Etsy Shop Update

This week I am revamping my etsy shop. I'm creating some new products, a whole new line of earrings, new earring cards, business cards, and much more. Adam and I are going to be working together to to make a ton of product and take it to a flea market to sell as a sort of test run to see if we want to do festivals next year. I'm excited about it, but also a little nervous at the same time. Selling online is a lot easier because I don't hear people taking about my product. I don't here any criticism. But selling at a flea market or a festival I'll be right there hearing every word. So it just makes me nervous. I want people to really like what I make, and I hope that I can sell a good amount to be able to actually contribute financially to our debt. Most of all though I want people to be able to enjoy my creations as much as I enjoy making them. So hopefully all goes well. I'll be posting more updates as I go, and hopefully sometime next week I will have all of the new products up on etsy.

Here are what my business cards look like... they are dip dyed using dylusions spray inks and water. I'll probably do more colors, I just haven't gotten that far yet.

Galaxy shorts

Here they are... My galaxy shorts. Sorry the pics aren't the greatest. Out in the sun you can see the colors a lot more, but I really like them. 

                               So... Here is the front of the shorts.........
                          .......and..... Here is the back........


I took pictures of them on me, but they weren't very good. So I'll spare you. 
I'm kind of in love with this galaxy style right now, so I may be posting some more galaxy inspired projects. I made a shirt as well, but its not quite done yet. So I'll post those pictures later. Let me know what you think, and if you are interested and I could do custom orders from my etsy shop.

Galaxy

Today I am going to embark on a new adventure. I saw a video on YouTube of a girl spray painting a pair of shorts to look like the galaxy, and they were freakin awesome. So that's my plan for the day. I'm gonna go check out Goodwill and find myself a pair of black shorts or pants and then head to Walmart or Lowe's for some spray paint. Hopefully it will all turn out well, and I'll post pictures or maybe even a video later... It might be tomorrow before. I have it all ready, but I will definitely let you see the finished results. I'm really excited about this project.
