2nd annual accessory exchange!

{ a couple examples of last years exchange}

So Last year I hosted an accessory exchange and It was so fun..and I've gotten numerous e-mails asking if we will be doing it again... Last year We did a kid one..and if we have enough interest in doing kids again I will include them as well..if not it will just be for us ladies...
So my friends we are doing it again... How it works... Leave a comment here with your e-mail,  what you like to wear accessory wise and your favorite color... 
I will then send out a mass email to everyone with your partners info....contact your person via email to get each others addresses. The limit is 5-10 dollars for the accessory.The partnership that does the cutest exchange and send me the cutest pictures will both get fascinators from me! 
  So in summary once you have your partner..I pair you up with a partner you send something to her she sends something to you. Along with a cute note or something from where you live...an interesting fact ..funny story..you get the idea... then mail me a picture of your treasures for a chance to enter for teh grand prize.

the dilemma

For a while now I've been wanting to take my etsy shop in a different direction instead of 100's of things in the shop..have about 30 that I make all the time and that I make well... with gorgeous packaging..kind've like a collection. So to make the shop cohesive do I take down all my listings and start from scratch because I have a lot of best sellers I think I would miss but they don't fit with the way I want the shop to feel. I want it to be clean have the same item that I just make in different colors. I want to be unique from all the other accessory shops..make something nobody else has. That dosn't look like anyone elses style.. somthing that is just totally me and my imagination. Which means I'd prob just need head shots and all the editorial images to go away I'm not sure how I feel about that.. The other option would be to do the story telling photos but then have the basic of the product be the one that shows first in the shop to make it feel cohesive...Your thoughts? I think to be the featured seller on etsy you have to step up your game and that is my goal this year. Focus on quality..uniqueness and just being true to what I love..only make things I would wear.

What an amazing graphic designer

I have the pleasure of working with some very creative people and I have to just thank etsy shop blessedannouncments for being so amazing..I love the new layout totally quirky and me. So affordable....and very very professional. I highly highly recommend her shop. Thanks sweet girl!
