Drum roll please...... I Shipped out my first international Etsy order!
I am officially an INTERNATIONAL SMALL BUSINESS OWNER!
And I have a Customs receipt from the post office to prove it!
I shipped pair of Pants to a lady in Italy - pink Liz Claiborne stirrup pants actually. It's funny and awesome to think how fashion and style are so different from place to place. I am also glad to know that there are people in the world that are cooler and trendier than I could ever hoped to be. :)
When I got home from the post office, two other international Etsians appeared in my message box. One in Germany interested in a pair of brown heels. Another trendy lady in Australia requested a reserve on a disco-fabulous pink dress.
Interesting fact - Australian customs prohibits the import of (among other things):
*Radioactive materials
*Seditious literature
*Silencers on firearms
*Used bedding
I suppose these things seem obvious, but in all seriousness wondering whether 'vintage linens' counts as 'used bedding'?
But anyway.... the moral of the story is.....not to 'toot my own horn' but......Toot! Toot!......I am awesome! haha ;)
Cheers!
