Friday is finally here and I'm wrapping up my week. My day will be filled with finishing the processing of orders that came in this week and hopefully making the final touches on projects I'm completing so they can be photographed and listed next week.I received a lot of great comments on my post yesterday about advertising...thank you to all my commenters! It appears that you have helped several people with this issue! I realized that I utilize more advertising than I actually thought! I don't know why I got it in my head that advertising isn't advertising unless you pay for it, but Twitter and Facebook are advertising, too. Now if I could only remember to keep them all updated! Why does there never seem to be enough time in a week to accomplish everything I set out to do after my Monday staff meeting?! Doesn't it seem that there is always one more thing to do?
Before I forget the shout-out, Casto Creations is hosting a giveaway from Dana's Jewelry Design.
You may remember my posting a couple weeks ago for a giveaway of this fabulous copper set by Dana. Well, I lost, but never fear! Casto Creations is giving you another chance! And it's easy...you don't have to comment on her brother's girlfriend's mother's blog 20 times! For a chance at this great set, click on the picture!
Which reminds me, a dear blogging friend will be hosting a giveaway for me in the coming weeks...keep your eyes pealed for the info forthcoming!In other news, I finished Harriet and Friends 1000 Comment Challenge for the month of March. See my little award on the right?! Whew...it was a lot more work than I thought! I actually ended up racking up 1002 comments, I got so into the swing of finishing it. Harriet and Friends will be having another challenge in April, so if you want to get in on the fun, stop on by! You, too, could have a cute little widget! Be warned, though, you must stay disciplined to complete it!
Let's see...I baked a bunch of rolls for a fund raiser at church, nursed my teen daughter back to health this week (she had bronchitis and another sinus infection), finally got around to applying for an Etsy street team I have been wanting to join, and am working furiously to inventory my pieces to chart the cost of goods per piece. All this while trying to create new pieces! Whew...busy week!
So, why the nose art picture at the top of the post? I love all things World War II, even the nose art on the planes! I have been dying to paint my own little nose art on the front quarter panel of my Jeep...imagine how cool it would be! Bettie (my glossy black 1987 Jeep Cherokee tricked up with dark tinted windows...can you tell I love her?) with a cool painting of a pin up girl pulling up in the church parking lot! This is why I haven't done it yet! I love Bettie so much (of course, she's named after Bettie Page!) that every ding, scratch and rust spot gets her a visit to the doctor so fast...She is so well taken care of, if you didn't know Jeeps, you would never know she was over 10 years old! I want to still be driving her when I'm 80! If I want Bettie to take care of me, I have to take care of her, but what can I say? She's my girl so that's easy!
