Nouvelles / News

Pour commencer, sachez que les boutiques DaWanda et Etsy fermeront le 15 décembre, jusqu'à une date qui demeure à déterminer et qui sera fonction de mon changement d'approche et de statut.
Depuis quelque temps, il est clair que le statut d'entreprise ne me convient absolument pas, ni financièrement, ni moralement. Je vais donc prendre le temps nécessaire pour revoir ma situation et adopter le statut légal qui convient.
En attendant, les coordonnées présentes sur mes cartes de visites restent valides et je reste disponible pour le service après-vente nécessaire..

Par ailleurs, Le Bar du Vent sera présent au Marché de Noël organisé par Chai, rue du Mirail à Bordeaux, à partir du 17 décembre. : )

In order to think over and operate a change of legal status, aiming at adopting one better fitted to how I like to craft and how much time I can afford to allow for it, I will close my Etsy and DaWanda shops on December 15, until further notice...

Merry-Go-Round - Fairs and Shows


Jump on our merry go round and join a group of artists/crafts-women from around the world as they link hands and tell you a little bit about their lives in craft.
Do look up the answers from the rest of this band of crafters (links to your left).
If they haven't all posted yet, remember we all live in different time zones and check again later...
This month:
Fairs and shows— do you do them? If you don't, why not?


Well, this is a topic that I find very interesting, because I haven't been able to take part in any so far— due to having a rather engrossing and time-consuming full-time "day-job".
All I know, so far, is that everyone says it's the best way to reach your custom, because most people aren't into virtual reality when it comes to shopping for jewellery and other trinkets. But it involves a lot of work and organizing, as well as time...
Very curious to read what other merry goers have to say about their experience!

A DaWanda Seller's Christmas Holiday


The Christmas Holidays - so long expected, so yearningly looked forward to - Getting away is the key-word here. A change of scene.

So this is where I'll be off (photos taken early November, this year), as soon as possible, to be away from my day job, deep in the heart of the heart of the French country.
Apart from champagne and sweet as well as savoury delights (mandatory, you understand), there will be a lot of photographing and knitting involved, and hopefully a little time to experiment with new stuff - I'm quite curious about resin and look forward to trying out a few ideas.

By the time the End of Year holidays have arrived, the work on other people's celebrations and presents has long been done, so it's also a good time to focus on those excellent resolutions that will make me a better crafter next year... Not sure my holidays will be long enough to figure that one out!

One change I do intend to make is to make this blog bilingual - but I still need to decide on how exactly... Suspense!

A "small" wish for the New Year, if I may : let DaWanda improve and grow and develop, and let our enthusiasm and work and efforts be rewarded!

A very Happy Crafty New Year to you all, DaWandians and others!
