Baby steps

Two posts in two days, I don’t think that has happened since I challenged myself to make a kite a day for kite month (too many years back).

I made slight progress toward marketing my miniature kites over the evening, despite having a hike with the Cubs that took twice as long as it should have when a half dozen kids showed up 5 minutes after everyone else had started walking, and then we had to wait for a parent to return (from goodness knows where) for some of the late comers.

I have thought that selfie-sticks are about the silliest things ever, but it occurred to me that the attachment could let me point my iPod at a miniature in flight. The first test was a little rough (of course), but the concept is promising. I’ll post results after I make some refinements and look for some backgrounds that aren’t at my house. I think this has some great possibility to help put these and some of my other indoor kites out over social media.

Also I tried the modification that I was thinking of for my easel cards, and it works well (will work even better if I make the kites just a little differently). I’m very excited to make up some more cards (and some new kites to fit them properly).

So there are a baby step on packaging, and one on marketing. That’s all for now, but I’m just so excited to be taking any steps forward after the months of stagnation.
