I'm having trouble with the proper lighting of my photos. I made the recommended light box, but my light source isn't good enough. Right now I'm using a 100 w desk lamp and my pictures come out too dark. I can fix it a little with the photo editing software, but that isn't a good solution. I remember I used to take the pictures outside and that worked a bit better, but that only works in summer when it is cloudless. Which is alright for now, but I intend to continue making beads through the winter and I'm going to want to post them.
I've forgotten in the last few items to tell buyers that it has been properly annealed so I'm going to have to go back and edit. It is important in lampworking because if it isn't annealed the piece could break and buyers are leery of buying improperly annealed pieces because of that.
As for my business card campaign I'm having a hard time finding people and places to pass them out. It was nice in Cali because they had a plethora of art shops that let you place adverts on bulletin boards, but Utah just has Micheal's and it doesn't have and boards. All the people I've seen lately know that I have a shop so I can't give them cards. This campaign is starting to look like a bust. I wish I had started back up in time for craft fair season.
