New Directions?

I've been pondering my jewelry/rosary business and ways to take my designs to the next level for the new year. I had a whole "poor me - my stuff isn't selling" blog post written, but started to make myself sick and deleted it. Let me just say, I am not happy with the status quo!

I love designing jewelry and rosaries...I think my designs are cool and I am happy with my quality of work. I think my current customers are too. That being said, I am struggling with my artistic identity a lot lately. I'm in a rut, so to speak, design-wise...too many wrapped loops and not enough free spirit!

One of my goals for 2010 is to get outside my comfort zone and try new things...be it related to my jewelry/art world or other aspects of my life. Not sure exactly how these new experiences will present themselves, but I took a baby step and chose the 1st activity...

I joined the Bead Soup Party being hosted by Lori Anderson over at Pretty Things. Go on over and read all about it...you too can be a part of the fun...you have until January 10th to sign up! I think this is just the thing to kick off my 2010 and give my creativity and kick in the pants.
