Happy Holidays? As a Shop and Gallery owner I know well that you need to start preparing early for the Christmas Holiday. I myself started my personal shopping back in July and only have a couple of my family members to buy for. Being the only one designing and creating the products I offer puts the pressure on to make at least 5 pieces per day so that when the holiday crunch hits, you are well stocked and you have enough product and assortment to offer your customers.
My problem is, is that I never stop thinking. I have too many ideas and I want to do them all. I do believe though that if you choose to do one thing, and do it well, that you will do a better job of it. I just have never been able to do one thing.
It's like the way I clean my house. I get distracted. I will start cleaning one room and if I go to another room to put something away, and I see something that needs to be picked up, well I'll pick it up. Then I start cleaning that room.
Well while I have been waiting for my "Vintage" items to arrive I couldn't just work on my "Old Jewelry Stuff" so I worked on my "New Multi Use" jewelry "Things". They are so colorful and fun looking. I put a cell phone loop, along with a split ring, and a lobster claw clasp on each one so my customers have several options on how they choose to use these new "Things". Just a few ideas I had were on cell phones, key chains, dog collars, as a purse decoration or maybe even clip it on a belt loop.
I don't know how many I am going to make. So far I have only made a few. They are all different. Lots of bright floral and glass beads, silver and pewter chunky charms. The floral beads are multi colored and retro 60's and 70's glass. Then there are all kinds of little silver and pewter dangley charms.
So what I will be offering is my "Custom Designed and Handmade Jewelry Collections", my "Vintage Mexican and Sterling Silver Jewelry" and then my fun little handmade "Thing Collection".
Anyway that's what I have decided to offer so far. I do have something waiting in the wings that I am working on and it's a big surprise. But I think I am going to have to set up a separate web site from the jewelry site for it.
Well that's all for now. See you on Facebook or my Etsy website.
Bye Bye
Kimberly
