This is the first year that we paid quarterly taxes. I checked last year to see if we needed to and, surprise, surprise, it was a bit confusing and we were supposed to pay quarterly taxes last year. So, unfortunately we got a penalty this year. Bummer.
At any rate, we have paid our 2013 yearly taxes and our 2014 first quarter taxes. I feel like a "real" business now. I've been working at keeping good records. I have spreadsheets that I enter information into and we use an online bookkeeping service for our Etsy business. That helps a lot and saves so much time.
Business has been good the last few weeks. Thankfully, since we needed the money for our taxes.
I do really need to work on our vintage art picture frames now. Our inventory is down. That is on my schedule for next week. I've been trying to work on bracelets about three - four days a week and then one or two days on either the frames, Scrabble pendants or our vintage shop. It definitely keeps me busy.
We've listed a few new bracelets. That's always exciting. We created a Sea Turtle bracelet, a couple of Mother's Day bracelets, and a Wizard of Oz bracelet.
Here is the new Mother's Day bracelet...

It was so much fun because we found oodles of Victorian heart postcards and art to use!
