New Chain

I added some ball chain to SweetGeorgiaBeads today. This chain is 2mm and comes in Silver, Gunmetal and Gold colors. I also listed matching connectors in packs of 30.

This is great chain for scrabble tile pendants, glass pendants and other cool pieces.

Already Played a Bit....

Oooolala! Here is the first piece I have made with my new goodies!! Woot!!! I love it!! I had a bad problem in the past with creating a piece and then not wanting to part with it. Also, a great way to advertise is to wear your products!! So, I killed two birds with one stone. When I create something, I make two! One for me to wear and advertise and one to go on Etsy :)

Yummy Goodness

Do you know what a "good mail day" is? It's a day when you get Etsy goodies or orders in the mail. This week I have received some yummy new beads and findings to create with. I want to play with it all!! Weeeeeee

I love making these. They are so fun! I made some as Christmas gifts for Christmas 08'.

Yes, I know, I am a bad blogger!

Wow, Its been sooooo long since I blogged. I have no excuse really. I did open up my supply shop and got very busy with it. Still no excuse.

I have been creating so many new jewelry pieces lately. My style has changed so dramatically since I started out. I can't wait to start listing my new pieces!

Here's a preview:


I will be adding my new pieces as soon as I get all of my supplies loaded into my inventory program. Yay!

New Shop Coming Soon!!!!

In the next week or so, I will be opening a new shop selling beads and findings! How cool is that?

It will be at http://sweetgeorgiabeads.etsy.com

I have ordered LOTS and LOTS of beads and findings. Glass beads, semi-precious stone beads, findings, charms and lots more! I can't wait to get the store going!

"Yeah But I've Bought on that Auction Site Before....

and they weren't very friendly."

Oh....Etsy is a TOTALLY different place from that auction site!

The sellers are SO friendly. Many of them will do custom work for you! One of my first purchases was from http://www.noveltycreations.etsy.com She had one of the KEWLEST purses there. Then I read the dimensions for it. Whoa! too big for me. I don't like large handbags. So....I "convoed" her. (you can send messages directly to sellers by way of "convo." ) I asked her if she would use that fabric to make me a smaller sized purse. Absolutely!! I am now the proud owner of a custom made just for me handbag. :)

As I said, many Etsy sellers will do custom work happily!

The etsy community is wonderful. Its not dog eat dog like at that other place.

Buy Handmade and Be Original!!

So I am a thrifty shopper. I don't like the retail prices of clothing, so I often buy my shirts and pants secondhand.

A lot of the clothing you can purchase at these places are not the "newest" fashions. I was grocery shopping at my local Kroger and I actually saw a woman wearing a pair of capris just like mine!

It's always a bit awkward to me to see someone wearing the same clothes as I am or someone that has the same purse or whatever else.

That's what makes Etsy so cool!! Etsy is all about handmade. Hand made purses, clothing, jewelry, decorative items, fun stuff and so much more! You won't find mass produced items there. So when you purchase something on etsy, you dont have to worry so much about running into someone wearing clothes like yours, etc.

So Buy Handmade and be original!!!!!
