This thimble is the same design as the first one I showed you last week but you see how the colour affects the result. This is on a modern side colour scheme and the other one was rather traditional. Don't equate "traditional" to "subdued", though. Bright light green and red is traditional colour combination for young girl's kimono and no one can call it subdued, can she? Anyway I like the result and pink cheers me up, everyone needs something to cheer her up, even if it's so tiny as to a thimble, when the day is getting shorter and shorter.
I am setting up my shop at Etsy. I have just signed up and that's all so there is nothing to see there now, but I intend to list some thimbles there later today. When my shop becomes presentable, I will let you know and I would appreciate it if you could pop in and have a look at and tell me what you think about it.
Post Script I: It still needs some cosmetic touch up, but my Etsy shop is kind of soft open: Please have a look and visit with me here, I listed five thimbles including this one.
Post Script II: There has to be a way to put the permanent link on my blog, but I cannot find it yet. Perhaps someone help me?
Good morning, I love this pink thimble..it is very much unlike any thimble I've ever seen.
ReplyDeleteGood good luck with your shop...can't wait to see it.
Happy PS

Welcome to your first Pink Saturday, Chloe Patricia. You have such a beautiful name. It makes me think of sweet-smelling flowers.
ReplyDeleteYour thimbles are just gorgeous. And, they are so unusual. Do you live in Japan? I am anxious to see your Etsy shop. Thank you for this perfect Pink Saturday post.
Happy Pink Saturday. Your post was so interesting, and I really enjoyed seeing your thimble. Good luck, too, with your Etsy shop!

I love your thimble. Unusual shape. Not what I am used to. I always try to visit people who say they are new and welcome them. So welcome to Blogland. Now about putting the link for your shop on your blog. 1: Go to Customize your blog. It is on the top bar when you are on your blog. 2: Click on add a gadget. 3: click on the HTML thingy to add to your blog. It opens up a place to put the URL of your shop website. 4: Hit save, very important part here. SAVE. 5: After it saves, you are back on the customize page. At that point you can do a click and drag to put your link where ever you want it to be on your page. Probably on your side bar area. You can have it be the first item on your side bar or farther down. That is your choice. I hope this helps you with fixing things on your blog. Happy Pink Saturday!!
