Get Your Groove on With a Tye-Dye T-Shirt

Get Your Groove on With a Tye-Dye T-Shirt

Get Your Groove on With a Tye-Dye T-Shirt. We are closing down the hand Tye-Dye t-shirt line as my youngest daughter is taking that business with her when she moves down south next month. She is trying to sell as much as she can to help fund her move to Ft. Myers where she and her friends will be helping the area residents rebuild. She does an excellent job creating these tees and has fun experimenting with the different methods. Once there she will be doing odd jobs and selling the T-Shirts she has to get some new supplies to create more cool, vibrant designs when she gets set-up. Today, we are offering 25% OFF all her designs until March 1, 2023 when she must leave. Get Your orders in now so we can get them in the mail and she will have some traveling money.

Happy Holidays and Last Day to Order

Hello, and Happy holidays everyone. The last day to order anything from us us fast approaching but the Print on Demand merchandise and still be able to get it delivered through regular mail. The Print on Demand companies we use both Printful and Printify have their own ending dates for this holiday season.

Trying New Digital Marketing Techniques

Our small handicraft business is trying out new digital marketing techniques this past month and in the weeks to come. Being in our little shop in Chiefland is no longer feasible and we will have to close soon. With this dang Covid thing, my mom being sick more than she is well, my own arthritis kicking up a storm, and not being able to spend too much on gas. Well, ya’ll all know how that goes.

Going strictly online selling requires a whole different set of tools. So we are exploring Google Products Free Listings, Facebook Online Shop Free Listings, Pinterest Regularly Schedule Posts and Pins, and creating more short videos to share on all of them including our TikTok Account. We are like our fellow crafters’ posts, occasionally remembering to make comments and sharing those as well. Once we have figured out a doable routine of posting we will share that and some of our results on our Southern Women Crafts Business Blog. If you haven’t subscribed to that one yet check it out.

In the meantime, if you are in the Chiefland, Florida area during the weekends please check our Facebook page to see if one of the Southern Women Crafters is able to be in the shop. As of today, it looks like we have a commitment from Katie for Friday and Saturday (10 am to around 2 pm)

 

P.S.

If you have any questions about our handcrafted or even our print-on-demand designs please feel free to send us an email through our CONTACT form. For some reason, we are having trouble getting all of our calls from our toll-free number and our regular number lately. Thank you for your patience.

Chiefland Shop Hours and Days Changing

Chiefland Shop Hours and Days Changing

From now until the end of September 2021, our Chiefland shop hours and days will be changing. The weather is just too dang hot to sit in a metal box for the weekend and there are just not enough shoppers to pay us to keep it open all the time. We will still have our online stores opened, of course, and anything you buy we will ship out on Mondays, Wednesdays, or Fridays. When the weather cools off and the snowbirds come back in the late fall and winter months we will again be available every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday from 10 and to 3 pm.

In the meantime, we will announce on our Facebook page the morning we are able to open the shop during the summer months. Right now it is looking like once or twice a month on Saturdays. Please like, share, comment, and follow on our social media pages and this website to keep abreast of our happenings.

We will not be idle though. During the summer months, we often take all of our crocheted items down for cleaning. We wash and thoroughly dry each item, retag and take new pictures. This takes quite a bit of time and we usually go in groups. So, all the scarves will be done first, then hats, etc., etc., etc.  We will be increasing the inventory and the prices for all of our goods in the Fall. So, BUY NOW, before we have our product price increase.

If you have any questions or suggestions for our new Print-on-Demand line please use our CONTACT US form. We do try to weed out the spam mail we get from here so be patient if we accidentally spammed you. Just Direct Message us on Facebook with your email address and I will add you to the approved list.
