Here's the back-story:
Last year, on the Fourth of July, I was feeling stagnant in my business. I already had a shop on Etsy where I sold my shell nightlights, my mom's jewelry, along with a few of my copper bracelets. Something was missing though.
It didn't feel like 'my' shop; my work felt more like an addendum that just didn't fit. So as America celebrated her independence, I decided to declare my own; a place to explore my own creative freedom.
And what a year it has been!!
I've been blessed with awesome customers who are digging on what I've been creating. As an artist you create what's in your mind and heart... and then cross you fingers and hope that folks will like it too.
That first sale was so cool. I felt like Sally Field; 'You like me. You really like me!' Sounds silly, but it's true! Each piece has a little bit of my heart and soul in it, so it's such an honor when someone else recognizes that.
I think it's time to celebrate!
Don't you?! So the real question is how does one celebrate the 'birthday' of a brand?
By having a super-duper Happy Birthday sale!!
For the month of July I'm offering 30% off everything in my Etsy shop! And it's really simple... you won't even need a coupon code!
(As a side note, my shop will be closed Saturday, July 12th... I'll be at the Indie Craft Bazaar down in Ft. Lauderdale. If you're in the area, stop by and say 'Hi!' And in the meantime, be sure to purchase your favorites... a number of my pieces are one-of-a-kind designs, so once they're sold, they're gone!)
