You know how I show that my family is important to me?

By hanging photos of my kids and my parents and such around my house instead of vinyl sticky letters that will probably end up doing more damage to my drywall and plaster than a simple nail hole will.

Hehe, I said “nail” and “hole”… hehehehe!

Just FYI, I own a vinyl cutter (thankfully I use it for far less trite output) and I promise you a 13 year old could do this. It doesn’t strike me as what most 13 year olds would want to make, but technically they’d be capable.

I might just have to make myself the one #10 suggests though…that’d look so sweet on my wall

Those cricut machines cost like 500 bucks, so I can totally see mom putting her kids to work selling vinyl wall crap. And if it’s a cricut, you can’t input your own art – you have to use the stencil packs they sell (at a pretty steep price as well). So the “handmade” part is the kid typing in the text, selecting the size and putting the paper in.
Kinda like pouring boiling water on ramen noodles is “home cooking”

As far as the fake profile issue, I don’t doubt some kid could operate the machine or have an etsy business, that’s not the issue. The profile just sounds phony. I can’t put my finger on it but the tone sounds more like “adult trying to come across as a kid to elicit purchases and sympathy when it comes to dealing with customer service, etc.” (it happens, as recently posted in the calling out etsy blog) rather than “actual 13 year old.”

Hi, I’m 13 years old beginning business person and with the help from my parents I was able to start my own business. I love horses and thats why I named my shop “aluckyhorseshoe”. I own a 21 year old Morgan mare. I also own 2 dogs, 2 cats, 2 birds and a tank full of fish. My parents have been in business since before I was born and think that now is a good time to start my own business. etc etc
