Nanna's Goodies

General information

Nanna’s Goodies started from a love of crafting that my grandmother instilled in me 50 years ago. I started out making items for the home and toys for my seven children (now all grown), then graduated to doing craft bazaars. I tried my hand at selling my items in a brick-and-mortar store but the economy put a halt to that, so I had to be content with bazaars again. Then the cost of the bazaar space rental got bigger and the profits got smaller (again, thanks to the economy), so I went back to making things for home and family and a few gifts for friends. That’s when it hit me – everyone seems to be selling on one of those auction sites and making money, so I tried that. I found out that people who go on auction sites are like those who go to garage sales – they want to buy something new for a “used” price. By this time, my son Jeremy had become a computer whiz and was building websites and putting together computers as well as trouble-shooting programming and such, so I said “Please build me a website!” It took a few years for us to actually get together a plan, but when we did, I got excited and Nanna’s Goodies was born!
