Sweeter Than Honey Etsy Treasury - Good Night and Good Luck

I am honored to have my photo "Good Night and Good Luck"  featured in an Etsy Treasury. While I am new to Etsy (my store opened in July) I am learning the ropes. Having an item in a treasury definitely brings it to the attention of many people. Please click on my Etsy link above and mark my photo as a favorite. I'm told that having it marked as a favorite by many people makes it come up higher in the searches. I have not sold anything from my Nancy Olivia Designs shop, but I am hopeful. Thanks for your help!

My daughter named this photo. To me it means night is coming and if we are lucky, the sun will come up tomorrow.


                                      GOOD NIGHT AND GOOD LUCK




Please take a moment to check out my work at NancyOliviaDesigns.com. Any comments and advice would be appreciated. Like all artists, I want to sell some work so I can buy more supplies - ink, paper and jewelry making materials. A new Fire Mountain Gems catalog arrived and I can't wait to place an order!

Messy Photography Studio

Don't you love how artist's and crafts people's studios are so very neat and organized in all the magazine pictures? That is not real life. I have been printing and framing art for three shows here in Connecticut. It is a messy process.

These prints are being considered for framing. 


 This frame had to be drilled with my dremmel for me to put hooks into.


I am participating in three shows that run for the entire month of August. Work has been delivered to the Dreamtime show at the Gallery at the Wauregan, 200 Main St., Norwich, Connecticut. Also two photos have been taken to the Windham Regional Arts Council show at the Windham Hospital Gallery, Mansfield Ave., Willimantic, Connecticut.  Next to frame is art for the Windham Arts August Pop-up-Gallery at the Thompson Library,  934 Riverside Drive (Route 12), North Grosvenordale, CT

Making Life Easier


My friend, Carol, uses a salad spinner and her salads are fantastic. I am now the proud owner of an Oxo salad spinner. No more watery salads. This was on sale at Kohls, plus I had a 15% off coupon. And I paid for it with Kohls Cash!
