<br />
We can't believe this day is really happening - it's our birthday! <a href="http://etsy.com/copperseal" target="_blank">Copperseal</a> has officially been up and running for 1 year.<br />
<br />
In the spirit of reminiscing, we both put together 3 simple things we learned while being Etsy sellers since last November. Here are our main takeaways:<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3OhaRfLfZQ_e-UPcc81nTi0h5pZXa7BGotl7D99ELhtF3GKwF2CA2wK4boYNlU8SkriTankJeV_KfiPawEWZJ00DxactIjYXm2UeWLziUCpBEnHuok5Vic213KcMYmMixVfBA0rmxTsqh/s1600/copperseal+top+3+takeaways+aeriel.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="113" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3OhaRfLfZQ_e-UPcc81nTi0h5pZXa7BGotl7D99ELhtF3GKwF2CA2wK4boYNlU8SkriTankJeV_KfiPawEWZJ00DxactIjYXm2UeWLziUCpBEnHuok5Vic213KcMYmMixVfBA0rmxTsqh/s400/copperseal+top+3+takeaways+aeriel.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>1. Raise Your Prices</b><br />
If you think your prices are fair, raise them even more! Quality, handmade work is something to be valued. Make sure your customer knows that value.<br />
<br />
<b>2. Go With Your Gut</b><br />
There's a reason you started this business in the first place, and that's because you have a keen business sense and know what you like. If something is telling you to do something out of the norm, go for it. It's your shop and your brand.<br />
<br />
<b>3. Buy What You Love</b><br />
If you wouldn't buy it, how do you expect your customers to? It's easy to feel the pressures of filling up the shop to stay relevant, but you have to remember: quality over quantity.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFJZOGggMhs_9wH1vOxH-Q6Ob2EJsI7Er0JEJ8QS1DdJL9PTREBqlMhlWHlbK55MGpt96cJKXwJVcJBGx7lN2bD5n_YxP6byCFJyXVm5yvbnkgzYCRssuv9LaLgEcxFBTZX6EXGJ6XFQSE/s1600/copperseal+top+3+takeaways+erica.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="113" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFJZOGggMhs_9wH1vOxH-Q6Ob2EJsI7Er0JEJ8QS1DdJL9PTREBqlMhlWHlbK55MGpt96cJKXwJVcJBGx7lN2bD5n_YxP6byCFJyXVm5yvbnkgzYCRssuv9LaLgEcxFBTZX6EXGJ6XFQSE/s400/copperseal+top+3+takeaways+erica.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>1. Quality Control</b><br />
Just because you're selling vintage, does not mean you can pass a broken-down piece of history as an item. Make sure the pieces have withheld the test of time, and they'll remain in your customer's lives much longer.<br />
<br />
<b>2. Learn From The Best</b><br />
When you're just starting out, it's easy to be overwhelmed with how many super successful shops there are on Etsy. Noticing who the top player in your field is good because you need to study them. Look at their first sales and where they are now. Take note of the actions they took to improve and mimic that.<br />
<br />
<b>3. Be Patient</b><br />
Rome wasn't built in a day. Whether you plan on building a "Rome" on Etsy or just merely want to make some extra cash, it's going to take time to build a steady following of people who care about your product and want to share it with the world. We're still not completely there, but we're keeping patient and continue to build our business slowly and surely.<br />
<br />
<i>Now on to the fun stuff!</i><br />
<br />
To celebrate, we're having a flash sale on all items in <a href="http://etsy.com/copperseal" target="_blank">the shop</a>. Use coupon code <b>ONEYEAR</b> at checkout and receive <b>10% off your entire purchase</b>! If you've been eyeing a few pieces for your holiday gift list, now is the time to purchase before they're gone for good.<br />

Her leather bracelets are scored and then hand painted to make a flexible but firm slip-on piece of art. How great would these look stacked??<br />

