Anyways as I mentioned last time I have finally got round to taking pictures of my newer items for my shop, a more sugary sweet lolita style... yes I am one exstreme to the other ^^
Things I have improved on is better descriptions and attempts at better more professional photos. I swear I must spend more time doing the photos then actually making the items lol.
I have pink, blue and lilac... if I get interest will definately make more :) Maybe Yellow and Green?!
I'm definitely loving your newest stuff! I swear that once I have some money (and not bills and stupid crap like this deal with my tooth), I'm going to buy something from you. I looove the sweet stuff you've done. It's just so darling.
ReplyDeleteIn your last post (which I am the suck for not reading until now), you mentioned having ideas but lacking the materials. For me, I like to draw stuff out or write out a diagram or something and make sure that I remember what I was wanting to do. You could log it in a journal and carry it around when you go to crafting supply stores. That way, when you're out you can see what you need.
Also, I don't know if you look at Ebay often, but they have an awesome section with jewelry-making supplies. You can get beads (all kinds of varieties), hooks and clasps, chains, and everything else. Some people do really good prices, too.
I'm not sure if you're familiar with it, my the (http://egl.livejournal.com) EGL comm on LiveJournal is a great place to promote, if you're looking to go more of the sweet route. There's (http://egl.livejournal.com/17671355.html)this post where everyone was posting their Etsy accounts. You can also ask for advice and where to buy certain things. You have to be a member to post/comment, but you can join with OpenID using Facebook and other websites.
Anyway, good luck with everything! I'm jacked up on painkillers so if any writing is crazy and not understandable, my apologizes. I have an abscessed tooth and...it hurts a lot. T_T
Aww thanks! I hope your toothache improves. I have been on painkillers so long now not the greatest of things but really need them. Cut down a lot but can't manage without them yet *ouch*
ReplyDeleteYeah eBay is sometimes good as stuff tends to be cheaper. I think I spend more money buying stuff to make thing then I actually do making a profit lol.
Yeah I am on LJ and part of EGL so I have commented on the post you pointed out. I don't post much on EGL I find sometimes they can get a bit catty :S but I tend to watch the sales comm hehe.
