My "at home" business has been machine embroidery up until this year. I have all this mesh and ribbon that I have played with and I thought maybe I better figure out how to do a better job. So, here I am learning. I have been getting your emails and watching your videos for a few years. Yes my dear, you are an inspiration. I signed up for Jennifer's workshop.
Laurie, I have been doing that as well, but now I am thinking of having an Etsy shop. My family does not want to keep getting my stuff! lol I have a really cool 12 needle embroidery machine, something I know lots of people don't have. I have been doing a lot of research on opening a shop and what I could sell. I have gotten pretty good at it over the years and I can make a lot of stuff, like emb. blocks for a quilt, or for a pillow, or something like that. I am seriously considering it. I also LOVE shopping for supplies.
My husband and I just opened our Etsy shop. A bit nervous, however, I have faith this is what the Lord wants me to do in this season. Your story is HIS story! Prayer warrior!
Southern Charm Wreaths This is my 2nd video I’ve listened to from. You, and I love your message and personality! I am blind. Thus, the reason I LISTENED. Thank you for your inspiration!
I started making wreaths from strips of ribbon, because I wanted to decorate my front door for each month. My friends asked me to make them one too - and paid me! I started my Etsy shop as a place for friends to see all of my designs. 4 months ago, I got serious about selling them. :)
Julie you have been an inspiration to me. I have learned so much in the short time that I have been watching you. I am almost 73 years old and am finally making my dream come true of owning my own business. Thank you so very much for all you have taught me and I hope that God Blesses you in everything you do. Sharon Steele
You are very correct about God answering prayers in different ways. He just answered mine through you. Thank you so very much for sharing your story. You are a tremendous inspiration.
I feel the same way. Because I prayed and I guess I was looking for an alright reply like that's going to happen. It made me thing about the little nudge gave me about its not just about the money.
I've had a hard time selling at first took me 7 months to figure it out. Now sales kept on coming and I'm so thankful to God for blessing my tiny shop! Even though I've only sold 58 so far, ETSY brought lots of joy in my life haha. A good side job while in College!
Thank you! I have followed you for 2 years, learned SO much and brightened my days. I love that you share your love for the Lord along with your business sense.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE your testimony!!! Thank you! Prayer is the key! I have loved your creations for the past several months (since I started), and now I love how to share your faith!!
You've become VERY Special to many who have followed what you share, your information & inspiration will bring more hope and results to many of us who at one point or another felt hopeless Thank you, I will continue to follow and learn from what you share, God bless !
This is the 3rd video I've watch while editing, I've had a rough couple of weeks and you are giving me hope I am a stay at home mom of 3, and my husband is our only income also. I've been wanting to build my business and I don't know where to start but I'm doing it!! I will be taking your advice and I think I want to take any classes you have available!! I am a christian also and I appreciate you sharing your experience with me I've been feeling a bit forgotten and we are trying to buy a home for our family and it just feel so unreachable. So thank you for your encouraging words!
Julie, you are so inspiring! You are so right, when your back is against the wall, God blesses your efforts and helps you to develop those talents that He gave you. I don't think anyone really knows what they are doing - we all just put our best foot forward and do the best we can do - all of us. Everything is a learning curve but if we're willing to put in the effort eventually we will succeed. Made me think of a saying: 'Failure cannot live with persistence'. More power to your elbow Julie, thanks for sharing!
Julie,thank you for your incouragement I have just got into making wreaths and at a stand still where to start to sell. I started watching videos and didn't realize that I had talent to make them but lost on selling I really amazed myself .I have always worked factory work and never had the time to do much of anything except that now at the age of almost 66 trying something new because medical reasons I can't do factory work anymore so that's where I'm at now trying to make extra money to survive on because having a limited income is hard .you had to be my word of incouragement this morning. Again thank you and God bless
Hi, I just came across your channel not to long ago. I just want to thank you for sharing this, I have been praying. I have a five year old and I work a 8 to 4 job it's a blessing because I can have him at the same school I work at. There is a feeling that I could not fight that I want to work from home so I can have more time with my son, especially with all that is going on. When you said teach it hit home because as a assistant teacher I'm always teaching. So many creative thoughts fill my mind a day and I want to share these. I knew it was time for a change especially after my 5 year old told me get up and go work on your computer. I thought this must be God, he has no idea I am creating a store. Thank you so much.
thanks for your honest story, and not leaving God out of your story. A lot of people are afraid of saying that they prayed over their life, family and business - thank you and your ideas and wreaths are amazing keep them coming.
