Ok so my shop is up and running with 15% discounts until 1-9-11. I don't want to go on and on about it, but I have been learning alot about promoting and making my shop more appealing to customers. I sold a ton of stuff at a craft fair at work and I really would like to get my etsy sales in line with craft fair sales. Enough of that........
So just an update on Mist and Donny. Donny is getting big and is a little pistol. He doesn't like being walked around without his momma (Mist). He is still adorable and we continue to work with him to get him ready to show at Great Western Alpaca Show (GWAS).
Mist is pregnant again and we are hoping for a rose grey baby in the spring. Mist is a rose grey color. I just took all of her wonderful fiber and skirted it, getting all of the hay and stuff out of it, and sent it to get spun into yarn. I can't wait to get it back and work it up for a nice hat or Underwear for Doug...lol He always asks me for a pair of knitted underwear.. What a goof he is.
If you don't know who Doug is, he is my boyfriend, bestfriend, alpaca buddy and much much more. Yes, he is the one in the picture with our cutie pie Donny.
I will be learning how to proficiently spin so that I can process Mist's and Donny's fiber myself next year.
Another new and exciting thing that has happend is that we are moving to Ft. Lupton from Arvada. We are moving to a place that has a few acres for our alpacas. I am so excited, I never thought we would be on our way this soon. Mist and Donny are at the farm we bought them from right now in Bennett Colorado. We will soon have them on our little farm and be able to see them all the time. We only get to see them once a week right now.
Sweet, I will be back in a few days as I got to get packing my house up for the move. You all know what that is like. Until then...........
