It's that time of the year again, uni is over for the semester and Christmas is fast approaching. One would assume that means I now have more time on my hands to concentrate solely on the store, making new products and shipping out orders but I still find myself so busy. I love this time of year though, the weather is really warm here and that Christmas feeling is in the air. I enjoy planning for Christmas too, which might sound crazy, but organising people's presents, food and what I'm going to wear is always something I get excited about.
It also means that I'll be updating products in the store and making some Christmas related items but I'm not sure if I'll make all that much. I tried it for Halloween and it wasn't as popular as I was anticipating. I'm not totally discouraged though!
I'm trying my hand at making imprinted clay decorations to hang on the tree this year, like the ones in the picture below. I think they are just absolutely gorgeous and I'd feel so proud if I could master the art of making them. I tried today and let's just say it's a lot more fiddly and delicate than one might first assume, not to mention I didn't have very good lace to work with. My attempts weren't too bad but I didn't bother taking a picture of the results, haha.
You can find more beautiful ceramic pieces at the dgordon's store on Etsy.
My store is doing pretty well and I'm steadily making more and more sales which I'm really happy about :)
The most popular things I've sold at this point are:
Paopu Fruit in a Bottle Necklace
Soot Sprite
I'm unable to make any more listings for the Paopu Fruit at this moment or any other items with bottles of that size. My local supplier no longer stocks them but I've just ordered a whole bunch online and I'm planning on making some more once they arrive, I'm hoping that happens before Christmas. So, with some luck, they will be up and listed within the next few weeks.
That's all from me, for now!
Have a peachy day ^_^
