Twilight: To List or Not To List

Following a thread in a Folksy Forum, I had an idea for a pendant for all those Twilight fans. I duly made this:


It's about 1 inch from top to bottom, made out of silver clay which I've textured and oxidised to resemble the appearence of the moon, then carved 'twilight' into it in the style of the book cover. My daughter wants to give it to her Twilight-obsessed friend for her birthday. I wondered about making another to list on Folksy, but I'm not sure if it's a bit too comercial for me, so I can't decide. What do you think?


I also made this ammonite style pendant out of silver clay which I may well list:


All feedback is gratefully received

Folksy!

I've taken the plunge and opened up a shop on Folksy. It seems very reasonable and I needed something other than my website to show potential customers at a distance ( I don't want my jewellery mixed in with my painting and prints- at the moment anyway). These are the items I've made, photographed and listed so far:

























































Apparently, I now need for the Folksy community to accept me - it feels like the first day of school all over again...GULP! I'm not sure how to get accepted, I don't think rolling my socks down and taking out my pigtails will work here somehow. If any of you bloggers out there know the way forward, could you please let me know, and/or accept me? (Is there a funny handshake involved?)