<br />
Read our interview with Hannah to learn more about her design process and creative background:<br />
<br />
<i>Tell us a little about yourself!</i><br />
My name is Hannah. I am an artist and musician from Colorado, but I recently moved to Brooklyn. I like clothes, chocolate, shapes, Sci-Fi, and obsolete machines. And I love to make anything and everything that I can dream up.<br />
<br />
<i>How did the idea to open up Brick and Arrow come about?</i><br />
I am kind of obsessed with triangles, and I wanted an interesting way to wear them. I made myself a couple of leather cuffs, and when I started getting compliments and inquiries from strangers, I knew I was onto something!<br />
<br />
<i>What inspires your work?</i><br />
I'm inspired by the simple elegance of geometric shapes and colors. I love the many ways you can make triangles fit together, and I always enjoy coming up with new designs and patterns. There are so many more possibilities than you would think!<br />
<br />
<i>Where do you see Brick and Arrow going in the future?</i><br />
I hope to add more leather products - such as bags and pouches - in the future. Eventually, there may be some metal jewelry and ceramics...but who knows what the future holds? I will be happy as long as I can continue to share my creations with others.<br />
<br />
<i>What advice do you have for creatives looking to sell on Etsy?</i><br />
Don't expect. Don't give up. Always be kind. And take nice pictures!<br />

If you ask Aeriel, it's no secret that I've been trying to take it back to basics when it comes to my wardrobe, my design aesthetic, and ultimately my way of life. There's something about doing a deep clean of your studio apartment and wanting to live minimally by the end of it (and also believing that once clutter is gone it will never return .... <i>right</i>). Regardless, I've been really into a basic color palette whether it's the items I choose for <a href="http://copperseal.etsy.com/" target="_blank">Copperseal </a>or the interior I'm designing at work.<br />
<br />
To go along with this theme, I've curated an <a href="https://www.etsy.com/treasury/NjQ0NTAzOHwyNzI0ODEyNDQy/native-tongue?ref=pr_treasury" target="_blank">Etsy treasury</a> to capture the simple aesthetic I'm after.<br />

Does anyone else have those defining moments in life (like a deep clean) that make you realize the importance of simplicity?<br />

We've both been super busy with work and trying to keep <a href="http://copperseal.etsy.com/" target="_blank">the shop</a> stocked that we admit to placing the blog on the back burner for a while. To get out of a blogger's slump and also celebrate this week's hump, we're giving away a special item from <a href="http://copperseal.etsy.com/" target="_blank">Copperseal</a>'s inventory -<br />
<br />
We found these beautiful cluster earrings at a local flea market near closing time. Whether it was our natural charm or eager persistance (we like to think it was the first), a kind woman finally agreed to unpack her jewelry bins to reveal a stash of vintage costume gems.<br />
<br />
Aeriel has since modified these original clip-on earrings to have post backs for modern application. The clusters are comprised of small resin beads with great shine and texture; a great addition to any summer event.<br />

This week we've added three special necklaces made from tiny vintage pendants to the shop. We plan to continue adding to our jewelry section with hopefully rings. Surprisingly enough, vintage rings are quite hard to come by in our neck of the woods. But, we're on it!<br />
<br />
Which necklace do you like best?<br />

<b>History of Old Crow Whiskey</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Dr. James C. Crow began brewing his soon-to-be-famous whiskey in Frankfurt, Kentucky in the 1830s. He originally sold whiskey to employers under the label "Crow", and called the aged bottles he sold "Old Crow."</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Old Crow's logo, a black crow perched atop grains of barley, is rumored to symbolize the bridging of the North and South during the Civil War. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The label was ultimately purchased by Jim Beam in the 1980s and what was once the leading Bourbon of the South is now a three-year-old label under a much larger brand name. </div>

<b>A Small History of Avon and Its Collectible Bottles</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
First known as the California Perfume Company in 1886 by New York couple David and Lucy McConnell, Avon began selling perfume and quickly gained popularity near the turn of the century. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
They began selling their first collectible bottle in 1968: a brown glass Sterling Six Classic car. The idea of fun-shaped bottles soon grabbed the attention of thousands and collectible perfume and cologne bottles became an Avon trademark throughout the 1960s. </div>

It was inspired by some of the geek gear we've happened across over the last couple of days and thought "Why not make a collection of what a truly classy science-geek would wear?" A lot of you may want to correct me and say: "It's science <i>nerd</i>, Erica. <i>Nerd</i>."<br />
<br />
<b>What is the difference between a geek and a nerd anyway?</b> Regardless, this is what we think either of them would buy:<br />

I'm finally back! And might I add that Blogspot (err, I mean Blogger) is looking rather dapper these days.<br />
<br />
This blog will now focus more on the process and updates of my Etsy shop, which I co-own with a friend.<br />
