Waiting for the Rush!

My hubby and I went to Wrightsville Beach, NC over Labor Day week.  We had an awesome time!  The weather was perfect and the beach was empty!  I just adore the beach!!!  My family went to some beach every year for vacation when I was growing up.

What amazes me though, is every time I am away from my shop, I receive orders!!!!  I had 6 orders while I was gone this time.  I contacted my fellow Etsians about it and it seems it happens to quite a few of them, also!  We all decided that we need to go away more often!!!

So now I am waiting for what I hope will be the holiday rush!  I know that I was very busy last holiday season and I certainly would like to be again this year.  I am praying that customers will not wait until the last minute to order custom items.  It makes me crazy and stressed to try to make things in time to ship for the holidays!  I don't want to disappoint customers.  I am also hoping that some of my stock will sell this holiday!  It would be wonderful to just put an item in a box and ship it as opposed to having to make an item and then ship it!

So I am waiting and hoping that it is not crazy but busy!!
