Hello, Happy New Year!! January, the start of a fresh new year and a clean slate makes me very happy.  I feel blessed and wonderful to be able to run my own business on Etsy.  Working from home has been great and challenging at times due to the fact that I have six pets that now own me....they think that I am their maid, mama, entertainer, cook, and treat master.  My husband affords me the opportunity to be at home so I take my business very seriously.  I work daily toward growing my business Tea Stained Lace by adding new items to the shop, looking for bloggers to host giveaways, mailing out purchased items next day if possible, shopping for new items, organizing my inventory, following up with customers, and searching out new opportunities to build a customer base.  I just love this industry and have always wanted to have my own shop whether it was an actual thrift store, co-op booth in an antique mall or an online platform such as Etsy.  I really want to make everyday in 2014 count!!   So, kicking off this year with a Giveaway is the perfect way to ease in and no better blogger to do this than  PATTI, FROM NOT DEAD YET STYLE!!!  She is gracious enough to host a giveaway for a $20.00 gift certificate toward any item in my shop. Here are a few items that are available....take a look!!!