I loved your story and advice. You are such a blessing. I have been crafting since I can remember. My grandmother taught me to cross stitch when I was very young. I love crafting. But have always given my products to family as gifts. Even then my family said I should sell my crafts. Every time I posted my crafts on Facebook..my friends asked why I wasn't selling. But I could never figure out why anyone would pay me when it was so easy to make. But my friends kept telling me..no there was no way they could attempt it. I'm so excited to see if this is where God is leading me. Thank you for all your advice and inspiration.
Thank you for this very encouraging video. I have a day job which I like well enough, but I can't see myself doing only that job for the rest of my life. I would love to start selling my sewn items soon, and to start to have more control over my week rather than having a nine-to-five that locks me in.
I don't normally comment to videos but had to this time. You are such a fresh breath of air. I am a fellow Christian and I am so inspired by your story. What you shared is life changing, sincere and heartfelt. May God continue to bless your journey and those lucky enough to be touched by your light....like me.
Thank you for the inspiration. I have been thinking of starting an online shop for my crochet items and other hair bands and stuff, but had been feeling a little unsure of myself. You boosted my confidence.
So appreciate all you have shared here and speaking of your own life and struggles. I have really buckled down since the past Christmas season writing down my business goals for 2019. I felt like ok Lord if you want me to keep doing my business then it has to get so much busier with more money coming in. I have trusted him and he has not let me down. Oh the faith he has grown. Bless you and thanks for encouragement.
I cannot tell you how much this is hitting home with me on so many levels. I completely agree that once you start the flow of energy from God, Universe, whichever - you just can't stop it! Thank you for sharing!!
Wow I had no idea I would hear from the Lord when I clicked on your video. Thank you so much for your encouragement. I've been fearful for YEARS about starting my own business on etsy. I've also prayed about it. This week I made up my mind I would just do it. My husband is a veteran with PTSD so staying home to care for him is my inspiration. Great video. Much more than I expected when I clicked on your video.
Thank you for this video! I was meant to see it and found it very helpful; just what I needed to hear. I pray for abundance and blessings in your life, as your message has blessed and inspired me 😊. Peace and light 🙏☀️
So happy to have found you! God bless you for sharing what you have learned and inspiring those of us who have been afraid to step out and learn what we need to know to be successful online.
Hey I'm only been crocheting for a year but I'm still learning and watching people who inspire me and you have gave me some good tips I'll definitely be watching but right now my husband is the only one who is working I'm afraid im not good enough to sell or have the money to sell on line because I don't drive I have panic attacks and but I will find a way to try reach out and help other thank you for your help your awesome
Hi Julie thanks for sharing this I have gone through all of the doubts ,the ie I don't think I am good enough etc . me and my husband have been doing crafts for over 12 yrs at our church craft fair but now we are ready to spread our world to others
Hi Julie this is absolute Gold that you’re sharing. Thank you so so much for this message. I have been selling on Etsy for a while now and can’t seem to get things going.....after watching your video I’m rearing to go. You talked about the Lord Speaking to you through email, The Lord has truly spoken to me through you....even to the fact that you posted this video on my actual birthday. Thank you once again. You’re an Angel x
Thank you for your inspiration! You are special and it is so strange this video came up at just the right time. I am hoping I can quit my FT job so I can pursue a career in online craft sales, and inspiring women and home decor series!
That's a great dream! You would definitely benefit from Jennifer's free workshop then. It starts Thursday but join now. southerncharmwreaths.com/jenniferallwood
So encouraging. I really need to get pushed into doing a business with my crafts I make. I always doubt myself, with pretty much everything. I will start doing the research I need to do. Let’s see where I can get in 90 days.
How about I am a stay at home mom and be proud of it. But I know how you feel and I glad you are doing well and helping others reach their dreams. Thank you.
I want you know what a difference you have made for me... I'm retired and I just didn't know what to do. I saw you and Lori on UA-cam and I was wondering, Could I do that? I watch one of you inspiring video on how you started. I didn't have any money to buy Christmas gifts for anyone, and it broke my heart. But your video inspired me to try and make them something. All my gifts were home made from my kitchen table. Your sooooo special for so many. I'm not computer savvy at all and I don't understand etsy either. I take what I make now to craft shows in my area. Bless you for caring and sharing your knowledge.....
