I am beginning to get my business off the ground

Journal Entry: Wed Jul 23, 2008, 1:17 PM

I'm not talking about my internet business because it is at a stand still. I am talking about the increase in sales just by people who visit my home or through acquaintances. Today I sold some earrings that I didn't even have a chance to post on the Internet and yesterday I sold a autumn fairy doll to the person who took the photos of my work.

I gave Jessica the crystal moon earrings for the photos even though she was quite willing to do the photos free. Tomorrow she will photograph the dolls I did for the neighbor girls, some items we missed in the last photo shoot and some pictures of me with my musical instruments.

It may take some time before she can email them to me but hopefully by next week they will be posted.

OMG!!! *rolls over and dies* Could you give me some tips on how to get started with a Celtic lap harp? I have been wanting so badly to learn, but have no idea where to start. I played the flute in band in junior high and high school, in both the concert and marching bands, and am currently learning the celtic tin whistle, in c and d, but its a process as I can't find a whole lot of sheet music. I also am learning some rhythms on my djembe drum. I've always wanted to try some string instruments.

Like I played flute in band when I was in highschool. I also have a flute.

I am self taught with harp but this is the book I learned from [link]
Mel Bays basic harp for beginners was very easy for me to learn from.

I did do a farmers market on 4th of July. I don't have a car so it's hard to go places to sell my work. Most of what I sell is through word of mouth from people who purchase my creations.

I've been looking at harps and found one that I think I am going to get for my birthday,[link] but am completely ignorant when it comes to buying a harp. What kind of harp do you have, can you give me any pointers, and how does the harp in the link I send you look? I think I would be getting a deal, as it seems inexpensive in comparison to what I have seen elsewhere, but I really have no idea.
