Hi Amy! Love your pieces. I too agree that it can be tricky figuring out how to make sales. I continue to be surprised by what actually sells- it's never what I think will!!!

Good luck with the publishing. It's so exciting when you are! Your jewelry is beautiful. You know how to put what beads with what. And it all works so well. Love the workspace. How fun to have all those boxes full of lots of colorful beads!
