I love the kippahs! I'm not very religious anymore, but I think they're wonderful! {:-D
Linda, I see you have 2 puurrfect helpers! Ugh, how awful when beads scatter everywhere!
I agree with you regarding your favorite things about etsy. I'm glad you're on our team!
I love your helpers Linda! I have a couple of those too! :) I agree with you on the best things of Etsy!
You are so lucky to have your little helpers! And I think it is great that you add a spiritual aspect to your shop.

Yikes on all those beads! It looks like a tornado went through my room :)
Love that first bracelet/earring set!
Hi Linda! Lovely work- if only we could all use time more efficiently!
The kippot are beautiful! I can see why people custom order them. The helper photo cracked me up. I know that several of us in this group could share similar photos.
I'll bet your helpers had fun with the spilled beads!
Your jewelry is lovely!
I think your photos are pretty darn good, but I know we all try to make them more interesting and eye-catching all the time. Best wishes on meeting your goals!
Your jewerly is beautiful! I love your little helper there. It seems like there are a lot of feline helpers among us.
Love your Goals "D" about using your time more wisely. I'm striving for that same thing myself!
Happy sales!!!
