diving back in

It has been months since I have even been able to think about making anything. I am over it. Getting out all my beads and being creative, is the only way to solve this problem.

Starting 2010 Right

I have been learning so many things about making jewelry in 2009. Reading, beading trial and error, and gifts for many! I am ready to load up my artfire store and spread the word. I am up late stringing and beading away. This is still only the beginning : )

Back to the beads

Too Long No Post

I am still here. Living day to day, trying to bite off more than I can chew!
My application for a local art fair was denied yesterday : ( It was a nice email explaining that more artist applied then they could fit in the show. I was sad at first and then happy that I have more time to get more product ready. I have many projects going at once. I am trying to learn so many new techniques and am still looking for my nitch! It will happen!!!!!!
I have set up my dining room table for success in my beading this evening! Here we go..................

Artfire, Etsy, or Both continued

Both just might be the answer. But wait! Do I have different items on each site or the same on both?????
The more items you have on either site the more action you see. What if, by crazy chance, 2 people buy the same item?
I can't believe I am sitting on 30 new items that have not been posted. Problem being PICTURES!

Uncle Billy! Fly here and help me with photography!

Artfire or Etsy or Both

Google analytics rocks! It seems artfire is getting the most views. I have been in full research mode, trying to decide where to post my new items. Will it be esty or artfire?

Overall website appearance I vote artfire. I feel the colors are more vibrant and the digital art, on all artfire banners, is more modern. My store front grabs my attention faster on artfire.

Networking claims etsy as a winner in my book! I love the ponce, treasury, and who hearts this shop options. I also find it is easier to promote, though you have to be persistent.
