**Nervous!!**

Hello my sweet friends, I hope everyone enjoyed a lovely week and is ready for the weekend! I am so glad I can sleep in tomorrow, well at least until 7am. At least no school for the kiddo!
I've been preparing and designing and creating this past week trying to get ready for the flea market on Sunday. Did I tell you I am an absolute nervous wreck! I have no idea why, it's not like I'm new to selling or anything like that, but this is the first time I'm out there selling something I've created myself. A little scary! I just hope I don't hear anything negative said about my jewelry, I think that's what I'm most nervous about. 
Here's a couple of more designs I just made:



This next one is a re-design, I added some vintage filigree bead caps to some of the pearls to dress it up a bit.



This next one is a re-design as well. I re-designed the pendant and added some little extras to it.




I have a few more designs that I just haven't gotten around to taking photos of yet. 
I had about 42 pieces to sale this weekend, but I have been doing so well on my Etsy site with jewelry sales these past few weeks, that I am now down to 34 pieces.
I can't even begin to tell you all how thankful I have been to those who have purchased my designs! I always hoped people would like my stuff, but I never knew it would be this well received, hopefully it will be well received on Sunday!
Wish me luck and please enjoy your weekend everyone!
Sincerely,
Melinda

  18. I'm guessing as I write this you will be in full selling at your flea market, hope you did well as your jewellery is fab.
    I realised reading your post how most people call their creations (along with me) 'stuff' funny word that.
