***** ArtFire *****



After 2 years on Etsy, I decided to do a 30-day trial on ArtFire (also in part after I read a blog posting from a fellow jewelry artist).  Check it out and let me know what you think - http://www.artfire.com/users/LindaSearcyJewelryDesigns


So far, I do appreciate the various tools made available to sellers making it easy to migrate from Etsy - the items uploader, the option to showcase artisan work in the Bio section, and the ability to list sales in the Gallery section made on other venues, not just from ArtFire or Etsy.


Here's to a continuing relationship with ArtFire.

Peak Fest, Saturday, May 7, 2011


If you are in the Apex, NC, area this coming Saturday (May 7), be sure to come out and enjoy a gorgeous day at the 31st annual Peak Fest.  There will be lots of activities for the whole family - music, food and amazing creations by local artists (check the list for this year's participating artists)!


I will be at booth spot 48A (see map).  In addition to my new copper and resin jewelry, wire and mixed metal jewelry,  I will have more of my best selling glass tile pendants and earrings created with vintage international postage stamps!
