I want it: Brandywine Fairy Cameo with Key Charm

As I mentioned a few posts ago, I'm a new seller over at 1000 Markets and I've been surfing the site and trying to get the lay of the land. In doing so, I discovered a necklace that I simply MUST have. It is made by SpellboundWings and is a stunning piece of wearable art.



Take a virtual stroll through SpellboundWings's shop and then of course, stop by mine!

Happy Shopping!

My New Toy

I love earrings! And during my last round of craft shows, displaying my earrings was one of my biggest problems. I had a pretty French memo board that my earrings looked great on, but the board kept falling and the earrings kept sliding and frankly, people were afraid to touch them! So, I decided to bite the bullet and buy an earring display stand. I browsed Etsy and there are lots of options. I finally settled on a simple black acrylic display from MoriJewelrySupply.

I was so excited when I got it that I immediately took out all my earrings and put starting arranging them. I love it!



Earrings show the best when they can dangle freely and when the light can hit them their sparkle really show off.



I can't wait for my next craft show to see how this little baby changes up my table's look.

Happy Shopping!

Made By Melissa is now on 1000 Markets!

1000 Markets is a great site that I heard about from some of my fellow EtsyNJ members. Its been around for a few months and I'd been debating setting up shop there. Well, I finally did it! I submitted my site for approval Monday afternoon and by Tuesday morning I was approved and my shop was live!



So, please take a moment to peek at http://www.1000markets.com/shops/madebymelissa and the 1000 Markets site. There is some great stuff there. Right now my shop is a little sparse, but I have lots of things that I made and photographed over the weekend that still need to be listed.

Oh, and have no fear, my shop at Etsy is still alive and kicking and going strong! :-)

Happy Shopping!
