I very much appreciate all the comments from yesterday’s post on World AIDS Day – it means a lot to me and is very validating of those 15 years I poured myself into the work.  I am trying to thank people for comments … but I have not gotten caught back up to that yet.  I know I said today I was going to write more about our HIV/AIDS organizing … but I have been on the phone today for almost 4 hours catching up with family – so the time just isn’t there today.  Hopefully tomorrow – or Thurs if not.

Diane’s 1000 Markets

But I want to share with you what I did do today … Besides putting quite a few new items in my Etsy shop yesterday and today, I opened a new shop.  Someone invited me to check out this place 1000 Markets (http://www.1000markets.com). I have spent much of the day working on getting my shop ready to be approved.

Yes, you have to be approved once you get your shop ready before it can go public.  I feel very lucky – my shop (http://www.1000markets.com/shops/dianeclancy) was approved almost immediately!!  Here is the front page of my shop so you can see what it looks like.  I hope you will jump over and go take a peek!

I feel so grateful – I have spent hundreds of hours organizing and preparing my work and marketing materials for shops.  It is starting to really pay off.  Once I get things written up for the different paintings, the different ways I sell my work, the different pricing … it starts to become more streamlined.  Then I don’t have to re-invent what to say about each piece.  But it still took hours to set up.

I hope you like it … and thank you for coming by!
