Save up! I put aside a little money every time I get paid from my day job or from Bird Trouble sales.

Hi Jasmine! I'd definitely check out Wicker Park but you won't find cheap there. I stay in the suburbs to find cheap vintage items at thrift stores and antique stores. I have yet to find a "cheap" place in the city.

ahahah! I have a fast metabolism. I've always been really thin... I can't help it. I'm positive if my metabolism wasn't fast... I wouldn't look like this... 100% positive.

I completely agree! I did a blog post on packaging in January because I think it's extremely important for the customer to know they're buying something that a lot of love went into.
Here's the blog post:

The profit that I make from my shop really varies from month to month. I don't really want to give exact numbers but some months, I only make $500 and other months, I can make $700. Right before the holidays, it was crazy busy and really successful! This past month was slower but still successful with returning customers and customer orders. I only have my phone bill and my tuition to pay so I can squeeze by... but I hope it gets busy enough to where I can rent my own place soon.

Thank Kelsi! Congratulations on winning too! :)

Yay! I'm glad you loved your package! I love packaging my orders. The Bird Trouble stamp that I use was created by Modern Art Stamps on Etsy. I sometimes use a bird stamp, if I don't forget, and that's from Michaels Crafts. Other than that... I sometimes use a To: label that I designed on picnik, put it onto word, and printed it out on computer paper (that I buy from thrift stores!). I really love incorporating paper doilies in my packaging also.

If you're talking about www.birdtroublehandmade.weebly.com,
I made that with the help of weebly. Weebly.com is so easy to work with! I plan on getting a more professional website in the future, but that one is good for now. -
Haha! Well thank you! I just use www.picnik.com to add borders, add words to them, or stickers. I love picnik because it's free! You can pay to use some extra special tools but I like the basic tools good enough. :)
