Giving up on Etsy

I must admit I was pretty excited about Etsy. I really liked the ease of use and the idea of a website committed to handcrafted wares. But, I did not sell anything. Bummer. At least, I tried it.
I am also going to appeal to anyone out there who has an idea, any ideas as to where my work might sell. I am open, I have a sample CD to send out to any and all potential buyers. I am ready to be in business. I mean it! I have one more place for you all to check out my work.

new work





I have made some new pieces and a great couple by the names of Dave and Isabel Day stayed on our dock for the seafood festival. They commissioned a necklace and purchased a few items to pass on to family. They were so great and really inspired me to work on being creative and use what time I had to be productive. I thank them for that as well as supporting my creative habit! Check out photos of the new work!

Where have I been?

I guess I have been avoiding posting as I was waiting for something to happen then too many things happened at once and now it is nearly a year later and I have so much to share! My mom is in Africa serving with her husband in the peace corps. I spent the summer in Atlanta took some really cool classes with a metalsmith and was inspired to get all the tools I needed to work with metal more. I am back in Florida and have been asked to have my work be sold in a gift shop on Marco, I still have my work in JT's on Chokoloskee and I am going to show my work on Islamorada, Fl the 19, 20 and 21 at the Gigantic Nautical Flea Market. Ella Vickers bags will also be at the Flea Market. Check out both of these websites to find out more. Bags: www.ellavickers.com
