Supplies on Etsy

Apparently, I'm a little slow at things. I have always gone to the store to get supplies for my bags. Then, one day, it occurred to me that Etsy probably has some of things that I need. After a quick search, I was amazed. Not only is almost everything I need available on Etsy, it's actually WAY cheaper than the store, even with shipping, and I'm saving gas money too! AWESOME!!

For zippers, I was paying $1.29 each at a local store. Then I found ZipIt on Etsy. There, the pricing depends on how many you order. I prchased 35 9 inch zippers in my first order, and paid $.45 cents each. If you include the price of shipping, I paid $.55 each. Less than half of what I was paying in the store!! They have a huge variety of colors and sizes, and they are really friendly. They didn't have one of the colors I was looking for, so they ordered it, and let me know when it arrived. I'll definitely be ordering from there from now on.

Next, are my labels. I've always gotten my labels from Etsy, and I highly recommend Jennifer's Jewels. Her labels are gorgeous, durable, and her customer service is fantastic! For my first set of labels, I ordered one of her gorgeous designs, and had A Stone's Throw printed on them.
The second order I placed from her, we worked together to create a unique set of labels that matched my shop banner, and fit the mood of my shop better. Jennifer answered all of my questions and was wonderful to work with! I am thrilled with the way my new labels look, and you can expect to see them unveiled in the next few weeks!! She offers both iron on and sew in labels, so she's sure to have something to meet your needs!!


My logo was designed by Tracy Tessmer. She is an amazing photographer whom I met on Twitter. She is no longer doing design work, but her photography is worth checking out! I would honestly fly to Texas to work with her. She's that good!
Lastly, I just stumbled across BeingBags on Etsy. They have a lot of the minor details that my bags need: magnetic snaps, swivel clips, and D Rings. Their prices are just a bit lower than the prices are at the store, but they offer free shipping, and I am able to purchase larger quantities. I haven't placed my order yet, but with over 1770 feedback, and a 100% positive feedback rating, I'm feeling very confident that I will be happy with my order.
