Personal

I am a small business owner who lives with her husband and adult special needs daughter. We have a set of sons who live not too far away and one of them works for me. I have been into beading since I purchased a chest of beads and findings at a local antique’s market, about 15 years ago. I still have that chest and some of those beads but I have been steadily selling off the ones I won’t use, on ebay. I have always loved jewelry making since I took classes for it in high school. My high school rocked!!!!
My tastes are eclectic and I make more than I wear and what I sell I sell to raise $$ for charity. It used to be that I could do shows and sales at local churches but that is not possible now so I make to give or hold or wear, hoping for a festival soon.

My biggest struggle is pricing. Anybody have any tricks or strategies? I sell vintage freshwater pearls and other beads from the 1970s – 1990s under the user name, tepsmom, on ebay. I try to sell my jewelry as eclectic_aftermath, there as well, https://www.ebay.com/usr/eclectic_aftermath. Okay, I even sell other things at, https://www.ebay.com/usr/vintage_stuffs

    I, too, just love it! I love how you find ways to put things together that don’t look too busy, just right.

    I just love this! I adore all Czech glass so you have a winner as far as I am concerned! Looks like a bowl of mixed Gelato with lots of fun sprinkles on top! Great job!
