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!

MollyStuff in Etsy's Geek Gift Guide

I found this out a while ago but now I'm officially blogging about it! Haha. My Windsor Tie Pendant is on the second page of the Geek Chic Gift Guide over on Etsy! I waited too long to post it so it's on the second page (the items in gifts guides start on the first page and slowly make their way down as more things get added every day) and I can't make an Etsy Mini that includes my pendant. Boo! Oh well. Check out the gift guide and all of the other items in it!

Logo: in Action

MollyStuff was on display/for sale at Craftin' Outlaws last Saturday, and the new logo was in full force! First of all, I had a new sign:


MollyStuff also had new earring/jewelry cards:


Check out more photos from the show over at MollyStuff's Facebook fan page!

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!)

MollyStuff on Front Page!

Good news! Another MollyStuff initial pendant was on the front page of Etsy today! I was alerted on Tuesday that my M pendant was featured in a "Miss Muppet" themed treasury on Etsy (TheLostEarring made it!). Yay! I was excited about that, and I was even more excited to see that the treasury was featured on Etsy's front page earlier today!



I wish I caught these things as they were happening... but better late than never! (thanks, craft cult!)

MollyStuff on Etsy's Front Page!

Hi there! I haven't been on Craft Cult in a while, so when I looked at it yesterday I was surprised to see a bunch of new hearts for my shop! I went to the Vault and found that one of my initial pendants was on the front page of Etsy on September 11th!

Sneak Peek: Glam Collection

I've listed a couple of my new pieces but here is the collection (so far)!

I need to take new pictures of the next 2, but here's an idea:


This was a custom piece that I'm hoping to add to the Glam or Geek Collection. Gotta love Ohio!

I don't know where I'm going from here, but I promise it won't be boring.

USA!

Hey y'all,

Hope you have a super 4th of July! May you see fireworks and eat burgers!

M = 01101101

I made a pendant with the binary version of my first initial, M. :)

(when I make letters, I might as well start with mine!)

Be Creative

B E Creative!
I'm excited to start listing new stuff. Soon...

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?

MollyStuff Special Offers for the YART Sale!

I'm participating in the Etsy-wide YART Sale this year! It technically starts on Wednesday but I'm getting started a little bit early! Check out the YART Sale section at my shop!

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!

In Case You Missed It...

... I know I did... missed it by 5 minutes!

My "specs" were on Etsy's front page! (from 9-10pm)

Cheers!

Free Shipping Sale!

I'm having a free shipping sale until 2:30pm tomorrow (5/20/09) afternoon! Also, this will be your last chance to get a dancer pendant for a while because I'm going to remove them from MollyStuff (after the sale tomorrow) for a while!
Cheers!

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!

New Business Cards

I'm thinking about changing the colors and stuff for my shop, but since I've started with pink... I'm goin' with it!
