The Shutterbug Eye - Updates and changes

So I felt it time to do an update on my shops and plans for The Shutterbug Eye.

I had the fun experience last weekend of being the Artfire Crazy Train rider.  While on Artfire as a verified, or pro, member I have listed well over 200 photo items, promoted myself and others and yet I feel like I have created largely a gallery.  My few sales have been mainly to friends, my page hits are not where I'd like them to be dispite trying to write good titles and such.

I am moving in the following directions:

1. Getting all of my best pieces categorized in galleries on my website.
2. Listing my favorite pieces on Etsy to maintain a limited best of selection there.
3. I plan to purchase a pro member on Flickr which is only $24 per year and put all my best pieces by category there.
4. I will continue to feature other artists on My Handmade Site though may change how I do things slightly
5. I will continue with my photo blog The Shutterbug Eye

I hope that limiting my focus, as I was trying to manage Artfire, Etsy and 1000 Markets, will make life less stressful, help me enjoy the process again and hopefully be successful.  I will not shut any store, I simply do not plan to manage them anymore.

 

 

If you wish to see my full selection visit me at http://www.theshutterbugeye.com and look at my galleries.

Craft Junky - great crocheted slippers on Etsy

Today I am featuring an Etsy store as I hope to make this blog more than just one venue but all of handmade.  Today's featured shop is Craft Junky who makes colorful, stylish crocheted slippers and house shoes.

The first item I want to share is this pair of Pink Crocheted rubber foam soled shoes.  The soles are just 5mm thick so that the shoes are still handy to slip in your purse and bring anywhere.  Check them out:


Ladies size 7 1/2 to 8 Crocheted Indoor Slippers
(slip-ons with rubber foam sole)

There are many other cute slippers in Craft Junkies store so I am going to share one more pair, a maryjane, because I just love all maryjanes.


Ladies Size 8 1/2 to 9 Crocheted Indoor Slippers
(maryjanes with rubber foam sole)

Be sure to stop by Craft Junky to see the full selection of stylish crocheted indoor slippers as I can only show a couple here.

Adorable finds at Wearable Art Huggable Friends

Today I am featuring Wearable Art Huggable Friends from Artfire.  This store caught my eye because of this adorable crocheted purple elephant:


Crocheted purple elephant 3.5 inches tall

When I was little I didn't have a teddy bear, I had an elephant.  I went through so many, my parents would replace them while I sleep.  This just caught my eye and made me remember all the stories I was told about me and my elephant.

There are other great finds at Wearable Art Huggable Friends too such as this beautiful hat, see I'm sharing a huggable friend and some wearable art:


Blossom Hat Large 20" hand knit cream and peach

Make sure to visit Wearable Art Huggable Friends to see all the wonderfully beautiful and adorable items.

As I was attracted to Wearable Art Huggable Friends due to the really cute huggable friends  I think I will stick with the cute them when I share one  item from my shop The Shutterbug Eye.
