Yikes, it's been 6 months since my last blog post!
ZigZags & Zebras is still doing well, although I don't get nearly as much time to work on it as there are just too many other things occupying my time right now. Hopefully in a few weeks when school is over, I'll have a little more free time on my hands to give some much needed TLC to ZigZags & Zebras. I have some great ideas for some new products that I will be showcasing on the blog soon.
In the meantime, you can shop for our products online at http://www.zigzagsandzebras.etsy.com
Our clips can also be found in these two great stores
The Little Cupcake Shoppe in SE Calgary, AB (http://www.thelittlecupcakeshoppe.ca/index.php)
Buttercups Children's Boutique in Ladner, BC

So twitter is way easier to keep up with. My blog is still suffering from my lack of attention.
I've also been busy with two new store orders, my freelance work and trying to get ready for Christmas.
I am behind on my Christmas shopping, no time yet to even think about Christmas cards and I don't think there will be any time for any Christmas baking. Thankfully my mom is nearby and bakes up a storm at Christmas, my husband and kids won't actually be deprived of all the yummy goodies of the season.

Busy! Busy! Busy!
Long delay since my last post....sigh!
Not enough hours in my day to get everything done...big sigh!
I have gone back to work full time. While I am so very fotunate that I can work from home, I just seem to keep up with the kids and the mess and the other household chores that need to get done during the day. It seems that if I'm not working, I'm cleaning up after kids which leaves little time for fun things like blogging and working on ZigZags & Zebras.
I hope over the next couple of weeks everything will settle down and things get back to normal.
Maybe this is what normal is? Time will tell.

September promo is now over
I spent the last month running my friends online shop while she was away on business.
She sells hazelwood necklaces. It is believed that hazelwood has the medicinal property of absorbing and neutralizing the body's acidity through contact with the skin. Wearing one of the necklaces will help to relieve or prevent ailments such as migraines, acid reflux, heart burn, nausea, arthritis, skin problems etc.

It was a great experience to run her shop. I got to experience all that is involved in having your own online business. There were very few hiccups along the way, which was a good thing!
During the month, we gave away a hairclip for each order that was made through Tiny Teethers.
I ended up sending out 56 clips. Now I wait and see if any of those give clips will generate any new customers for ZigZags & Zebras. Fingers crossed!

Zibbet
Just joined Zibbet today. Heard of them through an etsy forum.
Seems to be very similar to etsy, no listing fees and no commission, for now.
Another way to get the word out about ZigZags & Zebras!
See if it generates any more sales. The upside is that there aren't nearly as many people selling the same things as me.
