Bonjour! Do not fret. Write and photo that which brings your true heart alives. And all the rest follows in place. Your blog is delightful keep going!

I agree with Tongue in Cheek. No reason to fret. If you leave comments, get a Flickr account and put links (sidebar and in the body of text) on your site, the people who resonate with you will come. Like me for example--I enjoyed your comment on my site and thought I'd like to read more of your writing.

Jump on in, the water is fine.

so sweet, the both of you...thanks!

I love your frank comments about starting a blog. I too, ummed and aghed for ages, wondered if I had enough to offer or say and if I did was anyone going to be interested in reading it. Checked my blog all the time and flickr, was grateful when people made me their contact. I have calmed down a bit now and I just enjoy being connected to all those people out there. I love seeing what people make - it inspires me to make things myself and most of all I feel like I'm part of this amazing community. I think we lead quite lonely lives these days and I for one feel there's something missing - and that's community. Must stop rambling - I love your blog and the things you make.

I completely understand how you feel!! I felt the same way. I even started doing giveaways and only had 1 or 2 people, if any, sign up for them. I thought, this is ridiculus, I felt like I was trying to buy friends. Once I started doing more swaps and leaving tons of comments I seemed to become more "accepted" into the group. It does seem to take awhile but don't give up!! I hope you have a wonderful day!

HI, I found you through a post, through another post, through another....that's how it works most of the time. I began blogging so my far away relatives could keep up with my life and blog just for me. I love the comments but try to fight the urge to post what I think others will like, Like I said, my blog is for me. I was dumbfounded the first time someone left a comment. How did they find me? Even more dumbfoudned to see my little blog on someones favorites list. Yes, I checked my etsy every hour, sometimes every ten minutes and was overjoyed the first time something sold. Being accepted? You will find many people who will accept you just becasue you have thigns in common. The best way th get comments is to comment on others. But relax, don't sweat it. You wont find yourself until your blog is about you, not about pleasing others:>) Good luck!
