How could I be so forgetful? What I meant to say was "handcrafted jewelry created from only the highest quality materials." With thousands of Etsy members, handcrafted stopped being unique a long time ago. It seems that jewelry only gets popular if a celebrity wears it. Isn't that sad? Ha! How could I be so forgetful?

I'm so glad to see that I am not the only Jewelry Designer who is struggling with using the amazing information we collect! I have been trying to post a Constant Contact Newsletter and have been having the same problem.I have decided to follow the "progress, not perfection" rule. I will simply post the "bloody" thing and tweek it as I go along. I had to remind myself that the Jewelry I design and create now, is not the same as when I started. I will simply have to grow into this too. You will get it done, but I understand. BTW, you left out "using professional quality supplies" and "handcrafted" followed by the usual list of supplies.:-) I see your work as being inspired by a love of nature's beauty and very organic.

That, or maybe create some mystery locations from which to sell my jewelry. What do you think?

It's not the stone or the silver, it's the way it's sold, talked about, connected to the community... Look for the free prize, the bonus, the extra.
