Post-Market Recap

During a long, warm day at the season opener of the Tampa Downtown Market I managed to take WAY too many photos of my booth. Enjoy :)

Jewelry Season 2013

Hi again!
It's that time again - Fall means craft shows and market days for me and Jessalynne Jewelry! I just spent two days repackaging all my earrings for a cleaner display. Most of tonight was spent on the floor of my office sorting colors and stuffing baggies. What a crazy Friday! I tend to overdo things and I'm sure I've over-thought my table arrangement and earrings cards and how I'll stamp each paper shopping bag with a super cute 'J' but I really do love this process. Nothing is more fun to me than organizing, planning and re-arranging displays, spreadsheets, events, etc. Some might call it a problem, I just think it's a very extensive hobby. Or crazy, whatever.
I also splurged on a new camera (a wedding present to myself yey) so here are some quick shots while I'm still learning how this thing even works!
Also don't forget to visit me at the Tampa Downtown Market this Sunday from 10a-4p right across the street from Curtis Hixon Park! Most of these pieces will hopefully make it onto Etsy too - eventually.

Swarovski Rhinestone Stud Earrings

I just want to start off by saying that Swarovski rhinestones are possibly the most beautiful object on Earth. I don't believe I am exaggerating one bit. When I opened the little pouch of glittery awesomeness I was not ready for the jaw-dropping brilliance of each of these little gems! As you know, I've been trying out a couple new ways to incorporate stud earrings into my inventory and as I was browsing for more round crystals I stumbled across the rhinestone section on my favorite bead website. I like to purchase my beads in mixes of colors, that way I get a good variety of products without having to buy a huge quantity. Unfortunately my store didn't sell the rhinestones that way so I had to go looking for them. I eventually found exactly what I was looking for (non-heat set flat backs) and then starting hunting all over Etsy for the perfect backdrop to my sparkly little angels.  These discs are special. They aren't just plain old metal stamping blanks, they are stainless steal stamping blanks. The stainless steel is basically a flawless mirror that reflect almost as much light as the rhinestones. How could I not put them together to make one Super Stud?!

They turned out even more brilliant that I had hoped for and have been selling like hotcakes! If you want to get your hands on some, come see Jessalynne at the Tampa Downtown Market or wait patiently until I have a free few minutes to list them on the Jessalynne shop.
