Pickles

Pickles, my fluffy kitty.

Im memory of my beautiful baby, Pickles, who passed away yesterday. We got him when I was in 2nd grade &I know it will be difficult to go to my parents house without him being there. Out of all of our kitties he was the cat with the loudest personality, but the softest meow. He will be greatly missed.

Look at that beautiful pink coat!

Here he is just a few months ago - perfectly healthy!

My heart is so heavy.

Experimenting with photos

Thin gold ring

I really want to revamp my shop and redo all my photos. Let me tell you something, I absolutely HATE taking jewelry product photos. With rings they're so small and flat, I feel like it's impossible to get a good composition of them by themselves. (I don't know how the professionals do it!)

I'd like to go much lighter with my photos. I think they would have a better chance of being featured that way.

But I can't help holding onto the old photos because I just love the contrast of the light jewelry against the dark background. 

I wonder if my shop would look scattered if I used the (current) dark pictures as secondary pictures in the listing. 

With only 14 items in my shop, I still feel overwhelmed by how much work it'll take to redo all the pictures for them. Have you ever felt like photos are the only thing holding you back from revamping your shop?
