So hopefully you noticed that I haven't been posting a lot...or that I didn't even send out a newsletter!!! GASP!!! I know...craziness! Things around got a little crazy with work and my parents coming into town. I had a small list of projects I wanted their help with and within hours of them being here, the list doubled! I am so grateful to have such supportive and helpful parents. I wished they could have stayed longer, but they had to go back home. Now the hubby and I are getting back into a routine. lol
In preparation for a busy Fall craft show schedule, I will be flooding the store with lots of new goodies!! So keep an eye for new additions! I will show off some of my new additions tonight. But I have to tell you one annoyance that I have...bubble necklaces...I love the look of them, but hate how they are sold online... I scoured suppliers looking for the right supplies to make such a necklace for my sister. I eventually found the right supplies and was able to make them. But the reason why I have an annoyance with these necklaces is because you can find them all over Etsy, but 99% of the time, the ones you find are from China and are not even handmade. These necklaces exploded in popularity. So now that I am making them, but not with the variety as many of the sellers from China, I am having to compete with faux-handmade shops. I guess I just get annoyed at seeing the shops on Etsy that sell from jewelry from China because, to me, they seem fake. I don't feel like the owner of the shop actually sat at a desk, designed the piece, and constructed it.
Well I'm done venting about Chinese Etsy shops...hope I didn't offend anyone!
