I hope the title was constructed properly! Learning how to conjugate special verbs, and sentences with direct and indirect objects in Spanish can be really tricky.

Anyhow, YES, I do love receiving parcels! Yesterday, I got my fabric purchase from alittlegoodness in Japan. Honestly, everything from Japan is just so much cuter.

Resolutions and an Etsy sale! Yay!

Here are a few of my Etsy/internet-related new year resolutions!

  • NOT to turn on my computer first thing in the morning. Instead, water my plants, read, pray, do stretching exercises…
  • To spend only about 2 hours on Etsy forums/blogs/other sites promoting my store
  • To list at least one or two new items every day
  • To learn new beading techniques to incorporate into my other fun media (clay, resin) projects

I’m hoping that in doing the above, I will get to be more creative and make more beautiful items. 🙂

Btw, I got another sale @ my Etsy store today from a stranger, who bought this item for USD16.50:

So pretty, innit! I think I’m gonna make more charm necklaces soon. They’re fun to make and oh, so beautiful. More bead shopping today! HURRAY!

But first, uhm, I NEED to study Spanish. NEED to.

Oui, tres, tres faim.

Before I go eat breakfast, here are some of my latest jewelry delights. Some are posted on Etsy and some I will wait to post a little later. I’m hoping more people will shop with me and support my 1-month-old store! Everyday I’m racking my brains to think of new ways to promote this store. This month, in conjunction with my article in the Singaporean Business Times newspaper, I decided to extend FREE shipping to all buyers in Singapore till Jan 30. Of course, shipping within Australia is FREE. And shipping everywhere else is only USD1. Keeping it competitive.
