New Items in my Etsy Shop

I just put up a bunch of new stuff I've been making lately into my Etsy Shop. For instance this bunny, I was born in the year of the rabbit and it is this year...so I thought it was appropriate. I hope you like him. I've started making a similar item of a bunny leaping but that one isn't finished yet.

I've also made these hammered heart hoops with garnets for Valentines Day. A random stranger (a buyer not a seller) on Etsy accused me of blatantly copying these from another Etsy seller. But although they had much in common hers were smaller and had no garnets and when I spoke to her about it she was entirely cordial and said that she knows how stressful it can be and not to worry about it basicly. Thank goodness she was so decent, I had worked myself into a bit of a tizzy over the whole thing.



I also made this necklace and a bracelet and earring to match that I have posted.

I am really proud of this necklace I made it was pretty intricate and time consuming but I love how it turned out.

There were a few other bits and pieces too, I've been pretty productive lately. Now that my son has a camera I can borrow when he sleeps. Very kind of him eh? I think so.

Working up some resolve

I am putting my resolutions down in print so that come next year I can reflect on them and see how things went. One thing I am going to do more of is anything that gets me out of the house such as walking, skating, swimming, visiting. Something that gets me out of the house doing anything besides work, shopping and coffee. This would have the benefits of feeling more productive as well as getting more excersise and seeing my friends more often. Another thing is that I would like to put at least one new item in my Etsy store each week. Finally I want to save some money in the hopes of eventually doing a bit of travelling. I have been mooning over photo blogs from all over the world, wishing I was there.
