Part 2-
I also am in 2 going on 3 amazing shops ran by amazing women in my community and their kindness will never be lost on me and it's also time that I put in as much effort as I can to update my selections and keep up the inventories in those amazing spaces!
What this looks like for my awesome online and social media customers and friends! I will still be making holiday jewelry like normal, just at a smaller scale! I will try to have a monthly routine of story sales and of course content to promote it! I still have Square as by commerce and can send invoices for claims much like how I was making customs on my site! I know this will lead to maybe some drop off but I want to build back up and know that regardless I love my brand, I am healthy, and my support system is there regardless of how I pivot!
As for customs; keep em' coming! I love getting messages asking for a pair of something you need coming up!! Making this change actually benefits customs because it means that I can actually put my entire heart into them and allow myself to have even more fun!
What content will look like; I am actually hoping that I can make much bigger and better content going foward that I actually want to make without a looming cloud that I HAVE to make causing it to not get done 🤣 (exactly what happened to my website) I want to make many behind the scenes moments and share them into one great reel [come with me as I prep for lil shop, I made these, a sneak peak at my table, shopping for my display, etc.] Things that will be fun for a viewer but a memory box for me!
To wrap it up, I am very thankful to everyone reading this (and if you read both parts round of applause👏👏) I wouldn't have even had a website to shut down without you 🤣
Krystal'sGems is still thriving and I'm still going to be creating, just without the rain cloud of feeling guilty by not focusing on what I told myself success was meant to look like. The only reason I kept paying for my website was because I felt embarrassed to shut it down, it was a part of me, but it has served it's purpose💙 I rather tell it goodbye for now than to continue to let it rot.🥺 It was so pretty and shiney though😆🥹
