I have decided not to close my Etsy shop just yet. I have received a ton of convos with sad buyers. Soooo I will keep it open thru Christmas and see how it goes. If I’m still not getting anything I’m closing it. At least for now. I might reopen later on. I will still have my account though b/c I am a buyer too.

New Etsy Shop!

I will be opening a new Etsy shop that is specifically for my digital retouching. I have alot of people that want me to retouch their photos for them and I’ve been doing it for free. But I am getting overwhelmed. It’s taking all of my free time so I’m going to start charging. Also I’ve gotten better at it so more and more people are interested.

Here are some examples that will be in the new shop:

These photos are just pics of my friend and I. If you would like to be an example model I would love to use your photo! Just email me at Jennfunique@yahoo.com.

I have other photos I have done for people but they are a little racy so I’m not putting them up here.

I was in the Etsy chat rooms last nite (like I am every night if you would like to chat with me!) and I got this really great tip from Dennis Anderson. He said after you resize and edit your photos in a photo shop program you should go into Windows Live Photo Gallery and adjust the lighting on the photos. If you don’t have Windows Live Photo Gallery here is the link, it’s free, http://get.live.com/photogallery/overview. You would not believe the difference it makes in your pictures!!

I stayed up into the wee hours of the morning making these earrings. I think they turned out ok. I’m getting better at it. I think the more you wrap that wire the more patient you get with it. I like instant grativication so this is a big step for me lol.
