Sale results!

My weekend wore me out but I did really well. We had the Christmas in July sale for 3 days and I sold 12 pieces! I have been at my new location for 2 weeks and I have sold 14 pieces in that time. It is amazing!
This week I am working on getting several deadlines met. I have a local event on August 8th that I need to make new pieces for, I need to work on restocking my local location after selling so much over the weekend, I also need to work on restocking and reopening my Etsy shop and I have to get a lot of supplies ordered before I can even begin to make more pieces!

I also need to figure out how to set up my display a bit better for events and special sales. This past weekend was the first time I have ever had a special sale outdoors. I had to go buy a tent which is fine because it will hopefully get used quite a bit in the future. But, I realized that I don't really have any signage for my tent or table. So, I need to work on getting those things figured out and ordered before my next event on August 8th.

Guess that's it for now, I'd better get back to work! =)

Wow, it has been way too long....

I am soooooo sorry, it has been ages since I have posted in here! I have a pretty good excuse....really!

Business has really picked up for me. I made the decision a while ago to close my Etsy shop and concentrate on getting Custom Orders, Consignments and Wholesale business. All of my time and hard work has paid off!

I now have 2 consignments in CA and 1 in PA. At the consignment in PA I was given the front window to set up my display, very exciting! I have an order I am working on for a Christmas consignment in a Mall store here in PA, a Christmas In July sale this weekend and a community event on August 8th. So, as you can see I have been very busy but it has been a very positive thing for me.

I am now hoping to open my Etsy shop back up by the end of August once my last show is over and I see how much stock I have and need to make in order to stock up the Etsy shop to where I would like it to be. I am also planning on opening a destash shop on Etsy as well, hopefully also by the end of August.

So, stay tuned and I will try to not be gone so long next time. =)

It's been ages....

I haven't been doing a very good job of updating have I? What can I say, things have been busy around here and not just with my jewelry.

Here are a few items that I just listed that round off my Birthstone line of jewelry. I do not have the other six months yet as far as crystal colors go, but I am working on it.

Enjoy!
