Enjoying Life*

Well, I'm still working on my two little online shops, and hope that since I decided to 
separate my products so that it would be easier for visitors and/or buyers, to see all that is available, more clear. 

Less is more. (I heard that somewhere:)

You see, I love to make so many different things, and since a lot of my ideas come from the material that I look at, most times I don't even know what I'm going to make until I'm actually sitting down ready to create. :)

I LOVE it.

I am really hoping that one day, I can actually sit at home in my little workshop and do this, and this only as my way of survival.  That would be awesome.

I really enjoy changing up my shop banners too, because I think the same banner all the time might get boring.

So, just to put the shops out there for anyone who might like to check them out.

The one on Artfire will have the  Jewelry  that I  make  or design,  along with  Handmade  Accessories  of all kinds.

The one on Zibbet will have Pillow Coverssmall bags, market/shopping bagschange pursesbusiness card  holders, and any other goodie that comes to mind when I am in my creating zone. :)

I would love to see what anyone else is making, or designing, so please be daring and be the first to join my Blog so that I can also join yours and keep an eye for something I might want to buy.

Have a Great weekend!

UPDATE *

Hi

I've decided to focus on my two shops and put my Affiliate Marketing on a back burner for just a bit, so that I can get traffic to my Handmade items, and get my shops better organized.

I really enjoy making things, one of which is sewing, and the other is creating jewelry.

When I'm sewing, I love to re-invent, re-cycle because seeing a new creation born from a skirt, coat, fabric finds, etc., is so exciting.

I don't go shopping with an idea in mind.  I look for special looking fabric, different, even if it already has a life of it's own.  That's when I bring it home and every time I look at it, I wait until the vision is there. 

I get so excited once I know what I'm going to make and start in a way as if I have a drawing in front of me. The vision is so clear in my mind.  I do make a couple little changes near completion until I feel iI looks exactly as I pictured in my mind.

The proudest moment is when someone actually purchases one of my designs.

So, for now, my sewing/felting, fabric creations of any kind, will be listed  HERE*  and my jewelry designs will be  here*

I will be putting both shops on one site, and I'm working on that now.

Sorry I have to cut it short, but my computer is starting to act up, and I don't want it to freeze before this posting is saved.

Keep Your creative juices flowing.

Drop a line, I'd Love to hear from You.

Sew What Have You Been Up To?

I have been working so much out in the big world, that I haven't had much time at all to
do any work at home.


I really miss sitting down and getting into my designing. You know, letting your imagination
run free and seeing what actually turns out from it all. :)


My awesome friend Rosie (that's my dog) had a birthday on April 26 and turned 14, so she
does need to be taken outside more frequently, and she is slowing down with having arthritis,
which I can definitely relate to. :)


I decided to stick to sewing, and have stopped creating jewelry for now because I just don't
have time or the money to pursue everything I want to right now.


I have another site on Visual Imaginaries where I have posted just my hand sewing items and
machine sewing.  I do hope you get a chance to check it out. There's a couple of cool Pillows.


I would love to hear from You and See what You have been doing.


Have a Great Weekend, and  Happy Mother's Day  to ALL  MoM's.

MOTHERS DAY

I haven't had a chance to do an updated post because of my computer being near Death!


I just don't have enough money right now to buy a new one.


I've made a couple of pretty pillows that would be awesome gifts for a MoM on her Special Day!


If you get a chance, check them out because I have to go....Only because this crappy computer keeps freezing and then won't move until I turn it off and start all over again.


Have a Great Week.

Cooking Mama ?

Hello Artisans,

I've been busy trying to do many things at the same time. :)


I'm sure you know what that feels like.


I can't believe I actually had time to look at this "Peta" game. You might want to think twice about playing because there is a chance it will turn you off of things you like to eat.

I did find it very interesting though, because they post "Facts" that I'm sure most people are just not aware of.  yuck!


Check it out if you get a chance, and I'll be back soon.

Scroll to the bottom and click on the ad that says;  "Cooking Mama".


Have a Great week.

POPPING UP ALL OVER.

Hey,
How's your weekend going? Hope all is well with your shop if you have one on the go, and 
I just wanted to drop a line to let you know that there is another Great place for Handmade* Artisans.


It's pretty much the same rules that apply to "Artfire" and "Etsy".


You can get a Free account*, or upgrade to a monthly fee for added customization.


Of course I have added a shop here at Zibbet~ because I figure, the more the better. :)
Especially since there is no cost, I'm sure it won't hurt sales.


Well, I've got to get back to my other interest in trying to become a top Affiliate Marketer,
and if by any chance you are also interested in earning an income online, please
check out my other Blog* where I hope my posts can help you save time and* money.


Enjoy the rest of your weekend.


Always* here to help,

What's Next On The List?

Let's see, there's St. Patrick's Day, Easter, and Spring. So much to do, so little time.

I've started making a couple of things for Easter, then it came to mind that maybe I should make a thing or two for St. Patrick's Day. 


I know the Irish take it seriously when it comes to celebrating St. Patrick's, so maybe making something that they can pin to their hat would be a good idea.


I've added a new banner to my >>Shop and had fun while doing it.


I figured with Spring slowly getting ready for it's arrival, now would be a good time to make more flowers. I love flowers!


How's everything going with You?  What have You made lately?, and how are Your sales going?


Do enjoy "Family Day" and even if you stay home to relax, maybe you can catch some of the Olympics and watch Canada win more "GOLD".


*Change of subject -- I've been working on designing a website to further follow my dream of working Full Time from home. I'm doing Affiliate Marketing, something that might interest you if you're looking to create another stream of income. 

"Never put your eggs in one basket" so the saying goes.


Talk soon.
