Zazzle Adventures 1

I have been working non stop on my sites and figuring out how to use Twitter to the fullest. 

 I just did not understand how using Twitter was of any use to me. I have no friends or family that I contact online and it just seemed so random. Sending out Twits to God knows who. What made a difference was the installation of TweetDeck.  The neatest part of this is that you can send out your tweet to multiple places which saves the headache of opening and signing in to anything you might have. It makes having a MySpace account, a Facebook account and separate Twitter accounts worth having. Like I said I do not have anyone to send personal stuff to and sending out things about myself seemed silly. Now I am actually hoping to create a network of some kind.

I love setting up the pages and making them my own with neat backgrounds and colors making Facebook a bit of a disappointment. There are no options to let you customize your space. My favorite place to do these set ups is at Zazzle. I have actually opened over 12 store fronts.

I was starting an adventure with my first store. I had recently fell in love with designing fractal's and putting them up on Deviant Art was nice but why not try and make some $$. My gallery at DA
My first store took a bit of thinking about - I wanted it to have the perfect name and all. When I signed up it was late at night and I was tiered. I wanted to use my eBay ID to keep things straight for myself because after a couple years I accumulated quite a few ID's and passwords making life a living hell at times. When I signed up for my account I typed the name in wrong and instead of kashmier like at my eBay store "All Vintage Photographs" I now have kahmier. I figured I would adjust it later but you can not change you ID because that is what they use to name your URL so I just became used to kahmier.

I picked the original ID used on eBay "kashmier" because my favorite band/group is Led Zeppelin. It was hard getting an ID that wasn't used 10 years ago, today you have to pretty much take the closest you can get. Although I signed up for a Yahoo email account the other night and I just used what I was thinking wantaburger and it was good.  :)

I chose the name Inspired Ambitions for my site, below is a screen shot of the main page. I still work on it but not near as much as I used to.

Then as the holidays started to approach I started putting together things that were just for the holiday and I was getting very unorganized in my store. I then decided to open up what I like to call a "Sister Store". I believe the first one was "HalloweenStuff"

The fee for setting up a store is $0.00 so you can see how easily tempted to set up multiple shops one can be. I had started my first store on Cafepress . They charge a monthly fee for a shop that keeps more than one design and I did not know if I was going to make enough to cover it and ended up closing it.

With Christmas on the horizon I decided to open a shop for my Christmas items and ended up with

 "Christmas House"

After this Zazzle introduces a new product that I just had to try to design and I loved it. That is how the next shop was started.

"Sneaky Soles"

I was making bridal stuff and again my main shop was getting too big so I opened another.

"Brides R Us"

There are still more to be added along with some story on how they came about. Stop by anyone of the shops and I am sure you will locate something you like. If you start out at Inspired Ambitions you can get to any of the other stores from there.

Halloween Stuff

I was shocked when I checked my email and one of my Halloween designs sold today. I am still thinking summer. I figured I would put together a bunch of designs that are Halloween inspired for you all to enjoy. Click on the image to see an enlargement or purchase from dozens of quality items with this or other Halloween designs on them.
Choose from the following products.

# T-Shirts # Embroidery # Pet Clothing - New!
# Custom Stamps # Skateboards # Custom Shoes
# Prints & Posters # Greeting Cards # Mugs
# Mouse pads # Buttons # Magnets
# Bumper Stickers # Postcards

One great thing to do is get cards and add matching postage stamps.

Some lucky kids will get to partake in these neat items. Matching shoes with bags and hoodies / shirts.



An ultimate combination of items that are both quality and something the kids will look at over and over again. I had a bad Trick or Treat night once and now I see what I needed to take it from yuck to a positive and fun event. I have 3 brothers and I am the youngest, the only girl, one year I was so happy to go as a ghost but little did I know that not having the correct foot wear could prove disastrous and it did. I tripped not once, not twice but a few times and every fall cost me both scrapped knees and lost treats :( That was the ultimate bummer. Because I insisted on carrying a plastic pumpkin to carry my stash I lost half of it. The other thing I recall about Halloween was it just getting dark and mom announcing that the coats would have to go on because it was tooo cold out. Well that just threw another wrench into the whole enchanted evening, So here is my contribution to our youth and my favorite holiday ....... Cool sneakers to ground the kids, a matching bag that is easy to carry,is really roomy for all that booty and here comes the best part. IT ZIPS CLOSE ......... And to keep mom happy there is a matching Hoodie to finish off the set. No more rotten Halloween nights with this collection at HALLOWEEN STUFF.
