In between beading lately, I've been attempting to get some sort of web page up to expand my jewelry business. Though I've been beading for over ten years now I still feel like I'm always learning new things and finding new techniques to add to my skills and designs.

Where I'm most lacking now is in computer literacy. I'm trying and SLOWLY getting a couple of pages up before I make a bigger step and start a shop online and/or get a website set up. Talk about foreign! I feel like I'm from another planet as people quickly try to breeze through a quick lesson on getting going.

Never did I think that when I started beading that I would end up entreating friends to get involved with me and help me get a successful business going. If not for those same friends, though, I probably wouldn't be trying to do just that. I'd very likely be sitting on a huge pile of jewelry that I hadn't yet gotten to give away or sell a little.  I probably never would have kept working at learning everything I could about the process and try to push the limits whenever an idea came into my head that appeared to be impossible.

So I'm taking this journey whenever I take a break from beading to try to follow the "easy" instructions for setting up business pages, for setting up different accounts to encompass the various aspects of the business. The pages are rough, bare at first, and I long for the polish I see other places, but I'm trying to remain patient and persevere. You're never too old to learn and I'm hoping to prove that.... eventually.
