Getting a Grip
Due to circumstances beyond my control, I have had to delay the date that I officially start my new business – Solunar Silver Studio – until the first of July. This has given me time to get to grips with building a website and doing all the other advertising paraphernalia that I feel I will need to get a good launch. I was hoping to be able to pass this responsibility over to someone who has more IT skills than I will ever have but that has never quite happened and so I have been working at it …a little bit here…and a little bit there… I am slowly getting the idea…and today I finally worked out how to get my Solunar Silver Studio logo incorporated into a repeat design that I could use as a wallpaper for my website! I am inordinately pleased with myself!! The image above is an enlarged section – just to give you an idea…and a preview…because, of course, you will all come visit my website when I get it going… won’t you!!!
I still have a way to go yet but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel – and believe me – it has been a long time coming!
I have also had the time to build up quite a stock in decorative silver chains (mainly bracelets) which is my main interest and delight when it comes to making fine (pure) silver jewellery. This is just a small section (about a third) of the chains I am about to send off to the Edinburgh Assay Office to get my personal hallmark applied to the little heart shaped tags I attach to all of my handmade chains.
So – I think I can be forgiven for leaving a bit of a gap between this and my previous post…and anyway – people seemed to be interested in my ‘Rose Nose’ post as there has been a pretty constant number of visitors each day over the past week. And, for the record…for anyone wanting to know how the hay fever remedy is working – I have had a couple of days when I was wondering if the effect was wearing off as my nose was itching (but not intolerably) and needed blowing a few times but that was when the pollen count was really high. I have not yet had to resort to any other type of medicine to control the symptoms – I have just continued to use the device as indicated and I have been fine. I’m still reluctant to say it is ‘cured’ but I am having a much more comfortable summer that I usually do!
Well, I must get back to doing a bit more on my website building. I’ll let you know when I ‘open the doors’ to Solunar Silver Studio’s on-line presence and look forward to getting some feedback from you all!
