A DAUGHTER was left upset when her craft loving mum spent a month making Christmas decorations to sell at a local event – only for nobody to buy any of them.
But, after going viral on social media, her daughter opened an online shop stocked full of the festive ornaments, and they sold out in minutes, making her big money in the process.

TikTok user Breana Guadarrama, whose profile is @breana_guadarrama, posted a video to her 13,900 followers explaining how she was sad for her mum.
The clip began with a picture of Breana along with the words: “POV your mom spent over a month making Christmas decorations for an event at a booth she rented out and nobody bought anything.”
The footage then showed her mum surrounded by homemade Christmas decorations – from wreaths to snowmen statues.
Breana’s followers were also gutted for her mum as it became clear how much effort she had put in to make her impressive festive treats.
So much so that they suggested that Breana open an online store to sell the unsold products.
One wrote: “Can I buy something” alongside a heart emoji and a crying one.
Another said: “Tell her to sell online and start an Instagram account. She’s precious.”
After reading everyone’s comments, Breana did exactly that, as she announced the news and thanked everyone for their “kind words and support.”
Breana revealed: “UPDATE. I made her an online shop. Shopify link is in my bio, thank you everyone so much.”
She went on to say: “I made this page for my mom. These are all handmade by her.
“She spent over a month making these from scratch for an event where she rented a booth.
“Unfortunately not 1 sold. Thank you everyone for the support.”
Minutes later, social media users who had followed Breana’s mum’s stories flocked to the site to show their support.
Items for sale included $10 candy cane wreaths, a $20 customised Christmas tree, and a $35 Incredibles ornament.
And within days, every single item in the catalogue had completely sold out, which means she made at least $516, which amounts to a whopping £423.
Breana revealed her mum even had to restock some of the products due to popular demand.
But it wasn’t just the mother and daughter duo who were over the moon with her change in fortune.
Social media users were also thrilled that there was a happy ending to the story and that she made her money back – and then some.
One wrote: “I went to buy and everything is gone! So happy for your mom.”
A second said: “Went to buy and saw it was sold out! So amazing!! Let me know if she does more.”
While a third commented: “Just bought two – one for me and one for my momma.”
One even touchingly added: “Everything is sold out but how much was the booth rental? I’d like to reimburse her for that.”
