Buster and boo sweepstakes!

Buster and boo is approaching 300 sales! As an incentive to help get there, I am offering a prize drawing.

My shop has all kinds of affordable unique accessories and jewelry, and I list new items every day.

Here's a sample:

So head on over to Buster and boo, and find a great gift for friend, family or yourself. Then, keep an eye out for my shop to reach 300 sales, cause then I'll be drawing the winner, and I'll post it here. Thanks so much for making my shop a success!

Thank You!

I'm Excited

I have an appointment this afternoon with a REALLY upscale toy store. She is interested in carrying my plush dolls AND my scrabble tile pendants.

Keep fingers crossed for me???

UPDATE: YAY! She gave me an order for 4 dolls and 7 scrabble tile pendants. (why 7?) I told her I would deliver them on Friday & she wrote me a check. NOW I have to keep fingers crossed that they sell well there!

Decisions..............

So, if you are an Etsy aficionado, then you know that there are about 80 bazillion scrabble tile pendant shops. My shop, Buster and boo, has been offering them since about February. I've sold over 170 of them. I also have some around the US on consignment, and wholesale.

Etsy is getting more and more crowded. It is more and more difficult to get your work seen. So, I am debating.

My other shop, Woolies, is my true love. I also have some Woolies wholesale accounts. Woolies take much longer to make than pendants. It's a MUCH bigger investment of time.

So, I'm in a dilemma. I am considering slowly closing my pendant shop, and just concentrating on Woolies.

I'll probably leave Buster and boo open through the holidays, and see what happens. The good news is that my pendants were accepted at LollipopShops, which will be opening in December.

And Woolies was accepted at HandmadeFusion.

Because Etsy is a bit of a train-wreck.

What would you do? I love both, but Woolies is my true love. Is it worth it to continue making pendants? Do a search for 'scrabble tile pendants', on Etsy's search. There's over 10,000 of them!

New pendants!

I've been working on all kinds of new pendants;

I'll be listing them in my shop over the next few days.

I was waiting for a shipment of Scrabble tiles, rather

impatiently, and when they finally arrived I made a

LOT! Vintage sheet music, vintage pages from foreign

language novels, and of course Japanese Chiyogami papers

- and I'm always on the look-out for new ideas.

Let me know if you think of any!

What do you think?

MUSIC!!

Musical pendants! For the girl in your life that loves music! What do you think?
