Buying everything from an Etsy shop with zero sales.

What? Yes yes. The recent Steady Craftin' computer fundraiser auction went so well that we decided to seek out an Etsy shop with zero sales, and buy everything from them. We'll be sending these items to some Patreon supporters, and also one of the items I want to give to my wife.
Hopefully I'll be able to start making videos more quickly with the new computer.
I make videos every week, thanks to direct support.
If you would like to help Steady Craftin keep on going (and receive some extras too), please consider becoming a direct supporter here:

Steady Craftin videos are made with the help of DIRECT SUPPORT: www.patreon.com/steadycraftin (You'll also get access to the printable 3D scans of my original sculpted figures, MP3s, exclusive behind-the-scenes videos, shop discounts, and more.) My family and I are so grateful that I get to do this.

I thought the exact same thing. Unfortunately, crocheted items have to be priced frustratingly low for the work put into them to be competitive on Etsy (speaking from experience). Her items were very nice, though, and Crafsman absolutely just made her whole year!

Even if it’s just a little item or two - we all want or need something.. and better to someone else than another run to Walmart ☺️ Way to go Crafsman & Mama! 👌💯👏👏👏. I’m sure that person is sooo truly touched by seeing their sales today they are doing the HAPPY DANCE 💃 .. and planning & talking .. their confidence just skyrocketed and the world is right again! 🌹🌹🌹 Thank you for the best example.. we can all do a little something 💜

After a lot of sanding and polishing it is almost done. I'll be gifting it to a friend who is very slow with mailing things out. 😋 There will be a video of the making out soon!
