Who's into BPAL enough to talk on forums?

I ask because I'm hoping someone who is already an established member of the community will give a pointer to Cosmo's Curiosities at Etsy. I don't want to reinvent the wheel and don't really need a new hobby, but I think that my altered Altoids boxes and BPAL imps are a good match. One should feel no obligation to respond if pimping is discomfiting.

pimping is not discomfiting, but i'm only on one forum, really. i would be happy to pimp, though, when i'm back (i'm thinking i'll combine it with a re-post of my sale) (maybe even saying "hey! this person is local to me! if you buy something from both of us, you could get them at the same time!" if you think that might work for you).

oh! Certainly. I think that's a lovely idea :) Thank you kindly

Here you go! (http://www.bpal.org/index.php?showtopic=31857) Your very own topic in the Retail Therapy section. Hope it helps!

thank you thank you!

durn it! Won't let me see because I'm not part of the community (can you cut and paste?)

Good timing! I just prettied up my Etsy site a wee bit and added more original altoid tin shaped objects. Here's hoping, because I'm not great with patient :)

Shiny! Cosmo's Curiosities has beautiful tins swirled with liquid sculpey, just the perfect size for imps. Looks like most of them are beautifully-modified Altoids tins... I've used similar tins to keep imps and even a 5ml or two safe for air travel, but never any so pretty...

Cute dragons, too!

You really have some neat stuff. I need to buy from you when I have cash monies.

Just set up my own Etsy account... I had one as Shadesong, but chose a more item-appropriate store name - Slide.

It would not let me list "your mom" as one of my favorite materials. *pout*

Snorf. Oh well :) They are a bit limiting in their format, it's true.
Thanks again. Let's hope.
One of the many frustrations I have with not selling tins as quickly as I like (besides the not having cashy money as a result) is that I have to sell some in order to make more, if you know what I mean. It'd suck to have 50 finished pieces that don't sell and are just collecting dust.
I appreciate the thought of wanting to buy my stuff. That means something

*nods* I have *most* of the art supplies I need, but not *all*, and I need to do more writing so I can afford to get the stuffs I need to make shinies, then I will need to sell shinies to make more shinies. I have more ideas than I have budget.
