Tea Anyone?

I believe that up until now, the award for the slackest Etsy Shop owner has gone to ... me!  I'm trying to begin to amend that this week.  A few teapots have gone in there today, kokeshi dolls are planned for tomorrow and "Zen Garden Circles" for Friday... next week some more pendants.

Thank you to everyone who has emailed to encourage me to pick up my game!

Can I ask for your advice...?

I'm starting to take the plunge and advertise in a couple of magazines.  You would think that I would have actually put more stuff in my store first but maybe these ads will motivate me.

The first magazine, Yen,  has a lot of young, fresh with a bit of fun fashion in it.  I'm trying to decide between these two photos...

The second one is an eco fashion magazine, Peppermint.  For this one, I want some pieces from my "Eco range" - and my vintage kimono bamboo teapots have been the most popular to date.  Again though, I can't decide which photo to use...

Any thoughts?

My Creative Space

I'm having a big brooch making day (that is a big day making brooches, not a day making big brooches) today and have been sorting fabrics for a customer that wants some red and some blue teapots.

For more creative spaces, Kootoyoo is the place to go!
