I want you to meet Ben (boyfriend named him.haha).He is my car that drives me everywhere but Ben needs tires and an oil change. ]:
With me being out of a job and having no luck finding one at the moment, I'm relying on etsy to give me some money to save up. I've been making new items like crazy and posting every day almost. (: I'm now offering a BOGO sale. Buy any 2 items and get 1 FREE! Best of all,there is FLAT RATE SHIPPING!! That means you only pay shipping on ONE item!!! I'm really excited to get my business up and running. (: Any help at all is very much appreciated.Even promoting me and my shop helps me a TON! && who knows,you might even get an email giving you a code for 50% off if you help get me a sale! (Okay,i lied. you will infact get that code if I get a sale.)

How do you get 50% off?

Simple really.Just some how promote me either on your twitter,etsy,chats,etc. && Get someone to buy something -OR-Buy an item for yourself! (you know you deserve it.) If you get someone else to buy an item from my store, make sure they tell me that you sent them! Its really that simple!!! (: Now all you do at this point is wait for that little code i will email directly to you!

The richmond craft mafia

hello lovelies. (: So tonight is a special night.Going to go to a richmond craft mafia meet and introduce myself to all of the members! (: Boyfriends mom asked me to join her as she has an old student of hers that is in the group.I feel so unprepared though.I wasn't able to get my business cards like i had planned. But word of mouth is just as good.

Hopefully I get a few more sales and some connections with the richmond craft community. (:

Giving.

Hello all. (: So on my trip to Michael's arts and crafts for more goodies,I met a older woman who worked there. She was probably the sweetest employee there that I've met. She showed me all of the clearance items that she was putting up and we started talking.She told me that the anniversary of her husbands death was in two weeks.He had life insurance but it only covered accidental death. ( He died of a heart attack 2 hours after they arrived home from celebrating their anniversary.) She now works 3 jobs to support herself and pay bills. Of course after hearing this story,I told her I had a business online selling jewelry.

Thats when I got the idea to make her a necklace with some encouraging words. The lord was really watching over her after her husbands death.She was given over $1,350 by an unknown person.I found a cute "faith" pendant as well as a blue crystal pendant and yet another cute word pendant that reads "strength." I believe that any person who can go through that much and who works as hard as she does deserves at least a necklace.

So my plan? I have put together a cute necklace I think she will love to signify all of the things she has been through.To never stop having faith and to let her know how strong she is to have gone through that and work three jobs to support herself. I plan on giving her this on Sunday. ( As she told me she works at the Walmart near me that day.) I'll get back to you all and tell you her reaction. (:

Forever Yours Jewelry

It's nice to meet you.

Hello lovelies! (: I have been busy at work making new items and posting like crazy on my twitter and new blog. I also sell on Etsy for those of you that have etsy. You can find all of my links on my main blog.
http://foreveryoursjewelry.blogspot.com/

(:
I just had my first sale there and was featured in a blog! I'm so excited to see what the future holds.

I do wanna give you a little bio of me.I feel its better when you get to know the people you're buying from.What their interests are and what moves them to create so here we go:
Hello! I am Brooke (: I am almost twenty years old and have been crafting since I was five.I've always been interested in anything art.It is a big part of my life.I can be found with a couple of pens and a notebook for whenever I get an idea for a new piece of jewelry. I know its not the best idea when you're driving down a street while drawing up an idea for a new necklace,but it sometimes just happens to me that way. (:

I draw a lot of my inspiration from nature. Flowers,birds,the trees and whatever else is eye catching.I try to create things I would wear.I go for the every day whimsical look with a little bit of vintage and indie mixed in.
