Starting to wrap up for chill and foggy mornings of Autumn ...

17/9/2018

I have already bought a bunch of Vitamins and Minerals to top up for coming Winter. But other than that I'm up to usual. Multicrafting :D

I usually chicken out of custom orders because I have few occasions when I'm all up to it but when I have started making, person so interested in just disappears.

But this lovely purple JOY sign in the background has started its' way to new owner.

And so we meet all kinds of people, don't we?

And with the Autumnal chills in the air comes my photo taking days with low light. Like one today!

I have planned to take pics of all my Cement pots for Etsy store today. I will have to pull out all white sheets and use them to create more light.

What would one crafter do for its' crafts!!!

Classic picture: our sitting room blocked from all exits with photo props, sheets, chairs as a holders together. All lights on! And me on the floor with camera doing yoga figures to get the right snaps of my makes. Gas!

I can do that only when I'm alone home on my days off!

This is one of them days. So let's get cracking!

Saw this quote on Facebook shared by one crafts addict, another one like me. So me!

Taking Summer break for now and leaving half done Welcome sign, bags of flowers for Halloween project, wind-chime from shells and ceramic fishes.... last one probably can stay till the next summer, cement bags and empty cottage cheese containers.... Happens all the time!

My Etsy store will stay open but posting will resume only on 27th of August.

I have just decided that I will offer 15% off my makes until 27th August. Why not!?

The promotional code is BeachTime

Over the last week or two I have done few experiments on Social media platforms, Facebook and Instagram promoting my post and buying followers.

This bloody social media is so huge part of everyday life these days that if I want to get what I do with my Craft out there I have to participate and mingle in Facebook, Insta, Pinterest and many more which I don't know and don't think have any time for more than I am on already.

You see, I'm not that outgoing talking to everyone on the bus person and I don't owe many friends on Facebook. Well, I decided to pay some money to boost my unpopularity.

If you read feedback or reviews about getting follows and engagements, and they say they are not real people that engage then I say it is true.
Going back to my boosted post from my business page which is my platform for sharing decors and artistic endaviours I wanted to go further and seen more.

People who liked my post cannot be invited to like my page and no one actually checked out anything else on the page. Maybe two people... and whats interesting! Engagements by women costed twice as much that mens! That's how you do business DCA!

At the moment I'm testing Insta thing. Will see how it goes. At the moment, zilch. I think they have missed my order so I will probably will have to contact them mysterious people in Canada to get some job done for my dollar. Hopefully I wont get into much trouble from admins indasky who can put cross over to my fruits in WWW.

And then I promise I will rest my curiosity and just keep crafting!

P.S. I hate to repeat but all photos are taken by me and all those sweet artistic little pieces I made, you can buy!
Don't be shy like me and put your fingers on texting machine and let me know if you want them.

Well well, my week off ends now.

It's time to wrap up all the projects started, finished ones and half-way ones.

I has been intense time for me. It's probably wasn't that obvious for my home crowd but it was for me.

Psychically and mentally .. i was catching up

Catching up with what exactly? I could not tell you!

I made a few cement pots and one experimental cement vase with glass tube resting now besides blackboard globes.

I painted it with such a strong yellow paint that its basically radiates light. Sunshine which has just exhausted here in Ireland.

This chunk of home decorating and stylish living magazines is left almost untouched.

AGAIN!

Well, again!

Just a pictures for now...

because I have started so many projects I cannot even get the flow of pics going .. as they say

I know its so random. But that's how I roll.

I have had few of Dandelion wall decors in my Etsy store and they sold pretty fast.

Meanwhile me, like a true artist just kept creating new designs and dismissed what public wanted to see.

So now I have new smashing hot dandelion on the shelve!!!

I used my favorite find, an old cottage door planks. It is original green paint with pieces of chippy blue paint leftovers.

I just had to keep the vintage look!

White dandelion distressed with a little bit of dark wax. Originally the green wood was a little bit lighter shade but I used clear wax all over my piece which made it slightly darker in colour.

This piece is full of character and vintage holes. If you appreciate old and pretty, you will love it!
