...that the super talented Debbie from Prairie Emporium whipped up with one of my key connectors! I just love the earthy colors she chose and I think that the yummy chocolate leather is a great contrast to the gloss on the connector and the shiny beads. She said that she has another piece coming that features one of my beads so stay tuned...
I'm so happy to say that the Art Walk Festival this weekend was a success! My legs are killing me from all the standing and bending but it was totally worth it. The weather was just beautiful, not too toasty and the promenade is a wonderful open air venue with terrific shops. Thank you to all the wonderful people who stopped by our table and bought and/or admired my jewelry and also signed up for the Style Substance Soul emails. I got to spend the day with two wonderful, fun women- Amy from Style Substance Soul, and Laura who sells Soulful Charms bracelets. Our table was also right next to Baxter- a remarkable therapy dog that might just be one of the cutest creatures I've seen. He worked all day (it looked like chillin' on the table but he was putting out all kinds of positive energy to his visitors) and was quite the popular stop for the shoppers!
It was so interesting to me the jewelry items that sold and those that didn't move at all. A couple of my absolute most favorite necklaces went to great homes- they looked like they were just meant for the women who tried them on. This necklace in particular was one that I was tempted to price at $300 so I could just keep it for myself!I also found a home for this ring- For me, they sell best in person even though I know people who have a booming business selling wire wrapped rings online.What did not sell... at all... were my cute little porcelain earrings. I even made up 10 extra pairs for the show thinking that they would sell like crazy. I'm a little baffled! It might have been my display, possibly they didn't stand out enough, but even when I pointed them out to people, etc.- nothing! Anyone have any thoughts?
