Some of you may know that I’ve been trying to get my new jewelry website up since the past 5 months or so, and it’s still not finished. Yes, it’s pretty pathetic, but I’m finally going back at it and am making decent progress. I’m just getting into pricing items and I’ve yet to put up necklaces and bracelets and the such, but the earrings and bookmarks are up. You just can’t buy them yet. Please don’t try to buy any jewelry if you see add-to-cart buttons, those have yet to be tested. If you really want to purchase something, let me know and we can do the transaction through e-mail =).
But enough talk! I’ll let you take a look at it in its unpolished form: http://gemstonejar.com/
I’m trying to keep it simple and earthy, but I hope that the menu table isn’t too bland. (My skills are limited) Please be honest and give me as much constructive critisicm as you want! Colors, layout, easy of use, jewelry, prices, information, pictures, sizes, text, and all of that. I can’t make it better if no one tells me what needs to be fixed. I sometimes worry that my tastes are strange to others. Personally, one of the things that’s bugging me a lot right now is the title picture on the main page. I love how I wrote the words with beads and gemstones, but I think that the picture is too dark and “aggressive”. Do you agree? I’ve yet to figure out which picture I’m going to put in the top right corner of every page…
I can’t wait to get the site up and working. Then I’ll finally allow myself to post all my new jewelry! I have over 30 new necklaces and a bunch of earrings, bookmarks, keychains and bracelets to put up.
If you’re interested in seeing more of my jewelry, you can find them at The Blue Bead http://thebluebead.bravehost.com/ I’m still taking custom orders for those interested in that.
