Quick Questions #1

Seeing as I seem to know far too many useless things about etsy and related bits and pieces, I thought I'd start a regular 'Quick Questions' blog feature. Post your questions in the comments, and I'll choose one to answer next time- it can be an etsy-related question, or you can post about other random silly things....

Question:
A question that came up today was about whether it is possible to add an etsy mini to a facebook fan page.

Answer:
The answer is yes, but it's a bit tricky and facebook can be a bit buggy (the 'boxes' tab doesn't always show up for business pages when you need it). Complete instructions can be found on Anna's blog (from TheHouseofMouse on etsy) here.

To summarise (if you already know what you're doing), add the application 'My Stuff' to your fan page and paste in your etsy mini code, then click 'add to profile'.
Next, go to your profile and find the 'boxes' tab on your profile- you may need to click on the '+' tab and look for boxes. If you can't find it, try later (this is the buggy bit).
Once you find the boxes tab, click on it and go to the 'My Stuff' application, then click on the little pencil (top right). Select 'Move To Wall Tab'. It can take a bit of stuffing around, but this should work. You can see mine here: http://www.facebook.com/morphologica

Exciting Week & Brand New Designs...

After launching my new scientific jewellery range late last month, I am happy to say that my rather risky venture appears to be succeeding (phew!).

This week I was lucky enough to be featured on two very popular blogs- one in Russian (!). I was very excited to discover a blog post about Morphologica on the Mind Hacks blog- a psychology and neuroscience blog. The featured piece was my Pyramidal Neuron necklace:

'Morphologica is a neuroscientist in the final stages of her PhD who also makes wonderful brain-inspired jewellery. The piece in the picture is the lovely pyramidal neuron necklace, although there are also earrings and necklaces inspired by the double helix, the contours of the cortical surface and cell proliferation. And if you're a jewellery wearer (sadly, I can never find the shoes to match) you can pick up any of the pieces from Morphologica's online store.' www.mindhacks.com
. . .

I've had a bit of a rush of sales this week, so need to create some more in a hurry!! I did manage to sneak some time today to add some brand new designs:
Helical Symmetry- double helix DNA necklace

bRain- raindrop necklace with brain contours

Multiply- proliferating cell earrings

Pyramidal- pyramidal neuron necklace

bRain- raindrop earrings with brain contours

Geek is the New Cool- geek necklace

Section- laser-engraved brain necklace

So this Sunday has been an unusually productive one ;)
I'm also working on a new more complicated design at the moment, but I think it will take a while to develop it....
