Hello everyone! I know it's been so very long since I've posted on the blog, but things got ever so hectic for a long, long while.
Just a few minor updates rather quickly and then on to what's on my mind.
Currently I am leaving the Etsy Store unstocked, just because I've been selling so well at the Ocean View Swap Meet that right at this moment it would be difficult for me to keep stock on hand for both the online store AND weekly trips to the Meet.....
Now.. for what's on my mind.... I've been contemplating metal lately. I've always loved wire work and would like to move more into it. I love working with all the "ooh SHINY" that is beads and crystals, but some days I like to simplify it all and just do metal work. Now, because I've been contemplating metal, it needs to be asked... what kind of metal would be the most popular? When I ask myself, the answer is INSTANT.. "Silver!"
Yeah, well not everyone is me. Which I quickly discovered when asking some random people what type of metal they prefer giving them three options... Silver, Copper or Gold. (with the price of gold now days you know I didn't even want to offer gold as an option.)
I was actually shocked that most people responded with "Copper" which made me happy because copper is something that I can afford to play with on a budget. Yes... even Silver is god awful expensive now days.
So with this in mind I've been creating more wire jewelry with copper and boy has everyone been buying it up!!!! Sorry no photos because usually as soon as I make a copper piece, it sells... I MUST start keeping my camera on me at all times.
My Metal "Style" is mainly Silver because Silver looks good against my skin tone, but then I also connect to it in a metaphysical sense. Silver is said to be the metal associated with the Moon Goddess. It's a protective metal and repels and destroys evil spirits. Silver is also known as an emotional balancer, helps to relieve stress and enhances mental functions.
all right y'all.. I have to create away in order to have stock available on Saturday... I was shocked when at the end of last Saturday, I only had four pairs of earrings left to take home!
