Support Your Friends

 I'm going to step out of my medical sphere for a minute and talk about a different kind of support... when I lost my last job, I just didn't feel healthy enough to get another part-time job, so I took a couple coaching/outreach positions and decided to focus more on my design and art. The two positions are currently not in play for different reasons, so my only income for last few months has been through graphic design, Etsy, and other various selling platforms I'm on. And quite honestly, I'm not doing well.

Don't get me wrong, I'm selling and becoming more known through my sales, social media, and Pinterest, just not enough to comfortably make it through another month.. and everything I saved while I had those other jobs is quickly going away. So I'm currently learning more about Pinterest to boost attention, but I also need your help.

By help, I mean pretty much anything helps! Comment on this post, even if it's just an emoji; likes are great, but comments get the post seen by more people. Comment on my posts on my Team Tsunami page to get that seen more as well. Re-pin my products on Pinterest, find me on Instagram. If you've purchased something from me, leave a review... if you can't leave a review, post a photo and tag me, I will happily repost! Tag someone you think will like what I do. And definitely go shopping!


And while I'm here, here's information on my various platforms:

Etsy: I make the string doll keychains, trial map necklaces, and decals; the stickers have been made from my artwork; I hand paint the hats and can use pretty much any of my decal designs for them; and the clothing (mostly leggings and neck gaiters) are my designs, but made by another company... the leggings are seriously my favorite, SO soft and comfortable (I do have full length and plus size options, just let me know!)

Spreadshirt (shirt shop in the shopping link): I've had this shop for a while, the shirts and printing are great quality.. pretty much all of my shirts have come from this site. And again, I do have more shirt/hoodie options I can look through if you're looking for something specific. 

Redbubble: my new favorite! They place my artwork on SO many things! And the prices are good and I've heard good things about the various products from friends who have ordered.. hoodies, stickers, pouches, phone cases, shirts (for women's sizes, make sure you look at the sizing charts, they do seem small; I've only ordered mens). I'm currently obsessed with the shower curtains, pillows, and giant scarf ;)

Spoonflower (fabric shop in the shopping link): unfortunately expensive, but it comes fast. My mom has made some awesome things from the cotton and the denim (my wheelchair cover!), and a friend just made me an awesome skirt from the swim fabric. At the moment, I just have adaptive and rowing patterns on there, but if you want one of my designs on fabric, let me know!


THANK YOU!!
