I wanted to share with everyone the things I make.
It's a bit of a variety, but there's a good portion of crochet. ;3
Many of my crochet's are cute bags.
I have a select few crochet coin pouches as well and some fun mushroom bags.
I've also gotten into starting to make crochet keychains,
i've only got two, but they're totally cute. ^-^

Thank you ^_^
I made the tiger upon request for my friends mom.
It was my first Tiger and maybe my last.
I'm still not sure how I feel about it, i think it could have come out better.
If I ever make another tiger i'mma have to search for another pattern.

I don't follow patterns much. I look at an image and then just crochet it out and see where I go from there. Everything I have made I have made from my own imagination thus far. I see it in my head and to do it and I just do it. ^^

Really? WOW!!
That is pretty cool. ^_^
When I first started I ended up messing around and came out with this tiny bag thing. It was pretty cute, but I wasn't sure what I was going to use it for. I believe I have it some where still, I'll have to find it sometime and take a picture.

But I guess, once you start making things, you remember how things work so patterns really arn't that necessary, but thats still pretty awesome you make your crochet without the use of a pattern. ;o

I adore your wirewrapped sea glass!
I'm a big fan of anything that is wire wrapped. I've always wanted to try it but I'm afraid.

Thank you :}
It's pretty fun and super easy.
You should try it, ^_^
There's also tutorials on Youtube i've seen that gave me the ideas for the stacked pieces that are wrapped.

Really? How long were you at the craft before you found yourself "good"?
The pictures I saw on your facebook page looked REALLY nice, and I don't think I'd ever reach that quality!

Awww :} hehe
I just know how to take a good picture. ;3

I've been doing all that stuff for a while now, I just take a while to make the things. I want to make sure they're secure and won't break if someone were to wear them.

Alot of the things I've made i've had for almost 2 years now? I don't sell often, i've done a few craft shows where I live. I've done ok. I'm really tlrying to get my website and stuff out there though to reach more people. But even that's hard and takes a lot of pacients.

a good picture of a good product redface

Ah. What have you done for advertising? ;o
I have a tumblr where I post pretty things so I'm going to add some of your stuff to my queue for it, hopefully that will help get you more views/people contacting you 3nodding

Well I'm in a few groups on FB that I advertise on but there are so many people doing the same thing. I've gotten a good amount of likes but hthere it. I've also noticed lately I think people are just liking it to get me to like there place I return where I want people to actually like my stuff not just in hopes of me returning a like for them. You know? I think there tryin to get a lot of likes or something.

I made a tumblr too but haven't done much on it lately.
I also made an Instagram where I lost pictures if things I'd been making

That's awesome though smile thank you!


I did look at our etsy I live your bracelets there's a purplish one you did with bigger beads that's awesome looking, the headbands are pretty awesome too. I've seen some awesome design patterns on Pinterest for those types if bracelets. I tried one once with just beads it came it neat but not as cool as the pattern cause tyre weren't knots to match up too.

Hoe do you go about gettin business in etsy?
I tried it some last year by never sold anything and with the fees it wasn't worth it so I have one thing I crocheted listed right now.

Yeah, that's why I don't advertise my facebook link very often. People will like it and write on my page saying "liked from XXX check out my work!" which is just their way of using your page to advertise #bitter

I like to use my tumblr just to post pretty things. I had a joint tumblr with my sister when we shared an etsy, but as soon as I told her I was tired of doing it with her (long story for that) she kicked me out of everything and used it for her WIP's. In a way, I think that using it just to advertise other work and occasionally my own is better. Mostly because I don't do WIP things lol BUT since you use an instagram, you can connect it to your tumblr and then you get both social media outlets smile

Haha thanks smile I've never done anything with just beads, but if it works for you that's great!

For Etsy I just advertise a lot. There are teams for promotions. The more views/likes you get on your products the more they show up in the first few pages when someone searches something. That with relevant tags in the listing gets you views and sales from the site.
