn and fiber. So with three kids, a husband, a dog and chickens to boot, Rachel knows a thing or two about time management and she shares her own tips on how she handles it all.

Listen to Rachel’s inspiring story and feel free to reach out to her or leave a comment down below in the comments section.
