the plan is to create an Etsy shop. I keep dragging my feet because I don't care for taking pictures. I also need to make a few things. I managed to sell out this holiday season and don't have a single box and very few new pieces of jewelry. January and February tend to be hibernation time for me. I find it hard to get motivated to create. I try not to worry about it as the urge to make things always comes back as the days get longer.

I was inspired by some of the pictures on my old posts. I want to get back to working with metal clay and really, really want to buy a kiln. I should just do it. Charge it and pay for it a bit at a time. I am trying to get my finances back in shape after my very unsettling 2010. Makes me hesitant to make such a large purchase.

My other venture will be to get into the Schenectady Farmer's Market. I was pushed out of the Troy market because they decided to no longer take daily vendors. It was a blow because I loved going there, did great business and had a bit of a following. I still can't quite figure out why they ousted me as I filled space before alot of the vendors with produce wert in full swing. I'm hoping that the Schenectady market will be as much fun and profitable as well.
It's been 4 years since I've posted anything. Right now I'm just trying to see if my posts show up on the correct blog. Too many e-mail addresses and passwords have been used and forgotten in 4 years.
