Having a blast and learning much about marketing my jewelry with our Etsy Street Team; ShowMe Etsy! We have been very busy! Thus far, we have sold and Tower Grove Farmer's Market, Lucas School House, and GSLAA Hot Jazz Cool Art Festival.
We currently have meetings monthly at different locations around St. Louis and Metro East area.
Our next venture is our own show, The Crazy Autumn Art and Craft Show, October 16th at SqWires Annex in Lafayette Square. We are very excited as Etsy has promised us promo items for the show!
I am learning it takes much effort and time to have a successful business in hamdmade jewelry, especially since the jewelry market is so saturated. I truly believe I can do this! It is difficult, though with working a full-time job as a Critical Care Nurse. I'm so exhausted some days after a 12 hour shift.
I am always promoting myself through different social websites, Etsy, and word of mouth. I also believe in Karma, so I actively promote all that I feel have integrity and make good products!!! It all comes back to you!

If you are an artist in the St. Louis or the Metro East Area, we would love to have you in our crafy, artsy, LOUD group!
