Get Ready for the 2nd Annual Eco-Chic Craftacular!

I won't be vending this year, but I will be there! Please check out the new website and share it! :)

Etsy Team Columbus Treasury

Gotta love Columbus, Ohio! Thanks, SpaceDog, for including my "specs" in your Columbus treasury on Etsy! :)


Go check out some of the other fabulous goods from the Midwest! Cheers!

Alternate in Front Page Treasury

MollyStuff's Windsor Tie Pendant was an alternate in a treasury that was featured on the front page of Etsy. Woot!

(oh yeah, check out my fellow Etsy Team Columbus member TsuruBride's clutch!)

Wanted: MollyStuff Designs

I'm ready to be an outlaw!


Well... actually... I have a lot to do before the show on 10/17! I'm so honored to be accepted as a vendor at this cool show, and I'm looking forward to sharing my jewelry with everyone there. Check out the website and all of the other vendors! There will be a bunch of us representin' Etsy Team Columbus!

Eco Chic Craftacular Weekend... Success!

Wow... I had a blast at the Craftacular that our Etsy Columbus group put on! I'm sure I'll post more pictures of my setup, but here's a picture that ArtsiBitsi took!

Eco-Chic Craftacular Swag Bags

Here's what MollyStuff is donating to the Craftacular swag bags! They're little promo rings that were cheap enough to make and give away!

I hope that the people who get them (for free) think that they're fun!

I'm packaging them in clear baggies with a business card... maybe I'll post a picture of the complete package later.

Punk Challenge

I created this pendant for the Etsy Team Columbus Punk challenge. It's a new addition to my Geek Collection. Please vote for my rockin' necklace over at the ETC blog when the time comes!
Party on.

A Festive Flirtation

Out of the Pink Sky of Etsy Team Columbus included one of my snow pendants in her treasury, A Festive Flirtation! There are some other Etsy Team Columbus members included in the treasury, so please check it out while it lasts!

Here's a screen print:

Mind Mapping

I'm giving a "seminar" on mind mapping in my house tonight for Etsy Columbus! Woooot. I just wrote the outline and I found some fun files of old mind maps. My favorite was this crazy "scents" mind map from my days at P&G. I hope I'm not breaking any laws by sharing this but I really doubt that this would be of any importance to anybody. Seriously... what the heck? This doesn't make any sense anyway... scents to baby skin problems? Hmm...

Powell Street Market

Yesterday, I set up a booth next to a few other Etsy Team Columbus members in Powell, Ohio:

We were set up in the sun with no tent! It was so hot... we eventually moved to under a tree.
Here's my little table and set-up: It's way better than my set-up at my first show!
These are my promotional pins from PromosInASnap. I gave a lot of these away yesterday!

MollyStuff Collections

Inspired by Etsy Columbus Michelle's "Pimp Your Shop" seminar today, I reorganized my shop! I would like to narrow it down even more but for now I have 5 "collections". Sounds pretty serious, right? They're basically just themes I've found going on in my store. For now they all belong in one shop because... yeah... that's all I can handle! Here are the collections with a sample from each and a link to each one.

From the Circles Collection:


From the Dancer Collection:

From the Art Nouveau Collection:


From the MollyStuff Fashion Collection:

And last but not least the Drops Collection:

Etsy Columbus in the Pink Collection

I'm in another treasury, this one is featuring pink items from Columbus... yay! Here's a screenshot and link!

Think Pink... Think Stink?

I did my first ever art/craft festival today... vending at one, that is. I prepared for it as much as I could but I didn't think about wind! It was soooo windy outside! Anyway, here's a picture of my set-up.

I think I need to get a big, bright sign to put at my table...

I don't know if I'll do this festival again... we'll see when next year comes around. There weren't very many people around to even talk to! We ended up packing up a little early just because there was no crowd.

Many thanks are going out to my family members who came to help out and buy things! ^_^ It was also nice to see some Etsy Team Columbusers out today!

Etsy Columbus Wedding Challenge Entry

Here's the actual pendant that I'm entering into the Etsy Columbus Wedding Challenge! It's listed in MollyStuff, called Romance in Yellow.

Etsy Columbus Wedding Challenge

I've been working on a design for the Etsy Columbus Wedding Challenge. Here's a sketch of what I'm planning on making!
The pendant will be hand-cut out of sterling silver with a yellow crystal bead hanging from it. I'll probably make earrings that match it... oh and coordinating bridesmaid jewelry? Oh boy... the deadline is Sunday!
