My Very First Etsy Treasury...All That Glitters...

This is my very first Etsy Treasury! I wanted to capture pretty images that utilized both gold and silver. I love mixing the two metals and often wear them together. I currently have gold braces, which I absolutely adore because they make me look younger, and recently got silver bands. So, here is my tribute to my mixed metal braces:

BBB Wrap-up

It's been awhile since I last blogged. Let's play catch-up!

The 2013 Boutique Bridal Bazaar was awesome. It was my first show ever and I learned a lot and got to see some really pretty things and taste some wonderful goodies! Unfortunately, I didn't sell any stands and I came down with the worst case of the flu ever along with a bad sinus infection. But overall, it was a great opportunity to do something new to promote my business. I learned a lot about networking and self-promotion. 

It was a very cold day and was sunny out, but dark inside. It was very difficult for me to take pics of my table which I thought was really pretty. I'll try to clean up the pics and post them a little later...

My major takeaway from this experience is that no matter how great a product you have, you have to sell it and yourself. You have to be organized, confident, and prepared. Every opportunity is a chance to make a lasting impression with a potential customer.