Thank you so much for sharing this!! I know I make a difference and so honored God is using me this way. It brings me so much happiness to help and inspire others. I hope we can all accomplish peace, love and joy through crafting. ❤️
Thank you for sharing😊 I'm a crafter and this Saturday with be the first Art show I will be in. I'm praying that it will take off and others will like my wreaths. God Bless✌🏼
We have been making jewelry since 2012 and started our Etsy shop in 2013 just to support our hobby. I let it go for a few years up until last year after I couldn't work anymore because of back problems. . My Husband supports us but now the jewelry making is my job so I can continue to afford to keep my horse who I have had since he was 6 months old. I will try your ideas, thank you for sharing. I have made a couple sales last week after working harder on taking better pictures. Custom orders have picked up too. I like them best because I can make the items to the customers specifications and I find more enjoyment from that because their pendant is that much more special when they helped design it.. And it takes less guesswork for me. Besides taking more time with the pictures I plan to make more You Tube videos showing how we make the jewelry step by step. I don't want to have to sell my horse so I am very motivated to try anything to make more sales. Thank you for sharing your knowledge ❤
Julie, you are so awesome!! Thank you so much for sharing this with everyone. You are truly a blessing. My husband asked if you are my twin sister, because you and I are so much alike. I just recently got a shed to work my wreath business because I've got wreath supplies all over the house. How do I know which wreaths ppl are looking at on my Etsy shop? That was very interesting to learn. You are such a great teacher. Also, where'd you find the cabinets that are in your office behind you? How do I attrack ppl to my Etsy shop when there are so many wreaths on Etsy?
Thank you for your video on how to use key words for your title ect. I have been on Etsy selling curtains, but now it has been very slow, and much competition. I just get very discouraged at times. I will be changing my key words and see if this helps. Thank you again. Bellas Home Decor.
Julie you inspire me I am a watercolourist nature scenes I'm wanting to open up an Etsy shop I have cancer for the forth time so I want to do my best can I open an Etsy shop on a mobile I don't have a computer ♥️ thank you so so so much for your beautiful spirit xx I've never sold on line I don't even have social media 🦋 it's not about the money it's my dream
Everything happens for a reason Julie! I’m hoping you can take me through the steps of starting my own group. I love to teach and my audience is waiting for me to start a group. I need to know what steps to put in place to be successful! Thank you! 😊
You CAN overcome just like me. Do it scared.. All of it. Don't expect perfection, just completion. Join Jennifer's free workshop here southerncharmwreaths.com/jenniferallwood
Me encantaria que ese video de tan gran importancia me llegaria reproducido al español para poderlo entender mejor ya que estoy interesada en esos conocimientos de como crecerce en grande para hacer realidad uno de mis sueños de tener mi propio negoció, gracias y que Dios le siga bendiciendo en gran manera su bello arte decorativo.
I haven't tried to sell on line yet. My children want me to. But I'm afraid that my wreaths are not as good as the ones I see on line. What is Jennifer's last name? I can't afford to buy books yet. Thank you for sharing......
Hi sweet lady, Could you please tell me where the link is to get to see Jennifer? Thank you You are sure a positive, inspiration and motivator. I’m taking my ability to create to a new depth. Blessings, Jo Anne
Thank you, I have been making wreaths for the last 5 years . I have taken the last year off to be with my mom , sadly she lost her battle and went to heaven at the end of November. I have never had to branch out and sell my wreaths other than locally . I practiced and made my mom very happy with some beautiful wreaths and flower arrangements. The local website I would sell my wreaths on , I practically would be giving them away . It's hard to sell wreaths locally. No one want a to pay more than 35.00-40.00 a wreath. I get no profit , I just put it in my head it was a another practice wreath. I am remodeling my craft room and mentally preparing myself to start making wreaths again. My husband mention craft shows , do you know much about selling at craft shows ?
Thank you for your advice. I try to make money from my art and I recently had this nudging from God that its not just about the money. I understand about the reaching out and discovering things about myself but I also was like but the money I need. I guess the money needs to be the after thought but like you said it gets a little discouraging. Maybe I should do something else along with my etsy shop. At least this youtube video has got me thinking other things besides money.
I want to sell on Etsy so bad but I can’t because I’m from St. Lucia. 😩 Now as I finally decided what I want to sell, went to open an account 2 days ago but my country isn’t listed.
Hi Julie first I want to let you know I'm new to your page. I found you on you tube which I love. My first Question is what is your full name? Is that how I look you up on other sites . I want to start my own home business and I saw you have your owe classes along with Jennifer Allwood. Can you send me information on where I go to find those classes ? Thank you Gina Sanchez
Hello When covid happen I was pushed to quit my job and homeschool my son. Covid uncertainty also pushed me to want to learn to make things. Since 2020 I've been selling wood signs, wreaths, shirts, mugs, etc.. I've been selling lots of things from home. Now it has become slow and etsy has been a failure for me. I'm discouraged 😞 don't know what to do. I need to make money 💰 the economy is so bad that it's choking our bank.
A handmade business takes time and a lot of effort. Those selling less expensive items are being effected the most because their clientele is suffering the most. I still sell $300 wreaths so the economy is only bad for some, not all. Hard to give detailed advice in the comments on a video but there are ways to sell in this economy. Never quit.
