Packaging

I've put the finishing touches on the packaging for my Etsy shop! Each piece of jewelry will come nestled in a simple kraft gift bag, sweetly tied up with striped bakers twine and a Nestled tag.

My favorite detail is the bakers twine. Check out the massive two pound spool I have!

I think it's safe to say I have enough of it to last me a lifetime. Or two.

Nestled is now on Etsy!

That's right! I opened my Etsy shop over the weekend! Click the logo below to check it out:

Right now I'm featuring a small collection of necklaces I've made. I eventually want to try my hand at making earrings too. I have some great ideas floating around in my head that I can't wait to try out. Please browse around the shop and let me know what you think! (And "like" me on Facebook!)

Shop Preview

As I mentioned in this post, I've been dabbling with the idea of opening a shop on Etsy selling my handmade jewelry. Well, my plans are coming together nicely and it won't be long before Nestled is open! 

Okay, so it's completely empty right now. But I'm working on it! Here's a preview of a couple pieces you will see in the shop:

While starting a new endeavor like this is very exciting, there are also a few fears that come along with it. Etsy is such a huge place with so many great sellers... what if my shop just gets lost among the rest? Or what if I make all these necklaces and nobody wants to buy them?

If anyone has any beginner's advice to share about selling on Etsy, I would love to hear it!
