Thursday Blog Hop Link Party #19

Happy Thursday! I don't know about you but I am SERIOUSLY looking forward to the weekend as this week has been a tough one. I have had to pick and choose which posts to put up this week which is why yesterdays post didnt happen and like for the last few weeks in a row, I won't be including a Friday Finds interview. I want to continue with that feature but it's something where I would like to fit in a day where I can talk about handmade products more so I may expand Friday Finds to include product reviews, and have monthly or bi-weekly interviews instead. I'll be working it out this weekend when I get a moment. I also want to involve my photography more in posts so thats something on the cards, which I think will mean a big blog revamp, although I will retain what is here... I'm not going to remove features entirely :)

Anyway... let's hop! Have a great week!

ADD YOUR BLOG TO MY LONG WEEKEND BLOG HOP!
Thursday - Sunday



Remember to add your blog to the "linky" and not just in the comments (although comments are appreciated)! This hop is growing by the week so thanks to those of you who have grabbed my blog hop button or the ones that have put the linky code on their own pages! The more you all share this linky, the more opportunities people have to find and follow your blogs! Lets keep this up! I try to follow everyone that lists so to maximise everyone's chance of gaining followers try and follow as many as you can give time for :)

Grab This Button!

6. Follow at least 2 or 3 others on the list and send them a blog comment to let them know! That way they can follow you back also :)

If I feel your entry isn't family friendly (ie: adult related, gambling or something else distasteful or spammy) I will remove your link.

So submit your blog into the linky tool by clicking on the submit text and you're on your way :) This tool will expire on Sunday night and is accessible using the top navigation of my blog! Happy hopping!

Jewelry by Jaynemarie

Tuesday - BESTeam Mosaic
weekly shoutout to the dedicated workers that like to help other handmade artists...

Jaynemarie on Etsy... In my Etsy journey I have found that I have experienced both extremeties of scenarios that can occur with running two very different shops. One is very busy and the other is rather quiet. Over the years I understand now that being able to establish my mark in any of the busy handmade catagories, I really need to go that extra mile to show that what I have is unique and worthy. A huge catagory on Etsy is the Jewelry catagory and it is SO hard for sellers to break themselves into selling without having that little bit of oomf to get them started. I started myself down that road and it wasn't long before I moved onto what I can do better. I really do love looking at the jewelry sellers make on Etsy for the fact that despite seeing 100's of necklaces, earrings, rings galore, if you look hard enough you can see true heart and soul emerging from some pieces, and in that truely beautiful craftsmanship. My favourite Jewelers have to be the ones that work metal themselves or use gemstones as most of the time I find that is where my jaw drops and I fall in love! Jaynemarie jewelry is a seller I feel has a LOT to give through her work, and through reading her profile I am warmed by the life long passion she has had to build on her creative niche, going all the way back to when she began on her barbie dolls! She has since worked hard on gaining the necessary experience to create in the way she is able to today and I just love her work and the fact that her experience in her craft has been a journey through the years. Her jewelry is perfect for special occassions so if you are looking for something very special, I recommend looking through her store :)

For those of you with a passion for handmade, and you have a blog that is in need of a consistant weekly post to drive your traffic and help fellow artisans by doing the same. Come and join the BESTeam!
