My December PhatFiber Samples
I decided to print Gift Tags as my December PhatFiber sample. They are slightly larger than business cards and printed on heavy quality paper. I also did something I told myself I wouldn't likely do - list all the images individually in my Etsy Shop . What a pain that was! Not to mention it costs you "per item" to do so. If I don't sell any after all that I'll be really cheesed! I think what I find most depressing is that I opened the shop to begin with to sell note cards of my paintings and after nearly 2 years it's the thing I've sold the least of! Talk about a discouragement to paint! LOL! Everybody likes them but nobody wants to buy them! *sigh!*
I've been bitten by the stitch marker bug again so I made these to include in the packages with the cards. They're made with (no surprise) soldered jump rings in a nice small size so they're great for sock knitting or lace knitting. It necessitated going through my bead
stash - always a risky endeavor - so there ended up being quite a few
more in different styles that I made and posted to my shop. I made so
many that I ran out of rings and have a bunch made and stacked waiting
for the rings to come in the mail! Talk about your color therapy! There's just something about those sparkly vibrant colors that lifts my spirits! It's just pleasant tactile twiddling and I think I really needed a bust of creative twiddling! So if you're a sampler box buyer, here's hoping you get some of my stuff! Cheers all!

Don't be discouraged. It really is the economy.
We are not exchanging presents with the family for the second Christmas, but we are still getting together the day after.
