It was 11th August 2020 at about 2:30pm when I heard a 'KERCHING' on my mobile, it was my eBay app. " NO WAY, my first sell on eBay". At first I didn't know what to do, running round like a headless chicken, I'd never had anything sell on eBay before so I was in shock !! I rang my mum & dad to tell them the news, they were just as shocked as me, (especially as they never thought my woven arts would never sell, until now !!).
When I got off the phone to them, I got everything ready, my lovely colourful bubblewrap style jiffy bags which are a metalic blue, got one of those to package my woven art in, along with a 'thank you' card & my 'business card',
all nicely sealed up with sellotape & labels stuck on the back & front, hardwritten by me of course, with my details on & the buyer's address (plenty of sellotape to keep them on, I didn't want them to come off in delivery now did I !!) as I know being a postie of course that the parcel would get lost & I knew if it didn't have the right postage on the buyer would have to pay their end or I'd get a bad review on eBay so I didn't want none of that.
I also text my four bestie mates on Whatsapp the good news of my first sell aswell, which they were all over moon for me x
The parcel was taken to my local post office after work, paid for & sent off to my happy first buyer which she got the next day & she gave me some lovely feedback about loving her purchase & it arriving quicker than what she thought, bless her I was over the moon !
(See photos below of the woven art that I sold).
Thank you so much for reading my blog post x
