Etsy Bonus

In just under over two months of selling I've sold 49 pieces of jewelry! As a bonus to the purchaser of my 50th item, I will send a surprise pair of earrings!

Here's a picture of one of the newest additions to my shop:

Thank you to everyone I've interacted with along the way. I've had nothing but pleasant Etsy experiences so far.

Another Etsy first!

I bought my first piece of art! I have loved this print by Dan-ah Kim since I first added it to my Etsy favorites months ago, and it has taken my utmost restraint on several occasions not to purchase it. I finally broke down and bought it last week, and am so happy that I did! I love the simple feminine lines she uses. There are several more things in Dan-ah's Etsy shop that I would like to own someday, go check her out!

8 Days a Week

I worked for the past 8 days straight and I'm worn out! I recently started a new "part time" position that is more related to my psychology background. I am loving the job, but due to the unpredictable nature of "on call" the job has hardly been part time! I can't go into too much detail about the position due to confidentiality conditions, but I am working with at-risk youth and finding the work to be challenging and really interesting. I will be glad to get to the point when I have learned the many details of the job, because for now there are been many days that I leave with a headache from concentrating so hard.

I am so excited to be cultivating my creative side with Etsy while also nourishing my psychology/social service interests with this new job. I have the next couple of days off and am looking forward to working on Etsy orders, updating my shop, and catching up with my roommates and friends.
