Can't seem to keep up


Do you ever have those days where your mind is going much faster than you can possible go? Kind of like you are in a whirlwind? That's how it has been for the last week for me. In my mind I keep planning all these wonderful things that I can make or do and then realize I don't have the time or the materials to bring them to fruition. It is really annoying. I have tons of supplies at my house, but I sometimes find myself getting bored with the same things. I am looking into expanding my accessories line even more. I want to include more items for teens and adults in my store. What types of things would you, my readers, want to see? I have been making adult necklaces, but all the ones I have made are already sold, so I don't bother taking pictures to list them because often times I don't have the beads to duplicate them with. I try to make as many OOAK items as I can, because I know that we all enjoy being unique.


Send me some comments! What is something you would just love to buy for yourself?!!!

Learning how to market myself

I am trying to learn how to market my etsy shop better. I want to drive more traffic there. I would like to know what it is that people want to see. What types of things do they want to buy? I often times wonder if I am the only one who likes the things I make, besides my kids of course. I am trying to branch out to include more womens accessories in my line also. I have made some online contacts that have given me ideas on what to do for womens items and I am currently working on those designs.

Yesterday I took the plunge and went into a new shop that has opened up. I left my card for the owner so that she could see my designs and possibly start carrying my items in her store. I am praying that I will hear back from her.
