First Official Newsletter

It's here! I just did up a VERY first official newsletter for my Etsy Shop! And it's FREE. I did it via Mailchimp. It's really easy to use and there are lots of help via easy to understand videos etc.

Here's a snapshot of my first newsletter! What do you think?

New Ad

It has been a very fulfilling week as I have been quite busy with the shop. I just signed up a new ad contract with a local magazine "Chic" for 6 issues. Here's the ad that they have done up for me for FREE! Superb don't you think? The first issue will be out late Oct. *cross my fingers that it will all go well*

Have you tried placing an ad in a magazine.. Do share your experience and comments.

Hello. My Name is ......

Noticed recently that there are quite a number of sellers who named their jewelry after a person's name. Sometimes there is a correlation between the product and its name but sometimes it doesn't or not explained. Do you think it's more personal to own a piece of jewelry with a name? Does it add to its personality?

I recently just named my very first pair of earrings... Her name is Alice.

Here.. come and meet my other friends, Sophie, Amy and Carrie.... :)

Lock it Up....

Lockets.. they are everywhere... Have you noticed? I think they are so hot right now. I love the brass ones best. I think lockets have a very intriguing charm as they are meant to keep photos of your loved ones like secrets.

Here's my picks at the latest lockets..

Etsy FrontPage - Owl Necklace

WooHoo! I made it to Etsy Frontpage this weekend (Saturday). I was really thrilled to find out that I have made some sales during my short holiday break to Hong Kong... And totally excited to know that it was due to the FrontPage feature by Etsy of my Owl Necklace. Here's the "frontpage" that my item was featured.

My I Love OWL necklace has been one of my best sellers. It features a cute sterling silver owl charm where it's solid (3D) and its wings can be flapped :D

What's In Your Shopping Bag? (August 09)

I was introduced this little cute thing from my friends recently. They are the most brilliant invention to date.

Do you always have the problem of keeping your fringe / hair out of your face when washing it or putting on makeup? What do you use? Headband? or Just tie your hair up?

Now... Try this... Dariya Hair Magic Sheets. It is a little sheet with micro hooks (looks like Velcro) that sticks to your hair and prevents them from falling! How cool is that! Every pack comes in 2 pieces and there are 3 colors to choose from. There are pink, black & blue. I was really tempted to buy the black ones bute my friends discourage me from it cos they have experienced where they walk out of the house with those patches on without knowing!.. lol! :)

It's $7.00 from my local shop. If you would like to try and cannot get any near where you are.. Convo me :)
