We are four weeks into our Get To Know Us series! Have you been following along? So far I’ve shared the story of Nothing Past Nine and its name, as well as introduced myself and my sister – the two contributors to the shop. Now that you know us, it’s about time I shared a little about the business itself, huh?

Nothing Past Nine is an Etsy-based online retail shop that specializes in handmade cloth and paper goods. Our primary products are scarves, both chunky knit and cotton fashion, and paper goods include greeting cards and gift tags. The biggest joy of working through Etsy though, is the ability to reach people who want a custom item and trust you to create their vision. These projects are both more challenging and rewarding, pushing us beyond our own imaginations.

The Etsy site provides a fantastic avenue for sales, and a small glimpse of what we do behind the scenes. To build this company, expand our reach, and allow us to serve our customers in different ways, we started this blog. As the entrepreneur behind Nothing Past Nine, I have been blessed to have numerous sources of support and guidance regarding small business ownership. This blog is an avenue to build relationships and give back to the community that has been such a big help to me. Even if it’s just to put a smile on someone’s face or add a project to his or her to do list!

Finally, another way we try to connect with others is through social media. We have an active presence on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Pinterest, and we hope you’ll follow us for pretty items, fun project ideas, small business tips, great bad jokes, motivation, and more!
