Putting jewelry on my website

I have been putting jewelry on my website www.designsbycaroline.com. I didn't like some of the photographs that I had taken so down into the basement to my mini studio I went. I took about 10 photo's of one necklace and then checked them on the computer to see exactly what set up would work the best.

Once I got that done I was off and running.... Sort of... Smile.

Honey my cat decided that she wanted to spend some time with me so she sat on my shoulders while I carefully walked to the table and got a necklace and put it on the bust and took the photograph. I only heard a few complaints from her if I leaned too far forward. It is a good thing that she is small and light!

I hope to put at least 1 new item each day on the website so check back frequently. Necklaces are my main focus but then rings, bracelets, brooches & fobs are all coming up...

Mt Clemens Art Fair

Well the Art Fair is done and I had a wonderful time. It was a ton of work but I enjoyed visiting with people and watching people walk by. This is the first time I have used my tent so this is what it looked like - Jeanne helped me all three days and we had a great time joking back and forth. This is one of her in the booth laughing at me. I am so glad I was behind the camera! We had a lady selling hand woven fabric on our left and on our right there was a wonderful couple that sell granite lazy susan's.  I will be back next year (Lord willing) if they let me back in.

Mt Clemens Art Fair

This year I have been accepted into the Mt Clemens Michigan Art Fair. I am currently running around like crazy trying to get ready. It is this weekend and as usual I am only half ready.

This is the first year that I am doing an outside event so I have been trying to make sure I have everything I need.

We will see just what I forget LOL!  I will make sure to add those things to my check list for the next time.

Working on websites

Working on my website is fun but time consuming. Each photo I take and place on the website is like placing a cherished item up for others to see, enjoy and maybe to buy. The photographs never does justice to the piece but I do my best when I take the photo's.  I bring them into PhotoShop and "clean them up" and save them in a size that works best within the parameters of the website. I want large photo's so people can really see what I have crafted but I can't do that. So..... I go as big as possible. :o)

If I have time over the weekend I will put more up on www.designsbycaroline.com but with the grandkids I may be luckey just to turn the computer on! Zackary is 6 months and so very close to crawling and Billy at 11 is such a big help that I have a grand time playing with them.

One of these days....

I have a grandson and I can't keep up!

Zack is such a joy but when it comes to doing anything I am a lost cause.

Here is a photograph of the finished pendant that I promised o so long ago...
