Good Morning, and thank you for visiting my PassnItOn Blog. Hope this finds everyone doing well, and having a super day.
I have a mess on my table with pieces of glass to glue together, sorting through pieces, setting pieces together and then deciding do not like it, or altering them, and so on. I have different little mini bouquets of flowers sitting around trying to decide finishing touch for another piece, and babysat grandbaby yesterday.....so I was delayed from what I started to do:) Looking at it today, and still unsure of a few things.
Think gonna leave house for a bit, get some errands done, clear the head a bit, and hopefully when I come back I will see a picture of things to accomplish with some of these pieces here.
Don't forget to visit PassnItOn Artfire Shop to see some of the pieces I have done, and watch for more to come....once I get them completed. Also, to see my links, pictures, and notes in one place feel free to visit a site I am working with PassnItOn. I am thinking I might like this better for a website than the google one I have been working with. Much easier to navigate, and deal with. Still a working progress, but really like the ease of things with this place. Check it out, and see what you think.
Here is wishing all of you a Happy Hump Day! Wishing you luck with all you do being productive, and with those who sell too. Thanks for visiting PassnItOn, and hope to see you here again soon!:)
Hello, and Welcome to PassnItOn! I have been included with another collection on Artfire called Elegance. Very nice items shown, and wanted to share this so all of you could also view it too. Elegance Collection Nice collection, and please visit this to see.
Instead of crafting this weekend, so far anyway, I have been thrifting for more pieces to repurpose, and offer for all to see and buy. I have found some really neat glass pieces, and have been gently washing all of them clean, and drying them, and now playing with them to see what will work together between what I have bought, and what is already here. The weather was nice, and I enjoyed the time of thrifting to find pieces.
Still working on my website for me, and having an issue with how the page is arranged, and how to fix it. I am not computer literate, but hope to soon have it worked out. Till then you can visit my weebly site at PassnItOn. I pretty much have this put together, and am also adding my rapid cart from Artfire there too.
Tomorrow while hubby watching his races, I hope to be gluing, and putting things together. Weather sounds like more snow, so good for me to stay home to work on crafts.
Thanks for visiting with me, and please visit anytime. Any questions, please ask. Also, if you wish to share something I am glad to hear from you. Have a great evening everyone.
Hello everyone, and Welcome to PassnItOn! Glad to have you here, and glad to be able to share with you what I have been working on the past few days, and at times pulling my hair a little bit too.
Yes, I do have a project I am working on to finish for the store, and got some other creative ideas I am working with too. I am finishing up making a cloche right now. I have found a glass bowl that I am adding my own cloche handle to it by decorating it with some simple lace, and flowers. I have a plate that it nicely sits into making this a cloche with the dish too. Pieces are all in great shape, and look almost new too. Hope to have that done next couple of days to show all of you:)
Ok, what I have been steadily working on are my blogs, but mostly websites for this store, and for the other store I have had for much longer than this. Yesterday I was working on my website for this venue when my grand daughter got on my lap, and bumped the keyboard, and not sure what happened from there. Thought I had the issue fixed last night, and finally walked away from it, but found earlier this afternoon was not fully fixed. So, I have removed everything, and trying to get back to the beginning to start it all over again. Hopefully I can fix it as it was looking so good too.
I have decided I sell with different venues, some market places I am signed with, but do not do much with them anymore. It's hard to find a place to call home that is agreeable for what I do, what I sell, and to work with what my needs are. So, a long time ago I had read a blog about a woman, and her husband who had moved from their long time home in CA to Ohio I think it was. They moved their business there, and it was doing well. But, like all of us we are always looking for more ways to get our names out there, show our business, and do it as cost efficiently as possible too. Let's face it, things cost to do. Having your own website can cost with hosting, domains, shopping carts, if you pay someone to design it, and so on.
Anyway, this woman had proposed the idea of how you could bring yourself out by having a blog, and a website, and do it almost for little to nothing cost. She felt it could still work, and was going to work on it to show it could too. The last I knew of she was showing progress with her ideas, and I was happy for her. The idea she had of this had always stuck with me. So, you research, read, see what others are reporting, work on your own venues in between all of this, and keep trying to put it together.
Well, as of today I think I seen a light that is starting to make sense, and is actually coming together for me. So far, biggest cost has been having my domains with GoDaddy. I have a .com for PassnItOn which leads to my blog here, and I also have a .com for my other name of LilacsNDreams which also leads to my blog. I got a special that I took for 2 years with LilacsNDreams, since PassnItOn is new I have taken a domain for 1 year here, and when I visited GoDaddy today with a goal in mind I got my .net for LilacsNDreams at $9.99 for the year. I haven't even spent $50 yet, and have been setting up websites with google sites, weebly, and using my blogs. What a deal, huh?
What I have decided to do is keep everything pretty much between 2-3 sites for everyone to follow. Much easier to remember, easier to find, and with all the sites I am working on there will always be clickable links that take you to the market places you would like to visit where I am selling, and to also visit other sellers too. And, I will also have the links for both of my store names between the sites too. So, if I ever decide to move from a market place, slow down with sales at one and focus with another venue, instead of trying to keep up with where I move to it, and follow me to the the venue, it will be noted between my blogs, and websites.
So, I like to think I will only be a "click away", and hoping it will be more convenient for the customers, friends, those who follow me, and etc. Right now for this store name I have this blog, a website I am working with and reconstructing after yesterday, but do have another website I have found that I rather like too which is at weebly, and is coming along nicely too. So, if you feel the need to visit one of the websites, or my blog all the info will be noted with those places. With my blog here you will see on the right side bar clickable links to these places. With these places you will find links, pictures, and which venue the pictures are for that the item is listed with. So, instead of roaming through many different stores looking, you can visit my blog, or websites to get your ideas before visiting me, and don't forget all the other wonderful sellers that have their wonderful listings too.
I do apologize if this sounds a bit confusing. I am excited, and after working on things for a while, not being computer technie, and trying to understand things when I seen a light, and felt it coming together I got excited:) I hope I can do what I am planning, and have been planning. It all takes time, a lot of work, a lot of devotion, and I am fortunate to be able to be home to do all of this. Please bear with me, and I will keep you updated as things move along here. Thank you for your patience, understanding, following me, and visiting with me. Thanks for visiting, and drop by anytime to see what is happening next. Always welcome to ask questions, leave a comment, share, etc.
