Spring Teaser

I had one of those fabulous bursts last night! You know how it goes, one idea hits you and then an aftershock of 12 more. Well here you have it, my teaser of at least one of the hopefully many things to come this spring/summer.

Oh another Valentines day behind us and I still have the only 3 heartsy items that I've ever made in my shop. I was thinking about it last night and maybe it's because they're cutsie and not diamond encrusted or chocolate covered? Oh well, I do keep them in my shop, (well not the hat), year round. After all VDay isn't the only time people like hearts is it?

This one is cute but doesn't fit on my big head!

I may just keep this one, it is kind of nifty

I really am surprised this one hasn't sold yet.

The New Alice

one of the biggest hurtles I've been facing with my two shops have been achieving the right "feeling" with my photo's. I think I"ve finally found it with AliceToowilliger! I am very excited to introduce the new Alice:

Hellooooo

I'm feverishly working to make myself one of the Etsy Success Stories. I know I can do it! I have two great shops and I just don't want to be a graphic designer anymore, and I don't want to be penniless either. I found some good strategy advice and have been following it. Google Analytics is my new hero, and I'm patiently waiting for syndication of my shops at Etsy.
I know about a year ago or so I had the five a day project and after about a week I gave up, but this time I'm going to preserver! Hopefully soon I"ll be blogging tips about what worked for me, or someone will want to interview me as a fine example of a success story.
