I Love...

So yesterday evening, I recieved a fabulous package in the mail...
Two new necklaces & some funky colored safety pins from the wonderful Jules13art!
Ah, I love my new necklaces!
I'll have to post a picture of myself wearing them later!
Anywho...I've started on the bottle cap jewelry, I just haven't posted anything...yet!
It's all coming very soon & I'm sorry for the delay of new items, I'm just a busy lady.
I really don't have much in the way of news, but the boyfriend stepped on my box of seed beads yesterday and now they're everywhere.
Ohhh that'll be fun :]
I'll be back to post more later!

Bummed.

So today, I am definitely a little more than bummed out.
I had made a sale to this girl I knew when I was a kid & waited at least three weeks for her to send payment, so I sent her a message asking if she still wanted her order.
Apparently she wanted to cancel, but she never said anything to me before about it.
I'm sorry, but I find that a little more than slightly rude.
Three weeks?!
That's pretty long if you're trying to buy something from someone.
Ugh...that really sucks.
Anyways...I got paid today, so I'll be off to the craft stores to buy some supplies, but right now I'm wondering if its even worth it.
A lot of people say that they like my shop & I have a decent amount of hearts, but no one ever buys from me.
I sort of feel rejected.
Maybe its just one of those days...?
I really hope so because I'm feeling a little more than slightly discouraged.
Anyways, have a good day, everyone, I'll be back to post again later :)

Jewelry Parties?

I've heard of things such as candle parties, but I've never heard of a jewelry party.
There was this great thread in Etsy going today about them that had a lot of really great tips and ideas, so I just thought I'd share with everyone, so click below to read on:
Also, I've figured out what I'll be expanding to, but that's a surprise.
I'll be working on it this weekend after I get paid :)
I'm so excited.
Also, during my lunchbreak I redid a few of my pictures & I'll post those tonight.
Other than that not much going on.
I'll check back later :)

Just Observing.

So there's this big thread going on Etsy (started by me, oddly enough) about Handmade Fuzion.
I just wanted to say that I was denied to see how many other artisans out there had been denied and it sounds like it's getting into something of a debate.
Some are saying that it's discrimination that all of us fabulous crafters have been denied and then some are saying that we've been denied for saying bad things about the site because the creators do read our forums.
I just wanted to say that I was denied and that I dont like the way the site is laid out.
I'm reading what people are saying, but I'm staying out of the argumentative part of everything.
It's interesting to read everyone's opinions of the site.
Me, personally?
Not much of a fan, but like in forums, we all have our own opinions about things.
To read the thread, click here:
updated at: 10:04am.
I'm still reading along with what everyone has to say and apparently people don't read very often.
Makes me want to go crosseyed.
If you're going to post something on the thread, be sure to read some of what the thread is about...maybe go to the last page or the second to last page to see what people are saying.
Jeez.
Oh well, that's just me.

Dun Dun Dun...

So I went & checked my email not so long ago to see that I had recieved an email from a new up & coming site called Handmade Fuzion.
First of all, please make a note that I HATE the spelling here of the word "fuzion."
I feel like I have to pronounce the "z."
Anyways...I recieved an email saying something to the effect that they're sorry that they could not accept my application at this time, decisions are not based soley on pictures, sorry about the impersonal email, blah, blah, blah.
Whaaatever.
Jerks.
It seems like they've denied a lot of applicants for no apparent reason as they were all really awesome crafters.
I suppose they can't see greatness, even when it's punching them in the neck.
*sigh*
Anyways...I think I'm going to redo my pictures tomorrow as I've just been critiqued on them again.
I might as well, I've got nothing else to do.
I'll just take everything to work with me & do them on my lunch :]
That's about it for now.
Have a good evening, everyone :]

The Weekend

I didn't get much done this weekend like I should have.
I guess I was just too much on the go or what have you.
I didn't spend much time on the internet or at home.
BUT...I've promised that I will have new things up this week, and I'll keep my promise, there will definitely be some new things up this week.
I need to go supply/organizer shopping, though.
Ugh...so much to do...
