Sunday

My day just ended. I am really sleepy but I just want to write something here before I officially end my day!

As expected since Sunday is my self-declared day off I haven’t done much today. I was able to create just 5 pieces today. I know I can do more but today is busy day because it’s my grandmother’s death anniversary and so my relatives on mother side decided to get together, although as soon as it’s over I get back to work. I am working while chatting with jed online. I can’t help but continue working.

I tried a new routine today, once I’m done with one project I will take its photo, assign product code/decide on the price, and then work on a new project. It’s different from my usual routine of continuous project making, assign product code/decide on the price and take pictures of the products after a week. I like the new routine better I think it will save me more time plus I can easily monitor my sales. So when I declared I am done making projects for today, I decided to edit the photos of a week worth of projects and encode the products in my inventory. I am still thinking if I am going to upload photos tomorrow on my online shops or I should wait until I get the left over from my cousin. By the way my multiply account is now operating here’s the link. I hope you guys can visit. That’s all for today!




These are my projects for today, the yellow bracelets were designed last week but a couple of friends want them so i made two today!

It’s Sunday! I can sleep for as long as I want. I just woke up by the way (10:32am) I call this my real day off. Meaning I don’t have to spend all day creating beaded pieces. I’ve been working hard all week for Yellowpop Collection. But since I am addicted to it I am planning to still create projects later lol! I am so happy that people around me love my creation. I am planning to update my online shop on Monday (tomorrow) but my cousin took everything yesterday so she can show it to her friends and co-workers so I end up with nothing. I’ll just have to wait what is left on Wednesday and I will upload photos on my online shop. This morning, another cousin texted me asking for my collection, she said she wants to show it to her friends too. Wow! They are so helpful. I wish I have enough pieces to give them. So, I decided to duplicate every creation from now on. I will make two pieces for one design. This way I’ll have pieces to sell online and another for my personal network. If need arises I will make three pieces for the same design. I didn’t expect that it’s going to be a lot of work but I am happy that business is doing great.



My creations from Monday to Friday, some of them were sold!

yellowpop collection

I worked hard today for my online shop. I have both on facebook and multiply. My multiply account is still under construction. I haven’t been logged on to multiply for so long and now I almost forgot the way around. But after exploring it tonight I kind of get the hang of it again! So anyway, just like I’ve mentioned I started an online shop. Mostly I sell beaded accessories and other accessories like rings and others are resell items. Items I found from shopping and definitely worth sharing.
My beaded products are designed and created by me. It was really a tedious job. Imagine sitting all day on my work station creating beaded accessories and check my online site from time to time. It is really exhausting, but I enjoyed doing it at the same time. After each finish product I get the feeling of satisfaction. My designs are not extravagant though, but still I consider them great pieces and really worth wearing. I am going to post some of the pictures here to show you. I use product code to identify my design for my customers on my networking site shop but I have nicknames for each of them. It kinda makes me remember them easily.

Nickname: sunkist (for its color)

nickname: joy (my sister love this and her name is joy)



Nickname: Snow (it reminds me of snow and ice)


Nickname: None (lol its my favorite I will not forget it!)



Nickname: Mayen (this is my nickname i mean, mayen is me..they say this one reminds them of me!)

By the way all these items were sold! They love it!


I call my shop Yellowpop Collection, aha, just like the name of this blog site. Yellow because it’s my favorite color and to me it sounds good. Pop because “P” is really fun to enunciate …pop..pop..pop..try it! It’s fun..lol. I’m not really sure, how long this online shop will stand the test of time and I am not sure if can last doing this for a long time. What I know now, is that I am enjoying it and the great thing is I get fulfillment doing it. It’s like strengthening my passion for fashion. I love it. I’ve been working all day and yet I don’t complain. I feel tired and yet I don’t whine which is not common to me, believe me, I am the type of person that would complain over and over again to any feeling of discomfort. So this is something new for me, doing what I love and at the same time earn extra money! That all for now..tah..tah..
