Updates

All the marketing advice I read says to take advantage of social networking so here are the two I've joined up with semi-recently.

I originally joined Facebook a while back so I could spy on Simon. What? He knows it. I told him I joined and he asked if I joined so I could spy on him and I said yes. He gave me a tour of his page then - and the other night he actually "friended" me.

I just joined Twitter this past weekend. I wasn't even sure what it was but I'd been hearing about it so I checked it out. It's totally addictive. It's such a sign of the times because you update it with only 140 characters, or something. At a glance, you can read your "followers" updates. We're such a short attention span nation - count me in!

I updated my 2008 craft show schedule a week or two ago. My participation in most of those have not been confirmed yet but I'm feeling confident.

This morning I updated the front page of Pine Tree Designs. I always have grandiose plans of updating that weekly and fall far short of that goal.


I absolutely love this macro shot of the framed piece I call Melon. Besides using it on the front page of the PTD website, I'm using it in my email sig and as my avatar in Etsy. I wish I thought of this long ago. It perfectly exemplifies my work. Hopefully people will click and want to see more.

Edited to add this image. Click on it to see it a bit more clearly, just to give you an idea.

seems to me when I went to your facebook page I was going to have to join or something.

Bonnie & Mom - I added a screenshot of my Facebook page so you can (maybe) get a rough idea. Sorry it's so small, even when you click on it within the entry.

I added you as a friend on facebook. I really enjoy it. Want to play scrabble on facebook with me sometime? It's fun!

I also enjoy twitter and I follow two other bloggers (Jane and Nance) and now you! I get my updates through my cellphone. I was afraid of texting until a few months ago, but now I love it! :)

Your macro shot is really pretty. Please don't take this the wrong way, but does it matter that a couple of the threads are crossed on the outer ring? Maybe it's just too ocd of me, but my eyes are drawn to it right away because the rest of the piece is so perfect.

Know what, Ann? I didn't notice that! What I did notice is that in other shots of this the white threads creep under the black outline thread and really bugged me. Looks like I cropped that out of this shot. I was so focused on that, I didn't look at the white threads. I would say that it's fine this way, it assures people it's handmade. But, um, no, now it must be fixed.

I obviously always try to do a perfect job but now I'll have to remember that each piece I create could end up in a macro shot!

Thanks! I always appreciate any observations and advice!

So happy you took my comment in the spirit in which I intended it. :-) Sorry to give you another task though... it sounds like you have a lot on your plate right now!
