A Mini Rant

Sellers--beware!

I know there are many of you out there that rely on consigning your goods and, of course, the old net 30. I was once one. Unfortunately I have found myself ripped off by a certain store and it is so disheartening. I hate that there are people out there who are so dishonest.

Thankfully, there are lawyers and courts out there and it seems I will be heading to one in a couple of weeks. And I will be recovering my court costs when I win!

I was lucky enough to have documented everything, and I suggest you do the same with any retailer you are doing business with. I have every piece of correspondence there is and I am told this will win my case. I have even been in contact with two others that have had the same issues with this particular store.

Make sure you save everything, even things that do not seem relevant. I hope you will never find yourself in this situation, but always be prepared.

That being said, I have had a wonderful consignment experience with another store on the west coast and I could not be happier with them. They are absolutely honest, lovely ladies, but because of the one bad apple, I would never enter in to anything similar ever again.

Working hard or hardly working?

I am so excited! I have decided to accept a consignment opportunity in beautiful San Francisco at a fantastically fun store. They would like to see at least 12 pieces soon so I have been hard at work!

I am also trying to create some new designs, which is slowing me down because I stop and play with them.

I have some pictured above that I am working with. They are unpolished and unfinished so don't judge! How do you like the paper towel back drop and terrible lighting? Hey, that is what you get in these parts before 8 AM!

Have a wonderful Thursday!
