It's hard to write something that sounds interesting without being too flowerly. And then there's SEO to think about! It's something I'm going to work on.

I cringe thinking of my early work and how much I sold. Hope it didn't fall apart. Yes Lorelei is great at naming here pieces. That comes to me sometimes and sometimes I struggle with it. Thank you for including me as well. I try hard to use quality artisan bead and components. It is difficult to keep the pricing competitive but I hear from my customers how much they appreciate what they receive so it is worth it. I hope to be know for the Artisan designs. Lots more in this post.

My should I just settle for being a crafter? Not a chance! I work hard to make the things I make and feel like "Artisan Jewelry Designer" is the perfect title and well deserved! I would love to be closer to all the classes you have access to in the US, it's so expensive for me to go down there and do it. Maybe one day... It was a great post!

It did change my perspective. People are always telling me how amazing my work is but I usually think well Lorelei Eurto is amazing and I'm no where near that successful.

I have a concept in my head for the story for nearly every piece I make... but I'm afraid it sounds silly, so I probably don't write it convincingly. I'm going to take some time this weekend and really commit to my stories and rewrite them. <br /><br />I also like the idea of limited editions! The natural way of gemstones makes that easy for my beaded earrings, but I hadn't thought of that for my tatted jewelry.

I like that it's short yet comprehensive. I especially love all the display ideas. I will be back to really reveiw those in depth.<br />I think my biggest struggle is defining my style. I have such eclectic tastes. Love vintage, love contemporary, love funky,love grunge and steampunk. It's reflected in my bead supplies and jewlery. It absolutely thrills me as an artist to create in all these styles but I am assessing whether this hurts or helps me as a business trying to find an audience. Perhaps you have some comments on that.Baking Beads in the Keyshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16309751830008221469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5157095593736922566.post-69772778310954676392012-03-09T09:10:33.369-05:002012-03-09T09:10:33.369-05:00These are wonderful ideas!
