First sale and attempt at a new crafting project

My punk princess cowl
So I came up with this great idea today. To do advertisements for my site! So we went to Micheals and bought transfer paper, and t-shirts and tote bags. We got home, and got to work, and after about 3 hours, (to set everything up, make the design, and get the kids settled) we were ready to begin. We followed the directions and I can tell you, DON'T do it. Lol, I dont know what went wrong, but yeah. I tried making a design with what I call "puff paint", which is Tulip fabric paint. I can't do straight lines, so it honestly didnt work. I mean it worked, it just didnt look all that great. So what lesson is to be learned here? Well I guess I need to stick to crocheting! :)  I have been having trouble sleeping lately, and I have been coming up with ideas for projects. Of course, I didnt have anywhere to put these ideas down at, so I bought a sketch pad at the store, along with some colored pencils.I dont know what I will come up with, but hopefully its cool. I have been thinking of food objects lately, and my next project will be a "watermelon" inspired cowl. I did make my first sale today on ETSY, so I am excited! The picture is of the item that was purchased today. MY FIRST SALE!

Stay tuned and happy crocheting!     :)
