Important update and questions

I am working on a new shop that will make it easier for people to pay through paypal for the jewelry I create. You can take a look at it here http://www.wix.com/golddragonjewelr.....dragon-jewelry

please tell me what you think of it, I think I need to make or have a new banner made. I have 4 items up for sale now and shipping is included in the price.

I am trying very hard to save up the remaining $250 to pay off my fursuit.

I am debating on selling art but I know I am not very good at it. I could do something like a drawing for a donation or something along those lines. Like if you donate a $1 + I will draw something and if you donate more than $5 you get more than one drawing or something like that. My drawings are not really that bad if I actually spend time on them.

I could do something like ,if you donate $10 you get a custom chain mail bracelet and a traditional ( or digital) drawing.


Should I attempt to sell paintings? I do mixed media paintings

I am thinking that i am going to try to start selling cakes in my moms shop ( like maybe one cake at a time) just to see if I can ..I inherited my grandmothers love of baking

but anyway ..thoughts, ideas ?

August Beach trip


The beach trip was quite fun we went from the 13th to the 17th to North Myrtle Beach and stayed at the beautiful Tilghman Beach and golf resort. It was awesome we had a 2 bedroom 2 bath condo on the 12th floor, I found it amusing that we were in condo 1212 on level 12. Scot only got to stay through Monday though because of work but I enjoyed the time he was with me. Every night it seemed that we were going to a new event including the Pirate adventure  ( what dixi stampede turned into) , it was amazing and had good food and a great show. My only complaint was that the beds were way too hard, I am used to my bed which is big and not extremely firm. These beds hurt my back but the condo was beautiful.

We swam in the ocean a bit , dad and I did that is, it was so cool some little fish swam right in between us. Also a ball of sea weed floated by me so i captured it and put it on dds head during one picture. That picture is my fvorite one of the whole trip. Also I think we are untill we almost poped, but isn't that the most fun on vacation. My family loves food, so we had to hit up a few buffets and they were all really good. So my vacation was pretty neat.
