Saying that H is busy with something is like saying that the bee is buzzing. This time the scope of her industry is beyond friends and family–she’s selling wares in a local alt venue downtown. There’s a yearly “Duck the Malls” bazaar put on by area artists/crafters and hosted by the Olympia Film Society, and the old theater gets turned into a bit of a marketplace for a few hours.

H has been in “make” mode for a month or so now and has about 300 assorted jewelry objects she’s fashioned. We uploaded pictures to her website last night, so you can check them out if you want. We’re still trying to figure out pricing ranges.

Talk nerdy to me: I built the site with WordPress and used Picasaweb to hold the pictures, pulling an RSS feed from Picasaweb to populate the pages. The problem is that I haven’t figured out how to exclude the meta-data from the feed, so it’s not as clean as I’d like. I could edit the CSS to make the text invisible, but I’d really like to even disable the embedded hyperlinks on the pictures so that it wasn’t so easy to accidentally wind up on the Picasaweb site. Advice welcome.
