November's Featured Crow!!!!!
I started crafting & selling about 4 years ago, I decided to give ebay a try after I quit my job to visit family over Thanksgiving one year. My manager said I had to make a choice & I did!!! My family is more important to me & this has been one of the best decisions I have ever made!! I have been given the opportunity to do what I have always loved & have met so many wonderful people along the way!! This past year my business has really evolved & expanded...
In August, I joined the ebay group " A Gathering of Crows ", what an awesome group of ladies....always willing to help each other out w/ advice or just an open ear!! www.agatheringofcrows.com
September brought my new website... This has been a dream of mine since I started selling & has been a true joy to see come to life!! Look for many new additions over the next few months!! www.stitchinthedayaway.com
I also recently joined Etsy...I was unfamiliar with it, but my aunt was telling me about it so I decided to give it a try!! www.stitchinthedayaway.etsy.com
So with Thanksgiving approaching so quickly ~ I have so much to be thankful for this year! I truely am blessed to do what I love everyday & I thank each & every one of you for the opportunity you've given me!I look forward to many more years of sharing my primitves & I am always adding to my collection. Feel free to drop me a line w/ any questions, comments, or suggestions you may have!! ( megjay2000@comcast.net )
Wishing you all a very Happy Thanksgiving spending time w/ those you love & Happy Holiday Season filled love, joy, & good times with those you love!!! Take care....Megan

WE'RE FEATURING....
Welcome to AGOC's blog. I hope by reading this blog you will get some idea of how we got started with our eBay group. (We've worked together, developed wonderful friendships, and encourage one another create and sell primitives on eBay.)
Our group got started a little over two years ago. We were just a handful of friends that loved primitives and either sold on eBay or wanted to sell their creations on eBay. We all learned together, that's for sure! lol I can remember the days of saying, "What's a template for?," having never ever used one! lol. At the time AGOC got its start, there were a few ebay groups out there; however, they werent accepting any new members. Then, I had an idea. If all of us who wanted to be in a primitive group joined together and supported each other, we' could form our own eBay group and have a huge following. That's how we got started!
I have to say it was hard at first figuring out how to invite people and how to promote our group, but once it got going, and it took off we had a great time! We have built great friendships at AGOC. It has definitely been a great way to meet people that love the same things...primitives! We all do our own hand made items. (That is one thing that sets us apart from some eBay groups out there.) We don't sell imports or "ready made" things on the AGOC eBay page. We support each other and promote each other. We have had several advertisements in national magazines too! (That's been interesting too! lol) Who would've thought our small group would be advertising in such magazines!
We've also branched out a bit from eBay and now have an AGOC website. Several of our members sell primitives on this website: www.agatheringofcrows.com . (This is just one more perk to being a member of AGOC.)
I know I have learned so much from all the ladies and have made great friendships. I'm so glad to be apart of such a wonderful, inspirational group of ladies! Thanks ladies for making this "our" eBay group!
