Quick Update #4: Some Sales & Zazzle Items

Happy!
I have sold a couple of my cats drawings that I had exposed at my workplsce. :)
This week I have read some posts by fellow art bloggers dealing with the new Etsy policy. It looks like they are no more considered a "just-handmade" company...
So I'm perusing the web to find a new suitable website where I can sell my artworks.
Any suggestions? Experiences?

Here are the two "cats on a wall" drawings that I sold.


And these are are a couple chakra-inspired pieces.

I have also opened a SPOONFLOWER SHOP!
There's only one design at the moment, but I will add something new soon.
With Spoonflower you can create your fabrics, wallpapers and giftwrap papers! 
I cannot wait for my fabric sample to arrive! :))

Quick Update #3: Be Careful What you Ask for...

It looks like that the old saying "Be careful what you ask for, because you could get it" works...
This year I have been asking for changes, and changes I'm getting, althought not the way I thought.
I laugh because, otherwise, I would walk around the house crying like a baby.
My request for changes for the better had the following results:
- hubby lost his job
- lots of $$$ flying away for a new exhaust pipe for our building
- reduction of my working hours: 6 to 4, with consequent loss of $$$ each month
- probable redundancy payment with consequent further loss of $$$ each month.

I must have made some mistakes when asking... :)

On the other hand, I'm happy because I sold some of my drawings. It's not much, but I'm glad anyway. 
Now I have to put them on Etsy and make some promotion. :)
And I'm also glad the injection I had last month is working. It means less pain and the possibility of having surgery next year! YAY!

And on we go with some new pieces!
They will be soon available in my SOCIETY6 SHOP and ZAZZLE SHOP (here you can also find notebooks and mugs).


That's all for today.
Have a great week!!

Quick Update #2: Society6 & a Handmade Journal

This month is going to be the Quick Updates Month. Eheheh!!
In September I found out that my endometriosis has sufaced again, and my doctor had me an injection that will prepare me for surgery (I hope) in January/February.
This injection has many side effects and I am suffering almost all of them.
So, until december I will have to keep calm, come back from work and lay down on my couch and make some art. I'm feeling like a one hundred years old. :)

But let's talk about art now!
This is what I've been up lately.
I have opened a SOCIETY6 SHOP! There you can find cards, ihpone covers, tote bags, pillows...
I really like the tote bags and the pillows. They could be nice Yule presents. :)


And, with the same style, I made a little journal for a friend.


I'll try to post something more during the weekend!
Byeee!!
