I made a pendant with the binary version of my first initial, M. :)
(when I make letters, I might as well start with mine!)

Flashback
... to senior year of high school (when I learned about binary code)!
I've seen some jewelry with binary code in the past, and I'm thinking about doing some of my own (no copying)! I like this idea because binary code can be used in jewelry in order to display a secret message.
Somebody (including me) could wear a necklace that says either normal things, mushy things, or even really weird things and (almost) nobody would ever know!

Target Market?
I got an Etsy conversation from someone who featured an initial pendant on her blog. As always, I was excited and checked it out! I LOVE the site! Plaid + Hound is a bloglooks for new products and designers that have preppy, modern style! I think that this blog has products that my target market looks for! Here's their description of themselves:
"Plaid + Hound is a web magazine for the prepster moderne. We find modern day things with a preppy twist, keeping it deliciously stuffy."
I've been looking for my target market lately, and yep, they've got it. You see, I'm not sure if the stereotypical Etsy shopper/craft show shopper is my target market. Nothing against them, but they may be more hipster than I'm really going for. I love the hipster look but my look is definately more preppy/modern. Just read my mission statement:
"MollyStuff Design's mission is to create affordable fine jewelry and fine art that can be appreciated for it's everyday simplicity and long-lasting beauty."
Okay, I'm rambling but I'm sort of typing and thinking at the same time. That's what blogs are for, right?

New Search Pictures in My Shop!
I didn't really change much, except I rearranged the order of a lot of my pictures so the first pictures (the ones that show up in searches and timelines) of most of the jewelry in my shop are different! (that was a mouthful!)
I did this because I was thinking that my shop looked too uniform before. What do you think? Is this an improvement?

Stamped Collection
Here's a link to my new Stamped Collection. It's all really simple stuff- great to buy as presents with a little personal touch. :)
These are a great alternative to my Initials Pendants. Especially for when you need to buy multiples on a limited budget!
