NEW Pictures! What I have learned.

I have learned that I actually love taking them.. I had so much fun, putting different arrangements in the vases, until I felt like I got them right.

This is my sweet flowers vase.. I made that little wire flower yesterday morning..and I woke up to find this little guy in a Treasury.

I learned to make sure the vase is facing the right way before I take the picture. See my initials on there? Yup, I should have turned this one around.

And this is Bubbles.. I just like Bubbles so much, and I really like the way the greens look in this one.



And this is the vase I call Citrus, it is in two treasuries posted last night! Here and Here.




A big lesson I have to learn is how to take the proper picture that when I upload it to Etsy, it doesn't cut my picture off in the thumbnail. I think that is a matter of centering that first picture..hmm.. Unfortunately my time is cut short during the week, with all of our running around shenanigans. So, I will have to do another photo shoot at another time, to fix my mistakes. But, I am proud of what I accomplished thus far. Sometimes it is important to give yourself a pat on the back.

Have a great week!

Hi Kristin,

I noticed your new shop photos straight away. I must say, they are looking great! I'm not surprised they're included in those lovely treasuries :) Congrats!!!

They look great! I do love the addition of the flowers and greens...it brightens the pictures somehow, if that makes sense. They make a beautiful vase even more beautiful.
