Me? A blogger?

Wow, I have a blog... never thought it would happen six month ago -- never say never! This is going to take some getting used to.

Why you may ask would I blog? Well, I thought it would help me to market my handmade jewelry site on etsy (http://jzdesigns.etsy.com), and for anyone that might be interested to know more about the person behind the product. I'll be posting about works in progress, and my interests and amusing tidbits.

My etsy shop officially opened on July 1, 2009, but I've had an etsy account since July of 2008. It's taken me nearly a year to get my act together and make it into a reality... especially since I'm been unemployed since this January. I might as well put my "luxury of time" to good use! Being unemployed has been rather nice actually, after I got over the initial shock and dealing with EDD; I truly believe that things happen for a reason. Even though I'm "poor", I'm so much happier career-wise than I was a year ago.

There is still a lot I'm learning daily about selling on etsy. It's a labor of love and I'm finally putting my photography degree and graphic design minor to good use! Being a perfectionist, I need to remind myself that it's a work in progress and not a race to the finish.

I hope you'll enjoy reading this blog and I'll do my best to keep it updated. :)
