Secret Resolution List

Feather Stars Eighties Earrings - Out with the Old

Oh what a freaken surprise, another New Years Resolution List. Yadda yadda yadda, am I right? But this list will be the most magical, incredible list I have ever listed because this list I will actually be completing throughout the month. And I hate making New Year’s resolutions. In fact I slept through the wonderment of the midnight bells a tolling the death of the old raggedy year’s final minutes. Now, I haven’t made a resolution in absolute years but I’ve had these little gems on my mind since November. Thusly, I present to you my New Year’s Resolutions for the month of January:

1. Create a video advertising my Glamour Twinkles Jewelry

I am going to create a clever little YouTube ditty that shows off my jewelry pieces in an arty-farty manner. I have an idea of what I want to do, and I’m not setting high hopes, we’re in talks with some pretty big names (Spielberg, Lucas, Geffen – shhhhh tho). I think it will be a fun little venture for me during my Xmas/New Years’ Vacay. I’ll be posting progress updates on my Facebook page to keep you all informed of my “proactivity”.

2. Spend actual money on some online advertising.

Yeah, yeah, I’ve talked about this before. But I’ve continued doing secret research and I have decided to try my luck with a couple of places. Etsy have advertising now. I haven’t actually looked into this properly but Etsians have acknowledged my jewelry presence so I’m going to run with the idea. There are a couple of other Etsy related blogs that I’m looking at. I’m talking to you Handmadeology…

3. Jazz up this blog

I love checking out successful blogger’s blogs. They’ve created a brilliant little empire that cries out for return visits. It’s not just about the posts with these gals, its the whole ensemble. Current favorites are:

5. Regular posts on my Sparkling Candy Tumblr blog

I have certainly neglected my Tumblrinos. I want to create 365 posts in my Tumblr que so I have something posted every day. Now that I know how to actually blog pictures from other websites I have the world as my very own oyster. And everyone wants the world to be their oyster – for some weird reason…

6. Blog responsibly.

Create “pillar posts” Search engines love pillar posts and I want them to love me right back. A pillar post is something like a “how to” post. I’ll need to find pieces that can be recreated by you, my audience of billions. It may even become a monthly activity. Oh, imagine the fun we could have. You could make something using my how to instructions and then send me a picture. Wow, now I see why the search engines like ‘em. Thanks Google! I also want to include more Before and After posts, and have more photos of my new tidy workstation.
