Selling Now on Zibbet.Com!

Hi All :)

I hope this finds you well! I've been on the hunt to find another venue to sell our gorgeous beads on without listing fees, or selling fees and that's Zibbet. com! I've just started listing, but I have to say, so far its really easy to do so! Right now, they are offering $7.00 a month for life! That's awesome :)

The staff is very down to earth :) They speak to you at your level and not like your an idiot or think they are superior (ughh, I hate that). So, I'm going to give them a try and hope you'll do the same! The more you're out there the more you'll be seen and the more you'll hopefully sell! Feel free to click on the little white icon down at the bottom of this page and be sure to stop by and check us out as well :)

Have a wonderful evening and Happy Beading!

What does one say?

Hi everyone!

Its been awhile since I've blogged, but I haven't had a clue as to what I should talk about lol. In person, I can talk back and forth with anyone that I come into contact with. Online blogging is a different story! Its so one sided and seems to be a difficult task for me to endure lol. Hopefully soon I'll be able to figure out what is that I need to write about and that you'd be interested in. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Have a wonderful evening! :)

Artfire showing us How to be seen!

Hi all!

I'm pretty excited about what's going on with Artfire and our studio. I'm learning all the ins and outs about SEO. In laymen's terms this means how to be seen when someone is looking for an item using search. There is a big hoopla on the big E and sellers there are complaining because of what is being done with their items and I can't say as I blame them. I'm truly thankful that Artfire is the only place we sell and their support and efforts in making "me" successful, means a lot! If you want to sell your beautiful designs, I seriously suggest you give Artfire a shot!! Have a great week and Happy Beading!

New Front Page on Artfire!

Well the new front page has been unveiled. And I'm trying to determine If I like It. I think it looks great, but as a supplier, I feel I'm stuck over in the corner and I hope that I will not feel that way when its finally completed. The front page was the biggest complaint it seems from other selling sites and why people didn't like Artfire. I honestly don't see anything or any reason not to like Artfire. I feel it will be bigger and better than any other online selling avenue and I'm glad that I'm part of the growth of Artfire from the bottom up. 12 dollars a month to list unlimitedly, no relisting fees, no worrying about having to constantly relist to be seen. Artfire is so the way to go, to get your work, creations and supplies out for the rest of the world to see!!

Artfire new Fusion Studios!

I have to say I'm really excited about the new Fusion Studios on Artfire!! Is basically your own website all rolled up into one without the headache!

For 12 dollars a month you get to set up your studio with your own color choices and styles! There's no listing fees, no re-listing fees and no selling fees! You can't get this any place else! You also get 10 pictures per listing and that's wonderful to where you can take pictures of every angle you can think of on your item!

I highly recommend that you give Artfire a shot! Especially if you're on Etsy. You'll be able to promote and do so much more with Artfire and even link back to your Etsy store! Try it out now! Register on ArtFire.com
I've also listed some wonderful Sea Glass recently, so be sure to take a looksie. We're coming up on our 1 year anniversary for Bead All About It and will be having a great sale to celebrate it!! Thank you to everyone who has been part of our year of fun and exciting times at Bead All About It!!

Happy beading!

Perry County Bead Society Information

Happy New Year everyone!! I just wanted to send a quick note, because I'm heading out of town this weekend to go to visit my mom in Syracuse, but wanted to say that the very first Perry County Bead Society gathering will be Sunday, January 18th from 1-3 p.m. You can bring a project to work on, come get some new ideas, start a project, hang out, get help, have fun, do all of the above :) There isn't a cost to join the PCBS but at some point there will be benefits to being a member. If anyone that's coming would like to bring a snack or something just let me know. Also, I would like a RSVP too so that I can make sure we have enough chairs and table space for everyone :) I think this is going to be alot of fun and I'm excited about it!!

I should have the class schedule out this week, we've really been going nuts (not something new there) but we have discussed the classes we're going to have this month, they just haven't been put in stone yet. I do know we'll be doing a chainmaille necklace this month!!!

One more thing, I would appreciate if you could look to the right of this blog and become a follower of this blog. If I'm not mistaken it will let you know that I've posted a new topic and I won't have to send out the link every time. Have a great weekend everyone!!

Happy Beading!

Merry Christmas All!

I just wanted to take a moment here to wish you all a truly very Merry Christmas and I hope that all your wishes come true. This is the time of year for giving. I for one am making the majority of my presents this year. I've always enjoyed getting a gift that was made rather than bought, this probably why I started designing jewelry. I think people cherish and appreciate it more because they know you took the time and thought for them. I especially love with parents bring their kids in and want to make a piece of jewelry to give Grandma or nana. (Names of grandparents have changed so much since I was a kid) Karen gets called Nina from the younger grandkids and from the older grandkids she gets called nana K. Not sure how all these names came about, but we always called my grandparents, grandma and grandpa.

We'll be closing early on Christmas Eve. Hours will be 10-3p.m. Of course closed Christmas day and we'll re-open normal hours on Friday Noon - 7 p.m. For the new year schedule, we'll be closing early new year's eve. 10 to 3 p.m. and closed New Year's Day.

I'm so excited about the new year and the plans we have for the stores!! You'll just have to wait and see :) Merry Christmas everyone!! Feel free to leave comments here as well. I want this to be an open forum for everyone!

Happy
Beading!
