The Cows Need to Get to Work!

Cow Coming Home
Hello! Summer is coming to an end here and I am *still* working on getting my little jewelry business going. I am having such fits and starts with it! It is very frustrating but I am not losing my hope - or my desire - to do it, which is a very good sign for me (since I can have a tendency to lose interest when I begin to understand things more.)

Right now I am in the process of expanding my jewelry to include necklaces, bracelets and rings (and maybe even hair-clips in the future). I am also wanting to expand my technique. Currently I melt the glass into enamel by using a stable flame into which I dangle the metal pieces but what if I kept the metal piece stable and dangled the flame instead? (I would do it very carefully, of course!) Hmmmmm. Sounds interesting! There are many options to explore and I am excited to see what results they bring.

I am also planning ahead to two winter shows I am hoping to do and I'm working on a long-term plan to have my own website (not just Etsy) and sell wholesale.

So many things to do!

I have to admit that it's challenging for me to be so excited about so many things I want to do and then to struggle with finding the time (and discipline!) to get to work just *doing* it! I am good at thinking up ideas until the cows come home those cows need to get to work!
