Well I haven't posted in awhile. Been pretty burned out lately and taking a break from jewelry. But now 2009 is here and I am starting to feel the creative juices flowin' again.....yea baby!!!! Happy 2009 to everyone and hopefully this will be a WAY better year for the whole world - and maybe bring peace and happiness to all. I am looking forward to a brand new president and think this is a good change for us all here in the USA. Obama you rock!!!!!!

visited your website and your wire work is interesting... haven't gotten to that quite yet. i'm still a beginner in my book. [although i made nearly 2 dozen pieces for Christmas presents! lol] some have asked me if i sell mine, and so far i do not. how did you make the leap into selling your work? thanks for any advice!
ReplyDeleteHi Tracie, thanks for visiting my blog. I made the leap after selling numerous items to co-workers and friends, then decided to do a Christmas bazaar. People suggested I get a website so I designed one, made up business cards and jumped in with both feet. There are easier and quicker ways then this but I was not aware of them at the time. You could start by listing some items on Etsy. It is inexpensive and a great way to get your stuff out there. Join some of the forums on Etsy or other jewelry sites also. Make sure you take really good pictures - your pictures sell your stuff. I am still working on the quality of my pics.
ReplyDeleteSo go for it and keep me posted. Send me some pics of your jewelry - would love to see them.
