2015 goals

This year I want to be more productive in a business way and start selling my work and becoming more professional. I want my work to turn into a business rather than a hobby. I can't wait for whats to come this year. Here are my goals for the upcoming year:

Business goals
  • Start selling  online: Etsy, Folksy and Storenvy are my main 3. 
  • Make some business cards
  • Design and upload a website. 
  • Take part in at least one craft fair, but hopefully more!
  • Make and sell products for the 3 major holidays- Valentines day, Halloween and christmas. 
  • Explore more print techniques. I really want to learn woodcut this year. 
Personal goals
  • Start learning Japanese.
  • Carry on saving money for my 3rd trip to Japan.
  • Skydiving!
  • Visit at least 2 places in England- Edinburgh and Bath are high up on my list.
  • Crochet something using my own pattern.
  • Start making my own clothes.