Completely disagree! There are many who have full time Etsy shops as a living. However I think any smart business owner should diversify. Etsy is a starting point. Not the end of the journey for a creative business
Hi Julie, thank you for your inspiration. Iam a widowed mother of 10 children. I work part time and have an Etsy. store too Poppysprops, I too am wondering if I should give up my day job and concentrate on my Etsy store. We go to church every week and I pray too and believe the good Lord helps us and looks after every single one of us. God bless you and your family.

I don't want to have to sell my horse so I am very motivated to try anything to make more sales. Thank you for sharing your knowledge ❤
Yes the cup of coco wreath
Julie, you are so awesome!! Thank you so much for sharing this with everyone. You are truly a blessing. My husband asked if you are my twin sister, because you and I are so much alike. I just recently got a shed to work my wreath business because I've got wreath supplies all over the house. How do I know which wreaths ppl are looking at on my Etsy shop? That was very interesting to learn. You are such a great teacher. Also, where'd you find the cabinets that are in your office behind you? How do I attrack ppl to my Etsy shop when there are so many wreaths on Etsy?
Thank you for your video on how to use key words for your title ect. I have been on Etsy selling curtains, but now it has been very slow, and much competition. I just get very discouraged at times. I will be changing my key words and see if this helps. Thank you again. Bellas Home Decor.

I haven't tried to sell on line yet. My children want me to. But I'm afraid that my wreaths are not as good as the ones I see on line. What is Jennifer's last name? I can't afford to buy books yet. Thank you for sharing......

Do we have to have a website besides Etsy ?
Thank you, I have been making wreaths for the last 5 years . I have taken the last year off to be with my mom , sadly she lost her battle and went to heaven at the end of November.
I have never had to branch out and sell my wreaths other than locally . I practiced and made my mom very happy with some beautiful wreaths and flower arrangements.
The local website I would sell my wreaths on , I practically would be giving them away . It's hard to sell wreaths locally. No one want a to pay more than 35.00-40.00 a wreath. I get no profit , I just put it in my head it was a another practice wreath.
I am remodeling my craft room and mentally preparing myself to start making wreaths again. My husband mention craft shows , do you know much about selling at craft shows ?
Prayers to you.
I have done , so many crafts , when I am selling my craft, nobody not buying, I fed up all this, so give any suggestions to sale my craft in online.
Thank you for your advice. I try to make money from my art and I recently had this nudging from God that its not just about the money. I understand about the reaching out and discovering things about myself but I also was like but the money I need. I guess the money needs to be the after thought but like you said it gets a little discouraging. Maybe I should do something else along with my etsy shop. At least this youtube video has got me thinking other things besides money.
Hello I tried the free classes, but the link doesn’t work.
Yea this is a very old video
I have an Etsy shop and I need help I love making wreaths amd I been trying so hard to get sales but in 3 months I have 1 sell please help
hi i just lost my job and im trying to start selling my things could you help me ?
I want to sell on Etsy so bad but I can’t because I’m from St. Lucia. 😩 Now as I finally decided what I want to sell, went to open an account 2 days ago but my country isn’t listed.
Hi Julie first I want to let you know I'm new to your page. I found you on you tube which I love. My first Question is what is your full name? Is that how I look you up on other sites . I want to start my own home business and I saw you have your owe classes along with Jennifer Allwood. Can you send me information on where I go to find those classes ? Thank you Gina Sanchez
Thank you 😊
Hello
When covid happen I was pushed to quit my job and homeschool my son. Covid uncertainty also pushed me to want to learn to make things. Since 2020 I've been selling wood signs, wreaths, shirts, mugs, etc.. I've been selling lots of things from home. Now it has become slow and etsy has been a failure for me. I'm discouraged 😞 don't know what to do. I need to make money 💰 the economy is so bad that it's choking our bank.
A handmade business takes time and a lot of effort. Those selling less expensive items are being effected the most because their clientele is suffering the most. I still sell $300 wreaths so the economy is only bad for some, not all. Hard to give detailed advice in the comments on a video but there are ways to sell in this economy. Never quit.
Etsy doesn’t pay bills roof or food clothing etc
Completely disagree! There are many who have full time Etsy shops as a living.
However I think any smart business owner should diversify. Etsy is a starting point. Not the end of the journey for a creative business
Southern Charm Wreaths website is still $300 per yr for fickle viewers
Tanks for the great Video
GOD is amazing ♥️
Where is the best place to sell I heard Etsy is not any good
Are you on the west coast? GREAT VIDEO
sharon neufeld no the East coast.
Hi Julie, thank you for your inspiration. Iam a widowed mother of 10 children. I work part time and have an Etsy. store too Poppysprops,
I too am wondering if I should give up my day job and concentrate on my Etsy store. We go to church every week and I pray too and believe the good Lord helps us and looks after every single one of us.
God bless you and your family.
