Direct selling

March 28th, 2008 -- Posted in Crafts, Hobbies | 1 Comment »

I’ve been doing a lot of jewelry making these past couple of weeks.  Not a lot of selling mind you, just a lot of making.  So I’ve come to a couple of decisions.  I’m going to try to sell my crafts directly to interested parties.  I am going to take down my crafting website and I am also going to take down my etsy account when it finally expires.  I have found that these two methods don’t benefit me in the least when trying to sell my crafts.

So within the next few days I will be making a few changes to all my blogs as far as the way that I list my jewelry that is for sale.  But before I will be able to find the time to do all this re-arranging, I thought I would give you all a peek at some of the items that I do have for sale.

The necklaces are all $12.00 and the bracelets are all $7.00.  The shipping is included in these prices for all of Canada and the US.  If you don’t live in either of these countries and would like to make a purchase, just let me know and I’m sure we can work something out.  If you would like to make a purchase you can contact me directly at kdarrell21(at)hotmail(dot)com.  I look forward to hearing from you.  And… I hope you all enjoy the pictures.

The Scrapbooking fairy arrived

March 21st, 2008 -- Posted in Crafts, Friends, Hobbies | 1 Comment »

One of my friends sent me an e-mail the other day about a lady who was getting rid of some of her scrapbooking supplies and she wanted to know if I would be interested in getting them from her for free.  Of course I said yes.  So she gave me her phone number and e-mail address and I contacted this lady. 

Well today she dropped by with the stuff and I have to tell you that I was surprised at all the stuff that she was giving away.  Now don’t get me wrong, I appreciated all that she gave and it will all go to good use, but I was really surprised at her generosity.  I have to say that purchasing this amount of supplies would have cost me a fortune so I am extremely grateful to her.  I am also extremely grateful to my friend for hooking me up with this lady.

I’ve been a very busy girl!

January 17th, 2008 -- Posted in Crafts, Hobbies | 2 Comments »

Over the past week, I have been making a lot of homemade jewelry. Last weekend I went to our local craft store and bought a ton of beads and supplies so I could get back to making jewelry. So for the past few days that’s pretty much all I have been doing. When I started posting on different forums that I have homemade jewelry for sale, some fellow bloggers suggested that I check out Etsy.com to see about setting up a shop to sell my jewelry. So for the past couple of days I have been looking into getting my own Etsy shop and I took the plunge and set one up. Right now I have five items up for sale, and if they sell, I will then advertise more. The fees associated with this site are quite reasonable, so I decided to give them a try for a little while. If this works out, then you will be able to see a lot more of the jewelry listed on this site.

So, please take the time to stop by my site and see what I have been up to lately.
