Beautiful Necklace Giveaway from ArtUnderGlass...

This week Giveaway is "Brilliant Blue Butterfly Intial Collage Double Sided Silver Soldered Charm Necklace" from ArtUnderGlass

About me :

My name is Becky Lanktree, I live in Las Vegas, Nv with my husband of almost 10 years & our 2 very spoiled but adorable "Cocker Spaniel" doggies, Maxx & Trinity. I have 2 children, My Son Stephen & his wife Kayla & my Daughter Mandy & her love of 8 years almost, Earl. Both of my children live in different states, so don't see them near enough.

What makes you became an artist?

I have always loved to create & from a very young age watched my mom do crafty things, she was very talented in that department, she mostly knitted & crocheted, but also did many other things, so I think that is where it began.

When did you start selling at ETSY?

Until my Daughter got me to come to sell my jewelry on Etsy, I tried selling a numerous different outlets & still do some local shows, but Etsy keeps me very busy & also my wholesale clients also keep me very busy.

What is your favourite product from your shop and why?

My favorite item in my shop is wow, that's hard, because it changes weekly! I really love my new "Oval Bubbles" in all of them! I have so many designs in my head, but not enough time to get them all done, I need 3 of me, but I get as many new things up as I can.



How do you promote your work?

I know that on Etsy it is just like having your own physical shop, you have to keep things fresh, new things all the time. I have a lot of return customers, so it is very important to have new things for them. I currently do not promote too many places besides Etsy, I like to do blog giveaways & am always up for donating items for charities as much as I can, it is hard to turn down, so I try to do them as much as I can. I got the opportunity to be involved with "A Match Made In Halo", the online game sponsored 2 of their gamers that met on the game & got married, Full Sail University put on their wedding during their convention & it was quite a big event, so I was asked to donate the pendants for the Bridal Party, that was fun.
