Hey all, I know it's been a while since I've posted anything new, but money is tight so I've had to cut back on wrapping. I was sitting at an art fair this past Saturday and sold _nothing_ I was really disappointed, I even had cute adjustable rings out for like $5-$10. Anyway enough whining. This is a beautiful piece of Rose Quartz that I got in a wraps for cabs trade with Christopher. I wrapped it in the last of my square Argentium Sterling Silver and I think it turned out pretty good. What do you all think? Thanks again for trading with me Christopher! Krista

I had the same problem this weekend Krista. I came to the realization that my display is good, the product is good, I'm just a lousy salesman! Time for me to brush up on sales 101.

Nice one Krista. If I remember right, that cab has an "eye" asterism in it.

Beautiful work! I've never really been a huge fan of rose quartz either but that one is awesome. I've never seen it with that much clarity.

Thank you everyone! I tried to make it look innocent, since the only thing I could think of while looking at the stone was that it was a baby girl pink lol. Don, maybe that's my problem! I really am not that great at sales, but I also don't think I have the right audience here in Nebraska, I need to be in Denver or out on the East Coast where there's a bit more money in people's pockets. Pretty much I'm down to almost no wire and I'm not going to order anymore until I sell some stuff, I have over 70 pieces stock now, kinda crazy. I generally keep my stock around 40-50 Thank you all for the compliments! Krista

That turned out great. I love it. I know what you mean about sales and being a salesperson. I am not one either and it definitely shows. I don't know how many pieces I have in stock but don't think I want to count since I have only sold one in the last two months. Hang in there Krista.
