New Jewelry Added to Vanpinni Designs

I recently stopped just looking at my small box of jewelry supplies, accumulated from the past 10 years or so. Nope, now I was going to open that baby up and see what I can put together. Etsy and Instagram are exposing me to such creative makers out there, that it's definitely rubbing off. There just isn't enough free hours in the day to create as much as I would like to. If you have a second, please take a look and let me know what you think. Have a great day!

* update as of March 30, 2017: This blue iris beaded 2 tier necklace sold on Etsy, for $25. It's my first jewelry piece to sell. I'm very excited to try some more designs, and to continue learning the ins and outs of this whole selling online thing.

How did it get to be 2017 already?

After a few years of not contributing to this blog, (I even forgot I had it!) I'm reconnected to it now via my Zazzle website, which has been ignored for far too long. Hopefully this can be the start to shaping something along with my starting an Etsy.com store again. www.etsy.com/shop/vanpinnidesigns

When You're Not Paying Attention, Things Happen

Imagine that, over 3 months of time has passed since I last thanked a Zazzle customer of mine, for purchasing one of my products. Within those 3 months, I can't remember getting an email alert saying that I've made 4 sales. And it's doubly surprising, to see that one or 2 sales are of products, I thought may never get sold.

I really should put more time and effort into Zazzle. Even though we're into March finally, this year's resolution will be to work on designing more products to sell in my store. Time flies by way too quickly.

In my defense, the last 2 years have been very busy, raising my now, 3 year old, and my 8 year old daughters. But now it's a new year, 2014. Let's get back to into it!

Holiday Card, Awarded "Today's Best" by Zazzle 11/19/11

Yesterday, I was thrilled to open up email and find a congratulations note, from a fellow Zazzler, on my TBA. It's always nice to know someone's seen and admired work you've created. This past weekend, I was scrambling to add a couple of new Holiday designs to my store. Could use a few more for sure, but this latest batch is off to a good start. Now for some sales!

This Week's Top 5 Zazzle Stores

As always, finding different products on Zazzle, I find attractive, encourages me to get busy with my own designs! Sorry for the long delay in posting Top 5 list, but Zazzle's previous navigation system was making it take longer than it should have. Kudos to Zazzle for making the nav bar easier.
