500 sales!!

Great news for the Etsy shop, tonight it reaches its first 500 sales!
They have been 2 years and a half really hard, with an incredibile amount of hours dedicated to working, 13-15hs per day, to creating many orders, each one personalized for a customer, ideating always new models and creating the prototypes, looking for new materials and testing them, elaborating descriptions as much as possible complete and clear for helping the client to find what he/she was looking for, doing almost daily long waits at the post offices, offering my best customer care in the daily contact with customers but also handling and solving many problems, studying the statistical data, the online marketing, the digital photography, the methods for online payments and worldwide shipping, often working also during the night for meeting the needs of the overseas buyers in different time zones and helping the customers that ask for rush orders!
Two years and a half stressful but also amazing and rich of emotions and contacts with wonderful people from all over the world! Thank you to you all, to all customers and visitors of the shop, the followers of this blog and twitter, the facebook fans and friends, the Etsy Italia team friends!! PassionArte will continue to grow for you and with you!

First Etsy birthday, featurings and other surprises for my shop!

Happy birthday to my shop!! Yesterday was my first birthday on Etsy, I was excited! One year ago, Etsy was a wonderful and unexpected discover for me: I always loved crafting with all material but I never made it like a job! I really worked hard during this year and finally the results are coming! It’s a big emotion shipping overaseas one of my creations, a cake topper that will make smile a bride and groom and their guests or a child for his birthday, or a person who receive it as gift! I would thanks to Etsy, to my clients and to my friends of the Etsy Italia Team!

Last weeks was also full of surprises! I received many orders, especially for wedding and birthday cake toppers and also I'm featured on the Storque (the Etsy blog) and I was three time on the Etsy front page!!!

The Birdies wedding cake toppers are on the Storque:





Also the Sheep toothpick holder was on FP,



And tonight the Front Page was for the Frog and water lilies rack!




I want to say thank you to Relydesign, Gasometri and Scaccoalleregine who insert my creations on their beautiful treasury that was gone on Front Page! Please, visit their gorgeus shops clicking on each picture!

My handpainted funny kitties sketchbook for the Etsy Italian Team monthly challenge!





...just completed the creation for the February Etsy Italia Team challenge! The theme was "Moleskine". The monthly challenge is a funny chance to find new ways for expressing our creativity with themes, colors and materials different than those we usually use! So I've hand drawing and painted with acrylic colors this notebook! The shape of the window is cut-out and all sides of the cover have a drawing. I'm happy about the result, the cats behind the window look like a funny amazing gang!

This notebook is available on my shop or contacting me to passionarte.handmade(at)yahoo.it! Bring fun on your desktop or in your pocket/bag!




Have a look at all beatiful creations that taked part to this challenge, on the Etsy Italia Team blog!

My cute and funny miniature scene with chubby Beach Chicken and Baby chick, featured

"Where are you going mum?!", says the baby chick perplexed!
It's a funny and cute miniature scene, created with colorful modelling clay, left unglazed (only the sea is painted with mat varnish), full of micro details: pink polka dots bikini painted with acrylic colors (pearled pink), flippers, mask with real plastic “lens” and snorkel, sand castle, beach toys (shovels, plane sifter, pail) realized with extreme precision and patience!
Moreover the sand and eight micro shells are real and natural.
You just cannot smile when you look at this scene! Collect all miniature scenes I’m listing! Use it as a decor, a funny and cute gift or as a small cake topper (in this case, please do not put it directly on the surface of the cake).
It comes in a nice gift box. Measurement: base is approx 6 cm x 8 cm; Beach Chicken is 2,8 cm tall.
Click here to purchase it, or contact me (link in this page, at right); if you want another personalized miniature for you or for a special friend, let me know your ideas!

Cute and sweet Sleeping mouse swaying in a hammock, miniature sculpture made of clay

I'm a member of the Etsy Italia Team that have the goal to gather Italian sellers and to promote Italian Handmade over the World. On the Etsy Italia Team blog, it's started the first challenge! The theme is "Seven deadly sins"! It's a difficult theme but all the creations are very beautiful!

I have created a representation of the sloth (acedia) with a cute and sweet Sleeping mouse swaying in a hammock, miniature sculpture made of colorful modelling clay, left unglazed; the hammock is made of soft fabric hanged on a wire support. All pieces (blue flower-hat, mouse, hammock, wire support) are removable. He isn't soooo cute??!!

If you think that your life is too much frenetic, relax looking at this very cute idle mousy! He is having a snooze on his hammock in a green garden! Close your eyes and let yourself gently sway like him......... :)

This sculpture can be also used as funny and original cake topper!

Measurements: about 10 x 7,5 x 5 cm (4 x 3 x 2 inches); mouse is 4 x 3 x 3 cm (1,6 x 1,2 x 1,2 inches).

Contact me to purchase it!

Last beautiful featurings for my creations

Last week I had some beautiful surprises that have bring many visits to my etsy shop! I was, for the first time (thank you, RedFenix!), on the Front Page, the Etsy's home page with my "Silly shark attack - 3D bookmark in gift package" from my 3D bookmarks collection!

In the same day I was featured in the Storque (the Etsy blog) with my "Blue flowers decoration" (for PC monitor, tv, dresser, door, lamp etc.)!

And few days before I was also featured on the Etsy Italia Team Blog with my funny "FatCat"!



La scorsa settimana ci sono state alcune belle sorprese per il mio etsy shop che hanno portato molte nuove visite! Sono stata recensita, per la prima volta, (grazie RedFenix!), nella Front Page, la pagina principale di Etsy con il "Silly shark attack - 3D bookmark in gift package" che fa parte della collezione di segnalibri 3D!
Nello stesso giorno le mie creazioni sono state recensite nello Storque (il blog di Etsy) con i "Blue flowers decorations" (decorazioni per il monitor del Pc, della tv, per la casa)!
Mentre, alcuni giorni prima ero nel blog dell'Etsy Italia Team con il "Gatto Cicciotto"!
