Go Ahead, Treat Yourself to Handmade! - Wonderful Handmade Wednesday on Indiemade

Posted August 16, 2016

 

Summer is slowing drawing to an end and, for many children, school has already started.  Summer has probably been a whirlwind of activities, traveling, family outings, cook outs and shopping for school.  With all that in mind, it’s time for YOU to treat YOURSELF to something handmade from the heart.  Browsing through the shops of Indiemade artist friends, I found a wide range of items.  Anyone is guaranteed to brighten up your day or at least pique your interest to see what other handmade wonders the artists have in their studios.  If you see something you particularly like, please click on the live link below the photo for more information, photos and the price.  Go ahead!  Enjoy the selections!

Peacefully Pink - Wonderful Handmade Wednesday on Indiemade

Posted June 21, 2016

 

Even though the color pink is not a favorite color, I have come to respect it.  That came about when I read an article stating that a person can sell more at handmade art shows if they wear a pastel pink colored shirt.  In color psychology, light pink is a positive color inspiring warm, comforting thoughts and is a sign of peace and hope.  According to the article, when you wore pink, people found you more thoughtful and insightful and you were more trusted.  The author, who sold at shows, swore by wearing pink and said her sales definitely increased once she made the change.

Artisan Handmade Beauties from the Cross Partners in Promotion Group

Posted June 2, 2016

The Cross Partners in Promotion (CPP) group is a handmade family of diverse artists.  Most of us have known each other online for years.  When it came time for most to move to a new venue (such as Indiemade, Etsy, On Fire for Handmade, Shopify, their own web site, etc.) we didn't want to loose track of each other.  So the CPP group was formed a little over a year ago, headed up by Nancy Tonelli, and is still going strong.  We share links to our own items and promote the shared items of other members.  Interesting articles, link ups, funny happenings in life and (unfortunately) sad happenings, as well, are also shared.  YAY for family!!!

The Cross Partners in Promotion group gathered almost a year ago (has it been almost a year already?) on G+ to promote each others handmade items.  And what a great group it is with a HUGE amount of talent.  I want to share that talent with you by sharing one item from each person who was active this week in sharing and/or promoting.  Below are the items chosen, listed in a scientific order achieved from drawing numbers randomly from a small bowl (:
