Packing Orders and Time for Organizing

After a big sale, a lot of time is allotted to packing orders... I print out final invoices, layout all of the items and check them off from the list while i pack them...

Luckily, yesterday I have completed packing all orders. Most of them have already been sent and I am now just waiting for 2 more payments before I send off the last 2 packages to their respective locations. Now moving on to make next task...

I have tons of stocks sprawled out that are left over from the sale...

 I'm gonna have to arrange them and pack them

And then I have re-stock them into the right albums online so that I can get them sold if somebody wants to buy them...a lot of them will still be on clearance.

This has been keeping me happily busy. But, on Monday, I need to start my new secret task that I need to get going but have not started. More about that to come....

A Successful Sale

I've been neglecting my blog lately but with good reason...I have been soo busy working on a sale at my online shop just this past week. First I had to get all my stocks in order, post the items in separate albums and on the 8th started the sale. It just recently ended on the 15th and now I am starting to pack the items for shipping because the payments are slowly rolling in and I want to get the shipments out as soon as i can...

It was a nice sale with lots of cabochons and beads...

Settings and charms were on sale up to 25% off...

Pretty flower cabochons...

and wonderfully delicious colors of these lucite florals...

And for the first time, I was able to offer some of my polished stones from my stash....

This was a hard thing for me to do as I LOVE MY POLISHED STONES...but they've been hoarded way too long and they need to be part of someone's creations. So i chose a few and practically gave them away at very low prices!!! Luckily i still have more to hoard for myself....

I actually was looking at one of my favorite blogs (La Bella Joya) and got inspired again by her wonderful creations...I've been wanting to create some bead embroidery with my stash of polished stones but never got around to it....i mean just take a look at her gorgeous necklaces....like these...

Creation by Marcie of La Bella Joya

Oh so gorgeous...how i dream that one day i will have the time and the patience to make something like this! I am amazed at her work.

Anyways, I'm quite happy about the sale because I've made enough for my upcoming "business" trip and I'm hoping to be able to buy some new items for the shop. I've got to get this sale completed so i can move on to my other points on my to do list...also some secret..new products to be added to the shop... more to come!!

Hope everyone has a great week ahead!!
