Beach Glass Treasure

Hello everyone, Rachel Town here! Apologies for the lapse in time since my last post, as it has been a very productive and busy time of year! I'm going to kick off this post with a revamped style and pave the way for a completely new Feature Sunday, which will highlight one of these three categories on a weekly basis: beach glass businesses or fine artists or bloggers every week. To begin this weekly tradition, I am featuring three of the best beach glass businesses that I have had the pleasure of crossing paths with. If you would like to be featured on this blog and have a beach glass business, or you're a fine artist, or you are a blogger please reach out to me via email as I love collaborating with other creative entrepreneurs! 1.) Treasures By Nature Who this sea glass business is and why did I choose them?

Have you submitted your artwork to a museum or a gallery with a smile believing that they would never lie straight to your face and that they really love your work....to only later find out that they consider it a reject? Did they market the event as a Spring art show or did a single juror call all of the shots of who made it or not? Did you also know that there was more going on behind the scenes that seemed to not involve you at all? -This post contains affiliate links.

Have you ever heard of a bullet journal? Some call it a creative planner, or bujo, however, it's a powerful nontechnical way to schedule, plan and organize everything in one place. The best part is that you get to create it however you would like. The design, the layout, what you want to put into it and what you don't want to put in it.

Shopify is a career-saving decision if you haven't yet I highly recommend that you seriously consider! Recently I've been moving my inventory over to Shopify from two different stores I was using before. I'm doing it piece by piece, therefore, its taking longer time than anticipated, however, I'm already seeing results. Why on Earth would I do this and why am I telling you about it? Let me explain further... I was using Etsy and VangoArt to sell my inventory of original paintings on canvas. I had customers, however, the issue remained of where there could have been many more. When an attempt on my end to further sales was not getting me further I knew I had to make a change. For instance, there were potential customers who had put some of my artworks into their carts and there was nothing I could do about it to make sure that a sale happened. There were plenty of options that I knew how to implement and wanted to so badly make the right moves but this pow
