I’ve done veryyyy little beading jewellery wise for well over a year now. I think it’s a case of just getting disheartened when very little sells, not that I’m really marketing myself lol

It was getting close to the stage where I was going to give up the jewellery making altogether and just stick to creating lampwork beads, but I could never quite get to the stage of selling off all my precious beadies. So I’ve decided to redirect my focus instead.

I’m going to basically just stick to making earrings, as they seem to be the only thing that occassionally sells for me. This way I can make a bunch of them in a short amount of time, and get them up on my site regularly.  Hopefully, I’ll get into a system that I’ll list some new earrings each week.  I’ll still get to play with my sparklies. :-) 

If I feel the burning need to make a necklace or bracelet, I’ll still have my stuff for that, but I wont let that be my focus. If they happen, they happen.

I’m actually feeling more ‘lightened’ since making this decision, so I definitely think it’s the way to go for me.   I suppose in a sense it’s a 2010 new year’s resolution. 

To clear my stock of ‘non-earring’ items, I’m going to pop them on sale - 40% off. 

Now to just clean up my beading desk and sort everything out so I actually have somewhere to bead!!
