Crochet Philippines: March 2011

Do you want to have your very own Internet Business Card?

Through my Work-At-Home course under Internet Guru Jomar Hilario, I found this new site where you can make a profile and consolidate all your presence on the web in this site! It's called About.me and it's the simplest and fastest way to advertise your web presence, more importantly to drive traffic to your blogs. You can put links to your social network sites like Facebook and Twitter and to your blogs and even let anyone e-mail you (of course, without revealing your e-mail add). It's like your internet business card!

Sick of PTC earnings? Work as a Virtual Assistant instead!

Here are some fascinating profiles I checked out at About.me:

Monday Sunset Necklace

Was inspired by the crochet necklace pattern I found in the magazine that Aunt Cres sent me from the States:

From Crochet World: The Joy of Thread

And looking for color inspiration, this picture I took of the sunset outside the bedroom window of our 16th floor condo made me choose sunny yellow colors for my next project...

Project: For Aunt Cres

My latest customer is my Aunt Cres, a third cousin of my Mom, who lives in California and she ordered 3 necklaces right away!

The first one was the Terya necklace which was inspired by my Mom:

Terya Necklace

She wanted the second one to be patterned after the Dreamcatcher_1 necklace but the colors to be patterned after the violet and amethyst light of St. Germaine and Archangel Zadkiel...
