Positive Feedback

How much do I love it? Swoon.

It's a rare enough occasion that I actually manage to make a sale on Etsy, but even rarer (about half the time or less, unless it's, you know, my mom) does the buyer ever stop back to leave me any feedback at all. It is such a rush when they do. I'm shaking a bit as I type this, since today is one of those rare times.

From someone who bought a custom set of coasters from me, a couple weeks before x-mas: "This was a wonderful first experience on Etsy. My friend loved these high quality Final Fantasy coasters, and they arrived in time for Christmas. Thanks so much! I would definitely buy from Melanie again."

Squeeeeeal! This totally makes my week. And I was having a rather crummy day, getting down on myself and etc. Horrible case of the hiccups. Now I can't stop smiling.

Life is good. Validation makes such a big difference when you've been plugging away at something for so long, and not seeing much in the way of results.

(At this point I make a dramatic contented sigh, and sign off.)
