Cupcake phone charm and more

みなさん、こんにちは！

"Hello everyone!"

It was a next day working on the forum and finishing the rest of phone charms for Etsy. Some of you might find it weird, but I really cant write about myself o_O I tried to write a bio and welcome page but I just gave up. It just looked funny. I have to do it next week and add all the policies which are just horrible, as I don't want to charge too much and Royal Mail website gives me different prices every time.

The other thing I want to say is the shop owner - let's call her Mrs L. :D, loved my phone charms and suggested to make some fridge magnets and key charms as well. I just need to price them and get back to her in a weeks time. I'm so happy! ^__^'

I also gave two charms to my friends in exchange of feedback about them. I want to know if they will be durable enough to survive in someones bag :D So the only pictures today will be one of those charms. It is similar to the ones I will sell on my Etsy :)

I'm sorry for dark pictures, but I haven't finished this one till late evening :( As you can see
i will add some blink to my "collection". This one is a economical version, the proper cupcakes will have Preciosa crystals added on (they are very similar quality as Swarovski crystals). The pearls I use are good quality Czech glass pearls and the findings are silver plated, so even if it's just a phone charm, it's still really good quality :) I think that customers who like cute accessories like blink too ^___^ And I like to make blink things so everyone will be happy :D

As for a Forum, I have added some new things so if you are interested check the link on the right or at the bottom. And I'm very pleased that we have more people joining in but no one is posting anything! Come on, don't be shy and introduce yourself! :D

Changes in forum

みなさん、こんにちは！

Minasan, kon'nichiwa!

"Hello everyone!"

It's a next day I have been working on the forum and I have made some changes. First of all I have changed the name, from Mini Sweets to DECO Forum. I think it's a better name as it will appeal to more people, not just clay lovers ^_^
I changed the layout of the forum and added deco den section and separated deco sweets. I also created web buttons for it and added it to my blog (the one on the right and at the bottom). They are just quick ones but it all can be changed at any time. If you would like to add it to your website or blog here are the links:

Long banner:
<div style="text-align: center; font-size: 12px;">
<a href="http://decoforum.findforum.net/index.htm" target="_blank" onmouseover="window.status='Over 2500 unique products from Japan -- click now!'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;" title="Over 2500 unique products from Japan -- click now!">
<img src="http://i924.photobucket.com/albums/ad89/rikku25/decoforumbannerlong.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a>
</div>

And the small one:
<a href="http://decoforum.findforum.net/index.htm" target="_blank"><img src="http://i924.photobucket.com/albums/ad89/rikku25/decoforumbannershort.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a>

I'm sorry but I don't know how to put it here in a different way :P If you would like it to be in different color to mach your blog just let me know :)
I really hope that this forum will start living it's own life. It's like my little baby :D Grow baby grow! ^______^'

I also had a chat with the owner of the cafe I work at and she liked all the phone charms I made! Whoop whoop! She said that maybe she could sell some in the cafe and tomorrow I'm going to speak to owner of the shop next door, maybe she'll like them too :)
Hopefully I will finish making all the stock for the Etsy too and start making a logo and banner. It's my last day of holidays so I have to make the most of it! :D

Mini Sweets Forum

This will be a quick post. I didn't want to add it to my previous one because it's just a different topic :)

I have created a free forum about clay sweets, kawaii things and all the Japanese cool stuff. The reason for that was I just couldn't find any website or forum where I could ask a question about making deco sweets etc. , show my work and ask for help and advice. There is of course Deco Den Journal but there is no clear classification of topics or easy search engine (just like on normal forum). Therefore I decided to create one. I tried to advertise it on Facebook, Live Journal  etc. but no response :( I still have access to this forum but I'm too shy and without any experience with managing it. I wish I could have someone trusted I could run it with -___-'

Here is a picture showing you how it looks like now:

and here is the link to it.

Anyone interested please visit it and make it alive finally! ^_____^'
