So, I've been working really hard at getting products into stores, and then setting up my
etsy site which has been totally fun, but also totally frustrating at the same time. I'm having to re-learn photoshop- which I took as a class in high school 10 YEARS AGO (OMG- it's reunion time). Anyway, Etsy seems like it would be really really easy because all the programming is done for you, and all the payment stuff is already worked out...however, they fail to tell you that you are going to have to become a master marketing person, photographer, stylist, model, artist, craftsman - er woman, graphic designer, distributor, and accountant. I guess that's what owning a small business is like....anyway I'm ranting- but that's the beauty of blogs, you can't stop me! So there.
I'm in a cabin on the Tennessee River with my wonderful mother right now, trying to learn how to take macro pics (she loves taking photos of ants) of my jewelry, and feeling calm about most things except for etsy. I'm relating to this pendant I just listed (yes, it's a shameless plug- we need money, what can I say?) :
