New Stuff in the Shop! New Pics! and Networking! (Oh My!!!)

At loooong last I've been able to start making good on my promise to get up some more listings in Mama's Magic Studio. Felt really good to have some focused work time today. (Thank you, S!) It had been far too long.


I listed some new Fraternal Earrings:


A Woman Needs A Man... (nice to have feminist themed stuff in my shop again...) These feature moonstone chips, which were a challenge to photograph. Pics still aren't my strong point. Sigh.



Lunacy (inspired by last night's amazing moon -- sometimes you just gotta howl!) These combine the same moonstone chips with wee blue star beads.



I also took new photos for all the items in my shop to get rid of the multiplicity of too-vivid green backgrounds. I'd started out using green as a background to help the white items show up, particularly Luna.


But once I had several listings with that green, I decided it was getting to be too much. There's eye candy, and then there's eyestrain, and I was getting too close to the latter! I left up the green background for the dragonflies, but now everything else is a shade of white.



Here's a before, for the Knit the Knot Known Fraternal Earrings in Fuschia:



Now it looks like this:


I like it much better. Hope you do too!



In other Mama's Magic Studio news, I've entered the wild world of Social Networking by starting up a Facebook page and profile. Talk about surreal! But in a good way. I've already reconnected with some great folks, and I've only been on the site for a few days. Will be interesting to see where this leads!



The platform is counterintuitive for me, so everything is still very much a work in progress, but I'm learning. If you're on Facebook, take a look... and if you like what you see, become a fan! Right now it's kinda lonely over there!
