Jamaican Rum Cake
Jamaican rum cake is one of my favorite cakes. Growing up, around the holidays I use to enjoy holiday house hopping and the tasting of various rum cakes. So you can imagine the excitement I had when I came across B’s Jamaican Rum Cake on Etsy!!!! I was ecstatic beyond belief. She even has Rum Cake bites–perfect for gift giving.

We all know the holidays are creeping up on us. I think it is safe to say that our shopping habits this year will be very different in comparison to previous years. While web surfing I came across this site called Cafe Handmade and what caught my attention were the words “Virtual Craft Show.” I’ve participated in various craft shows throughout the year, some were great others not too great, but Cafe Handmade is offering affordable prices to be apart of their Virtual Craft show. What I love about handmade goods is that it is so personable and very creativity and they make WONDERFUL gifts that are easy on the pocket. Check out Cafe Handmade this holiday season for your holiday gift shopping.

Custom orders for jewelry pieces has been a great opportunity for me. I would say that about 50% of my sales come from customers who see my work and request a special order. Before designing pieces I always find out a little information about the customer as far as personality traits, favorite colors, places they love to visit and etc; Jewelry not alone adds spice to a person’s outfit, but it also tells you a lot about a person. Here are a few custom pieces that I current designed for one of my customers. What do you think their personality traits are based on these pieces???
