Yesterday I took my jewellerey that i make into a shop and they started selling them , today i got a phone call that 4 items have already sold and I am really over the moon.
Today I have an appointment with my local library who are setting up a craft shop inside the Library, they want to take a look at my jewellery and I am really nervous because I have just done the school run and nearly took a panic, my husband cant walk at the moment so cant do school runs, shopping or anything else.

I have to leave soon and I think I feel so bad because its so important to me, I feel dizzy but must go because I really want to start earning money as a jewellery designer.....2 outlets in 2 days is amazing but am I up to the job ???

Hi Mirry.

Try and stay calm and don't worry, you will be fine. This is a good opportunity for you to sell some of your jewellerey. Just keep telling yourself you can do it and you will be fine. Just take deep breaths and relax. Good luck. Let us all know how it goes mate.

If anyone is up to the job then you most certainly are.:D

Come on hun - you can do this, you deserve the recognition for your lovely things and the creative talent you have, now is the time that your labours are rewarded and this is richly deserved.

I can't remember if you have an e-bay shop yet or not but I would love to look at some of your stuff especially any bits using different crystals.

I am right behind you hun, egging you on and as a fellow craftsperson feel this is the nice bit. Plus don't confuse excitement with anxiety either.

Go get em tiger!!!:D:D:D

Im back ! I had to take my 8 year old daughter with me and she sat looking at the books. The lady took me to a side table and talked for ages about how it all works and how much money they take, as she was talking I was very aware of how I was comming across.
Anyway after I showed her my jewellery she agreed to sell my items , I felt so relieved and told her how nice it is to hopefully earn some money.
I told her how anxious I get and I couldnt belive she told me she has a form of agrophobia but feels at home in the library, then she told me she is going to talk to two other Librarys to see if they will also stock my items :D
I know it sounds mad, Im getting so excited and worried but know its my dream. She is also going to speak to the town center Library.....
sorry to go on but its to much lol.

your support has been fab, thanks x


p.s : I will get my own web site hopefully soon for you to see my items, shame we cant have a web site for free advertising for No more panic sufferers ?

Hey Mirry thats great news.
Its scary isnt it trying to get your work out there.
I think it is harder for us but we win in the end

I paint a lot of pictures and would like to get a gallery interested. Its just getting the confidence to even go to the gallery so well done you on getting out there and doing it :-)

I have been selling a lot of art on ebay and have just got a commission for 8 paintings so like you I am over the moon but also scared too in case I cant do it or get it wrong.

I think it would be a good idea if we had somewhere on this site that we could put links to our sites. I wonder if the moderators would consider a forum just for that. talking about our crafts etc

Well done again
Hugs

Here I am awake at 5pm, with a thousand things to do going round in my head lol.

mary, yes this is the same girl who used to panic answering the phone, getting up from her chair, infact i used to panic about turning my head incase i felt dizzy!

I think doing a hobby is so important for us, it allows us to focus on what we are doing instead of focusing on our problems.
A no more panic shop or a craft forum would be great.
