Blogging

I've been very productive this weekend. I made some new journals and cards and took a bunch of photos. I have lots of new items to post, but because the photos won't upload on my slow modem, it might take a while to get them listed (which I guess is good because that ways items will be added gradually, but there's some Halloween and election stuff I want to get up soon).

I did get this Purple Donut Altered Book listed though. It has an imperfection and I wasn't sure if I should sell it, but I decided to make it a sale item. I also listed and got one photo to work for this feel better card:



I'm addicted to two new sites - listography and twitter. I use both to update on my personal life and stuff on etsy. I also set up a Project Wonderful account and you can see my ads on sites such as Handmade Showcase and Indiepublic. I'm thinking of maybe changing or adding an ad that includes a photo of some of my journals instead of my logo, what do you think? Hopefully, that will help bring more viewers to my shop (and hopefully more sales!)

Since I don't have a lot of new things to post, I thought I'd share a few of the blogs I've been getting in lately on my blog list. Feel free to recommend me any new ones, about etsy or anything else. :)

Etsy Edibles Art Team - This actually for Etsy's Edible Arts Team, which I'm not a part of (since you have to sell food to be a member), but I think it's fun to look at their blog. I love reading about and seeing photos of desserts. ;)

Eye Pop Art - This blog is for the shop of someone who paints and decorates old vinyl records. I love her artwork. It's kind of expensive for me to buy, but it's really fun and eye catching.

Afiori - I found this blog on a journaling community on livejournal. She has a lot of really nice journaling pages and crafts. I just added her blog to my blog list

Phizzychick - Another person who makes mixed media artwork. I love her journal pages, they're fun to look at and very inspiring to me. I found her blog on craftster.

I'd also thought I'd share this photo I took of a tree outside my window. The leaves are so pretty.

Gorgeous tree! I would think that it would be a great idea to use your journals as our photo instead of your logo...give it a shot and see :-)

Very pretty card and love your tree. We have one similar in our back yard. It is the prettiest tree every fall.

Wow, I love that card! Isn't fall lovely. It's pretty hard to take a bad picture of a colorful autumn tree, no?

Wow, I love that tree pic!
