Life sometimes forces people to stop and think. I've been in such a process for the last two years. I wanted to be self-sufficient, earn my own money and see that I could achieve something. So I took a step and opened my own store on Etsy. It was a small dream, but it was very precious to me.
At first, everything was very exciting. Choosing products, thinking about designs, taking photos... All of them felt very good to me. I started working especially on metal wall decors. It made me happy to produce something that touches people's homes and rooms. Even the idea of having a product I designed on someone's wall is very nice. Now I have 237 products on my store.
But not everything always went as I planned. Sometimes I worked hard, sometimes I couldn't care at all. There are ups and downs in life. That's why I haven't yet reached the income I wanted and dreamed of. But this process taught me a lot. I learned to be patient, to continue and that small steps are also important.
I'm not working in an active job right now. So I really need additional income. But I'm trying to see it as an opportunity, not an obligation. Because my motivation is very high right now. I have the desire to start again. I want to be more organized, produce more and grow my store.
There are metal wall decors in different styles in my Etsy store. I make minimal designs, written decors and products that can be prepared for special occasions. I can also prepare personalized designs for people who want them. While preparing each product, "Will the person who buys this be happy?" I think. This is very important to me.
The reason I share on this platform is actually to share this journey. Maybe there are people like me who are looking for their own way and want to try something. Maybe it will be an inspiration, maybe I will just get a message of support. Both are very valuable to me.
You can take a look at my store if you want. Your comments, ideas and support are really important to me. Even a small support sometimes raises a person's motivation a lot.

I'm still at the beginning of the road. But I believe that if I work regularly and don't give up, I can get to the point I want. Maybe one day I will only live my life with the income I earn from this business. This is my biggest dream.
