Revisions & Additions

Well, I have had my Etsy shop for a little over a month.  I have even had a few sales.  Nevertheless, I spent some time looking over the photos of the items I have listed...and I decided that I could do a better job of displaying my jewelry.  So, I am spending time taking new photos and then replacing old photos with better new photos.

For the ones that I have completed, the listings look greatly improved  -  at least to me.  For example, I have a necklace with Lapis, but the blue did not show up very well in the original photos.  Now, the blue in the pictures is quite vivid.  Here is a demonstration of the difference for this particular necklace.

It's a work in progress, but I hope my shop will be better when I finish.

Along with trying to improve my shop, I find I have a slight propensity toward jumping from one project to another.  This week that included pulling out some vintage and craft items that will eventually make it into my Etsy Shop.  So far, I have posted these two items -

First is this Angel that I made from an old hymnal, published in 1955.

Second is this set of ceramic fruit wall hangings that I came across.  They are in pristine condition, circa 1970s and a product of HOMCO Home Interiors.

One last important piece of business -
