This summer has brought a lot of positive attention to my little Etsy shop. It seems that people are enjoying my recent creations and have been using them in their treasuries. I’m very excited to see my work through the eyes of others - it pleases me to no end to know that others enjoy what I do. I was absolutely blown away to find that I made it to the Etsy front page 3 times this summer and am currently in the Etsy Hallowe’en guide.

Being on the the front page wasn’t only  great for my eg, it was great for my store’s popularity. I am now up to 370 favorites, gaining over 40 new fans in one day thanks to this most recent Front page with my Golden Butterfly Mosiac. I am sad to say that I have not had the pleasure of discovering myself on the front page - I deduced it had happened when the views on this item went from 200 to near 700 in a day. Searching through the archives that Etsy keeps on Flickr, I discovered that my hunch had been correct.  I hope that my work continues to garner attention and that my ideas remain fresh so that people will continue to get excited about my work.
