Creations by others that I like on ETSY!

  
Check out this vintage button charm bracelet by Moon Hollow on Etsy.com I love this bracelet because not only is it pink but it has so much character oh and there's a purple button on there too! another one of my favorite colors. I also love how chunky this bracelet is and the variety of buttons that's been arranged on this piece. The people on Etsy are very talented and make beautiful peices! Go check it out :) http://www.etsy.com/listing/88394699/free-shipping-vintage-charm-bracelet?ref=sr_gallery_5&ga_search_submit=&ga_search_query=charm+bracelet&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_ship_to=US&ga_search_type=all&ga_facet= 

can you really make money from surveys?





I once saw a news report about the economy and a woman who after losing her job started searching for paid surveys. Turns out there are paying surveys out there that's not a scam.  She didn't make a ton of money but i think she made around 200 dollars a week and 200 dollars a week is much better than zero dollars a week. If you want to search for paid surveys beware of the scams.  Here are a few tips when looking for paid surveys:



  1. Never give money to get money (meaning if they ask for you to pay to take a survey chances are it's a scam)
  2. Always check the website to make sure it's legitimate (check out the source and location of the business by scrolling down to the very bottom of the page) 
  3. Never give your info if they can't provide some of theirs ( meaning if there are no contact info displayed on the website such and phone number or email, its not recommended to give  any of your information. You don't want anyone stealing your identity.
  4. And Lastly, don't fall for the old bait and switch (there are sites out there that ask you to pay for a "list of free surveys". I've tried those and from personal experience I just landed on another page that asked for the same thing. 
Hopefully these tips were helpful to you. oh and here's another tip my Sister who works for Pepsi told me.. Do your survey search on Yahoo.com! She says that they are great at weeding out the illegitimate websites.  
Good luck!

I LOVE SATURDAYS!

Today was a nice day. Instead of going to church I stayed at home and watched online. I had a relaxing day at home. Then later i decided to make more pieces. I'm trying to make more because my inventory is a bit low on Etsy. So far ive made 23 more pieces of jewelry. I lo
ve making jewelry but i think i will take a break from it for now and resume later or tomorrow. I will show you what i've made tomorrow but until then take a look at some peices i've made and sold in the past
