Over the past several years, I have owned and operated my online business, AngelQ Expressions. My primary goods are handmade jewelry and accessories. I have branched out with handpainted wares, as well as bath and body products. Recently, I decided to downsize and focus on more of the creating process, so I closed up my IKinRead Designs shop and Women's Wit on Etsy. For those of you who enjoyed those oddities, do not fret. They will make their reappearance in my AngelQ Expressions shop soon enough.
I have also opened up shop on ArtFire, because as the saying goes, "Never put all of your eggs in one basket.". This gives me the opportunity to find out for myself how much promoting and marketing actually pay off. So far, I am seeing positive results. People come to my shop because of my shop. My venue is just that...a venue. Trying to compete with literally hundreds of thousands of handmade shops is not an easy task. I try to be true to myself and what I do. And I believe my customers appreciate it.
I truly enjoy the creative process. I am thrilled knowing that what I make is being worn and loved all over the world, from the US to the UK, Netherlands, Romania, and beyond! I am a sucker for the paranormal. I love Supernatural and all things Winchester. I design jewelry and accessories that you may never find in your average joe department store -- and that's the whole point. Showing your individuality. Be who you are. When all is said and done, the label on the inside of your trousers doesn't really matter. It's the really cool person that is wearing it that counts.
So, I continue to do what I do and love it just the same. No complaints on this end. This is a wonderful time in my business where I can have the freedom to create pieces that I love and just happen to have customers who love them too. For that, I am truly grateful. Onward to my muse. Oh, what wonderful things she has in store!
