I have opened a second shop at Etsy, KathrynSemolic.etsy.com, for my paintings, prints, and cards. Each day I add several items to the shop. Large blank greeting cards suitable for framing start at 5.25, small unframed prints are typically under $20. Original paintings range from $110. to $1200. Soon I will be adding some larger reproductions on canvas, as well as on paper.
My other Etsy shop, peepeyes.etsy.com, will continue to offer my handpainted clothing, home decor and gift items, my hand crafted jewelry and barettes, and discontinued and clearance pieces from the studio. I have added a shop section for kits and instructions which will continue to grow. The mehndi henna kit I offer there is becoming popular and the Etsy crowd loves to try new artforms. I will be adding kits for other projects such as origami and henna dyed scarves. As a result of the Etsy Destash Bash, I have also added a section that is devoted to offering supplies for arts and crafts where you can find great buys on things like adhesives or fabric paints and dyes, as well as handmade items, like beads and charms, to use in your projects. The Peepeyes and li’l Peepeye critters have their own section now and those li’l critters are traveling all over, safely nestled in their little eggs as they make their way to their new homes. That is such a happy thing for me!
I have been having a lot of fun on Etsy lately, working to get my stuff out there on a regular basis and loving the wonderful work of so many talented and visionary artisans. It’s definitely worth a visit, but don’t say I didn’t warn you, you will be hooked!
I am moving around a lot better now and can walk in the walking cast without my walking stick. It feels good to have both hands free and be moving about a bit more quickly. I’m itching to get to work on the new studio, but I still am quite awkward in the boot, besides, there are more pressing matters at hand, like taxes!
