First Count

I LOVE pulling out my oversized shopping bag filled with all the bracelets I've made. I do it before and after every art fair. After the holiday season I relax and don't think about bracelets for a few weeks - until application season kicks in, which it has. : )

First count of each year is so interesting.  First count informs me of what sold well in previous seasons, what style or size may not be working  well and what sizes, colors and styles I need to begin making. I've been selling my beaded bracelets for nine seasons! One of the most interesting pieces of information is the total number of bracelets I sold each season.

Later this week I'll begin doing "set-ups." I'll share that part of my behind the scenes operation later.

Until then, enjoy the bead hoard!
