Clearance

I'm closing my Etsy shop. There's nothing happening in there. The shop is with 25% discount using the coupon code CLEARANCE25 on check out.

It's time for me to move on and create new pieces of jewelry. I have a good stock of stones to set, plenty of ideas in papers all over the house (and in my handbags, I always carry a small notebook and pen).

I miss so much the heat of the torch, the soldering, forming the metal, sawing, filing, having my hands full of silver dust and dirty....I miss the rush!

I will get new tools soon and maybe a new camera to take better pictures.

This is my Etsy shop: http://www.etsy.com/shop/vivilima

If you find something you want but it's a bit expensive, let me know so I can separate it for you to pay in lay away.

Thank you for reading this!

Cheers,

Vivi.

Thank you Vicki!

Etsy or no Etsy..

I've been thinking for sometime if I should continue with my etsy shop. My sales are very very poor, I keep posting new items but people don't seem interested. I don't know what to do, should I keep my etsy shop or not?

This is the link for it:

What do you think?

Please be honest in your advices. Thank you!

Hello Again!

I know. I have been postponing my posts in the blog. First I was away, helping my sister with her clothing making. I must say I'm proud of her; she is such a talented designer! And then, it was vacation. M (my sister) and I rested from the sewing and cutting fabrics and went to the beach. I forgot to mention she lives in Israel, in a city close to the beach and far from the conflicts.

We went to Eilat, on the Red Sea, did some snorkelling, got a tan ;-) and saw dolphins.We had a great time, inspite the suffocating heat.

It's winter here in Lima, a weird sunny winter, and I miss my sister....

I had the chance to meet a local artist who works with glass and makes amazing jewelry. You can find her work here: http://www.etsy.com/shop/Rachelcartglass

Oh, I forgot to mention that I finally reached the 500 fans on facebook!!! A giveaway must be done. I tried to do one in facebook, in my page but I don't know what happened!

Anyway, the giveaway is on but I have to figure how to do it wright. If you can help me, you're more than welcome!

I will try to post some pictures of my travel. Here are a couple, the first one is from Shfayim beach at the secind one from Eilat, at Dolphin Reef.
