And yet, I feel so unproductive. Maybe it has to do with the fact that I actually RAN OUT OF HEADPINS yesterday. How does that happen? I'm not entirely sure but it means that I need to be buying much more than I need at any one time. Luckily, one of my favorite suppliers is offering FREE shipping so it gives me more incentive to buy. Other than that, I've managed to feed my jewelry fix by using my next favorite finding, 24 gauge wire. Yippee! I wanted to expand on the whole "drops" concept and this is what I came up with:
I wanted a clever name for my earrings so I've decided to call them "Girly Girly Gumdrops." I thought the name would be appropo since they're such a "girly" color combination. I've been trying to become a little more emboldened with my color choices -- hence, my "Spring Fling" earrings:
I've also been tempted to try to get a booth at the Chili Cookoff coming up in April, but while the actual cost of renting a booth ($45.00 for a 10x10 space) is fairly inexpensive, I'd need a canopy, tables, displays etc. That would be a little too much up front investment for me -- especially if I don't sell anything! But I'm perfectly happy on Etsy since I can juggle Etsy and school and two kids a little bit better than worrying about a craft booth! Maybe when I'm selling more and can afford to invest in that kind of capital...
