WOOHOO! So I woke up this a.m. to a convo on Etsy...turns out one of my little rings has been featured on a blog!!! Yessss! Makes me kick myself for not taking a better picture of it, because man...I'm learning a lot about taking great pics...but I digress. It was my black marbled ring, which I have had now for quite some time on Etsy...frankly, it hasn't garnered a lot of attention, but maybe the exposure on this blog will do it for me :) It's a great fashion/artsy type read, you can check it out (and my ring!) here:http://theeamerikandream.onsugar.com/Just scroll down and you'll see the pic!
That is the question I am pondering this afternoon. What would happen if my shop consisted of ONLY earrings??? I love earrings. I love them for me, I love them for others, I love making them. That's primarily what is in my shop right now, aside from my soap. So I have to wonder...would the shop thrive on earrings alone? Not that it is booming right now, mind you...but hypothetically...I have lots of buttons waiting to be made into earrings and/or rings, and I can't wait to see how they turn out...but the more of those I make, the more they overtake my shop...is that bad? I mean, I AM beadsbuttons(AND)bubbles lol...I've just been concentrating on bubbles in the past more so than beads & buttons...and since bubbles aren't paying the ol' Etsy bill, maybe beads & buttons will? We shall see.I also need a new outlet for finding buttons. I don't usually get into the vintage stuff too much, because I like being able to keep my things affordable and fun; the vintage can get really pricey...but if any of you dear readers know of a nice Etsian or site with reasonable, fun buttons...By all means, let me know :) I'll tell them you sent me, ha!
