Well, it's been a while! Both Sigrid and I have been reluctant to pick up where we left on our blog. It's been a busy, and fun period of time since the last time any of us blogged.
We almost sold out completely at the "Designernes eget julemarked" ("Designers Christmas Market") here in Oslo. Unfortunately I was unable to contribute there (had to maintain my day job), but Sigrid was there pushing our jewelry out to the Norwegian public, whom until now have been spared a little.
Our Etsy shop has also been well visited in the Christmas rush, and we've almost made friends with the emploees at the local post offices.
I find that it's always hard in the beginning to sell something I've created. Not so much because I grow attached to the things, but more because I'm surprized when people want to buy my creations. We have both gotten better at this though. When things are a bit slow in our Etsy shop we tend to bring a box of jewelry to our day jobs, and boldly put them on a convenient spot where everybody can see it. It always creates a buzz! Or we make sure to always carry a little bit of the jewelry in our bags, so that when people ask "so what kind of jewelry do you make?" we can pull a "Funny you should ask.." and like a rabbit out of the magicians hat: bring out the bling from our bags!
All in all this has been a very good year for Everyday Glory, -and us, and we can't wait to take new pictures of our new jewelry designs as soon as daylight and time allowes it.
So, for now, a merry Christmas to all of you! And thanks for all the good support and cheering along the way!
Sigrid & Anja
