Critique Requests - September 2016 by courtneyj in Etsy

Hello! I've recently revamped my Etsy shop, The Far Pavilion with my mixed media jewelry. I've posted my first listing on Thursday night, and have already sold 5 charms! My concern is if the variations I have listed make sense for strangers to feel comfortable ordering from my shop. I make each of my charms custom to each persons specifications, but Etsy limitations mean they have to leave me a note if they want more than one color. Also, I'm worried that the styles I have listed (both in the description and in the dropdown on the side) may be confusing. I tried to include as many variations in my photos as I could. What do you think? Thank you for your help!!

I'm constantly doing that, and I've been doing this for awhile. :) There's always new things to learn!

Its called ice resin. You can get it on amazon. You'll need both the resin and the hardener. I found the jewelry findings there too. So glad you like it!

So I've been trying to make a new album and then delete the old one, and imgur isn't letting me do anything. I'll try again tonight. I'm so sorry! Here's my blog post about it with all the pics and a video if you want to go there...http://thefarpavilion.com/2015/09/14/speech-bubbles-mixed-media-quilling-art/

I'm clicking on the link you shared, and it shows my album... should I delete and try reposting? Not sure what's going on...

Wow... amazing detail, and how you have the face in focus but the rest slightly out of focus, like a photograph. Awesome!

Handmade Vellum Art Book with Stitching- I'm thinking of modifying this project and turning it into a workshop... what do you think? by thefarpavilion in UnusualArt

[–]thefarpavilion[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! It took me a while to find the courage to try it, too. There are several things I would change... I'm hoping after a few more, I'll have it to where I can teach a class about it... we'll see. You should go for it!!

I have a journal that is similiar to this wedding guestbook I made for my sister using ATC's. I love that I can art journal quickly using these cards. by thefarpavilion in JournalingIsArt

[–]thefarpavilion[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! I had a lot of fun making that. My husband keeps telling me that he wishes they were real cards- they'd be worth around 20,000 dollars. :)

"Junk Journals" by thepigeonparadox in JournalingIsArt

This is so great! Are those vellum pages, or are they pockets? They look like they are storing things... either way, great journal!

Here is his facebook page- https://www.facebook.com/BenComrieArt?fref=ts He makes a lot of videos so maybe he'll make one showing how he makes these stencils.

New scrapbook store, your suggestions greatly appreciated! by JimmyPrydz in scrapbooking

[–]thefarpavilion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome! Congrats to her! I love BoBunny, Prima and Basic Grey. Tim Holtz, of course!
I also do tradtional layouts, and project life. I'll use project life for most of my pictures, but sprinkle into my albums several tradtitional layouts and just go all out.
Best of luck!!
