August was surprisingly an even better month than July for me. My little handmade clothing store finally began to make a profit, and I received some great feedback from buyers too. I even had a few international sales and it makes me smile to think of children overseas wearing Ember and Friends clothing. My stats for August are below:

Plans for September
I’m still not really spending a great deal of time making new items for my shop at the minute. I have a ton of stock that’s ready to ship anyway, so I’ll probably just focus on restocking my best selling lines and the odd random make out of any spare fabric I have. I’ve only got two months now until I close for maternity leave as well so it’s not like I need to keep building stock up for the Christmas rush this year.
