My first step..

Finally i decided to participate in one of the events in my city. actually this is after i get the full support and help from my family and my husband. 

The story started when my sister told me about an event will be handled at her work place to sell the handmade items and suggested me to participate with my baby's accessories. 

My family encourage me to try it out and they were ready to help me. 

we had 2 weeks timeline before the event starts. so we started making large quantity of each accessory type. 

here is one type. 

 and another type 

at the same time my husband started designing a background stand. he showed me 3 options.

option 1:

option 2:

option 3:

also he designed the sticker label to stick it on each bag. the sticker included my logo, item type code, price  and my contact details. 

here is how it looks like:

and another one:

A stand designed by me to display the accessories items. 

finally here is the output stand :) 

Overall my self and my family were so excited. but we were shocked that the event was not organized to the lever were we expecting. but it was nice experience and it give me the power to do more towards moving this hobby to a business.
