Beaded ID Lanyards for the Office

Do you wear a lanyard to work?  Are you required to wear your id badge each and every day the full time you are at work?  Do you ever get tired of wearing it?

I wear an id badge to work everyday, and although I completely understand the need for it, I get a bit tired of wearing one everyday.  Perhaps that is because I don't wear a uniform.  I like to add jewelry to my outfits and find it hard to wear a nice necklace and an id badge.

As many of you know I have been designing, making, and selling beaded id badge lanyards for over a year.  I have enjoyed doing this and selling them to lots of people. I have made them in many different colors.  I have lanyards made with resin flower beads, polymer clay beads, Czech glass beads, and semi-precious stones.  Sometimes I make them with chain and colorful beads at places along the chain.

However, what about the need for a simple easy to wear lanyard that goes with anything, and allows the wearer to add a beautiful necklace along with the lanyard?  You want the lanyard to be elegant, simple, and timeless, but not the center of attention.  In response to my own desire for this, and hopefully to my customers, I am developing a new line of "Simple" lanyards.  I just posted the first two of those, and more will follow.

I will continue to create colorful fun lanyards, but now you can purchase a basic but beautiful lanyard to wear when you dress for work without giving much thought to how it coordinates with you choice of clothing that day.  I would love to know if you like these first two, and if you have ideas for what you would like to see in the future.  

How about simple id badge reels?  Are you looking for that also?

Orange Energy - Return from the Blogless

I have been away from this blog for far too long.  It's a beautiful Sunday morning over a long weekend, and I am ready to share again on this blog.

Orange is an exciting, energizing, refreshing color. Madlena Gocheva created this beautiful Etsy treasury to wake us up on this Sunday morning.  She features all kinds of lovely orange items from a fine art painting of orange poppies that just glow to a baby headband with a lovely orange flower.  And she was so kind to include my orange lucite flower ring.  Take a look at this fine collection below.

Shop Marketing Helper - Do You Use This?

I am calling out to everyone who sells their products online to see how many of you have tried this new application, and what you think of it.

I have mixed feelings. I have tried it for posting my items on Facebook, Twitter and my blog. It is great for scheduling these things ahead of time.

One drawback I see is that once I post something on my calendar in this application, I can see what item I posted but I can't see what social media I selected for the posting. Then I have to look for it in my social media sites if I want to know that.

That information is important to me because I don't want to post the same kind of thing too many times in a row on the same site. For example, if I post one of my Etsy listings on Facebook, my next post on Facebook should be an announcement or something different from promoting my item from Etsy.

I would really like to know what experiences others have had with Shop Marketing Helper. Are you tracking views on your pages directly to this application?

Apple Red Jade Silver Earrings

These apple red earrings make me think of crunchy apples. These earrings were created from 10 mm red jade beads topped with a Czech glass green leave. Dangling from this is a silver apple. The silver apple is the same on the front and the back.



Length of earrings beneath earwire is 1� (2.5 cm).

Antiqued Brass Flower Cuff Bracelet Peach Rose Cabochon -

I think these filigree cuff bracelets are so romantic, and they invite decorating them with lucite flowers. I selected this lovely peach rose to go with the antiqued brass tone. This is a beautiful rose cabochon that is centered on the filigree bracelet.



The cuff is adjustable to most wrists.
