Big Sale Coming, plus My New Projects
Starting in ONE WEEK is my biggest sale of the year – only in my Etsy shop! You can get 25% Off your total purchase OR Free Shipping on your total purchase! Use coupon code BFCM25OFF or FREESHIP12 for your choice. When is this amazing sale you ask? Starting Black Friday, through Small Business Saturday and Cyber/Handmade Monday. And I’ll probably activate the coupon codes sometime during the day on Thanksgiving so you can even shop that night while you’re fighting off the turkey-coma. So that’s November 28th through December 2nd.
I’ve also been busy making new things and will do my very best to get those photographed this weekend and listed next week so you’ll have them to shop from during the sale (my awesome photographer is busy with her own pre-holiday rush, so you’ll have to settle for my pretty good photos instead of her amazing ones). Among the new things I’ve been making – I started playing with chain maille! OMGosh it’s so much fun! I’m starting with simple things like the Christmas Tree and Snowflake ornaments you see below. The Tree is about 2.5″ (6.4 cm) tall and the snowflakes are about 1.5″ (3.8 cm) tall. Each will have a handmade spiral aluminum hook – and I could probably even make them as pendants! The snowflakes are even small enough to be earrings. They’re aluminum, so they’re pretty lightweight. Once I really have these down, I may move to chains – I’ve been wanting to learn the byzantine weave since before I even knew you could do it with chain maille! 
I recently made my first sales to Israel and Paris and am SO excited I had to zoom out my map to see more of the world! Someday I hope for sales on every continent. I’m also aiming for all 50 of the United States plus Washington DC, and our 4 territories. So far, I have 31 of those – more than half way there! Here’s my fancy new map. 🙂
