Etsy Success Today

In case you missed it, the Etsy Success Newsletter today had some great stuff in it. There's an excellent article on holiday craft shows chock full with tips. After reading it, I think I can make my table for December's First Thursday a lot more rocking. Here's my table from E.A.S.T. -



Also, finally what a lot of us have been waiting for: Coupon Codes! I can't wait to try it out with a code this week. I am listing a ton of new stuff this week as I get organized after E.A.S.T.



Have a great week and a wonderful Thanksgiving!

New Custom Work

Since getting back from my honeymoon, I've been busy getting two custom bridal orders together!

The first was a group of four necklaces--in navy blue, black, and silver--for my dear friends Jamie and Daniel's wedding. The bridesmaids got asymmetrical necklaces with a navy blue vintage-inspired Lucite floral cabochon set in silver with silver Czech glass beads. The groomsmaiden got a black vintage Lucite rose with silver Czech glass beads.

I was so excited to get to see these on the ladies last Saturday. They looked great! 




I also just finished a custom duo for a bride who's getting married in January, as gifts for the friends reading in her ceremony.

One features a vintage Lucite butterfly wing charm and the other features a Tibetan silver butterfly flower. Both feature deep grayish-plum glass pearls.


That's it for now. As always, let me know if you have any custom ideas you want to talk about. I will be out in about in a couple of weeks for the second weekend of E.A.S.T. and First Thursday in December--both with my friend Cindy of Dead Weather letterpress. I will post details here soon!

Happy Fall!
