Grand Opening!

Good Morning!

I definitely have exciting news for a Monday!

Today I present to you - my etsy shop: 


I am so thrilled to finally be up and running!  There will be lots of additions to the shop along with even more changes in the coming weeks but I have been so excited about this I couldn't stand it for another second, much less a few more weeks!  I had to show yall now!

First, I'm sure you're wondering how I picked Moxie Made.  If you remember, almost a year ago, I asked for ideas for my Etsy shop name!  Well it honestly came down to two suggestions from y'all!  Jimmy's or Moxie Made.  I debated forever.  And finally figured that Jimmy's might seem a little odd.  Since I'm not a guy.  And I'm selling girly and baby handmade goods.  I didn't feel like "Jimmy's" quite fit the profile.  Also, I thought more and more about Moxie Made and the more I thought about it, the more in love I became.    I also decided to include the definition up at the top just because I feel like it definitely depicts what I'm going for with my shop.  Fun and quirky.  Not taking myself too seriously, because where is the fun in that?

I'm sure you've noticed by now that the blog has changed a bit as well.  I decided to incorporate it into my shop.  But relax [ha! - I'm sure you were getting worried!], I will still be posting the same crazy stuff - like the husband's modeling careermy many run-ins with bananasmy experience with baby powder, and photoshoot sneak peeks.  All of that fun stuff will remain the same.

But in addition to that, there will be more regular posting, updates of new products coming to the shop, discounts offered, and some great giveaways!  The website has also changed.  You will be redirected here if you go to grahamcrakas.blogspot.com or you can just go to moxiemadeblog.com!

And then there's another thing.  I've created a Moxie Made Facebook page.  I'll be updating this with new products and would love for you to add pictures of you enjoying your Moxie Made purchases!  Please click over and "Like" my page.  
And, speaking of Facebook, I also added a link to the Jenny Lynn Photography page up top.  I'd love for you to check it out!

Okay, enough talking for one day.  How about we move on to the exciting part?

A giveaway to kick things off right!



A new summer keychain :)

  27. I would like to see a wallet (much like the checkbook cover) and I seem to remember you showing a small zippered bag a while back that was super cute. You also made a really cute weekend bag for FMIL, I think, that was super cute. You should work on adding those to your shop.
