New Blog!

So here I am, just created a new blog here on Blogspot! OK, well, its not new---I had one before, but I only used it about 5 times, so I'm making a new one now. I hope to chronicle some of my crafty adventures, and add a few things about me and what's going on in my life. I will also be adding lots of pictures of my work too.


The latest thing that is going on, is that I had an appointment with my adviser today at UNR to change my major. As a Secondary Education major, you pick a concentration, and mine was Art. I started thinking about it more, and have a friend that's a music major, who has been struggling to find a job---I didn't want to go to school for all of this time, and not be able to find a job. So I decided to change it from Art to English--English was already my minor. My adviser asked if I wanted to add ESL as an endorsement, and I quickly agreed. So that means I will be able find a job teaching English and teaching English to those that don't know English. I made Art my minor, and if I finish that, I can add that as a class I can teach, but I'll just work on the English and ESL for now. I enjoy reading, but I like writing even better, so English will be fun for me to teach---but not as fun as art.....I am scheduled to graduate in Spring of 2013!! Esh......soooo far away!

I have also decided to stop selling jewelry on Etsy--there are sooo many people selling it, my pieces are just lost! I wanted to sell ACEOs---which means Artist Cards, Editions and Originals---basically, they are ATCs for sale. I want to have a mix of hand-drawn, collage/mixed media, and fabric cards for sale. I also want to offer paper packs, since I have some great old books that are perfect for use by other artists. I will be dropping my Artfire account, since they will no longer be offering their free account, and I'm not willing to pay for an account where I won't be selling a lot of stuff.
