Laptop in the Shop!

My DD broke the screen on my laptop a while back and I have not blogged since then.  Well, the repairs are taking FOR-EVER, so I pulled out my old laptop with the missing backspace key, the duct tape over the power cord and the iffy left-click button.

The occasion?  I finally opened an Etsy shop so that you can buy pieces that I have made.  Yay!  Why have these lovelies been hanging in a closet or sitting in a box all this time???  People have asked me...are you selling?  Uh, well, I should...I guess.  And now I am!

It took me a couple of years to decide to do this.  I'm not sure what my big hesitation was, but I know how the idea finally won me over.  While I was taking Deryn Mentock's class, "Alchemy of Objects," there were quite a few items that I could not find locally.  We were working with "found objects" like coin purses and chandelier crystals.  My problem was that I could not FIND my found objects.  I was really making an effort, too, haunting the local antique malls.  So, my new definition of a found object is now, "anything I purchase on Etsy after midnight."  Etsy has been very good to me as a customer, so I'm anxious to see how I rate as a vendor.

Come visit =)  Come buy =)  http://www.etsy.com/shop/enolafrost
