Accidental Etsy Shop
In 2018, I was researching different methods on how to organize my busy life better.
It was by chance when I came across a planner from Erin Condren. I knew I needed inspirations so I signed up on Instagram and Facebook groups. There was a whole community of like minded individuals that I had no idea existed. I was completely immersed into the planner community.
I bought a Silhouette Portrait to draw and make my own stickers. There was no turning back when I first saw someone DIY’d their own page marker and dividers. At the time there were no YouTube videos on how to design and make your own dividers. I didn’t even know how to use my portrait. Through trial and error and many experimentations, I designed my first scallop shaped edge and attached custom words to it. I couldn’t believe how cute this can look in my planner. Little did I know of the reaction when I first posted photos of them on my Instagram. I actually thought that people would hate it and think it has nothing to do with planning. But I couldn’t be more wrong.
Many have asked if I can make these dividers for them and eventually urged me to open an Etsy shop.
And the rest is history….
