Thanks to the help of my web developer (who is oh so tech savvy), the shopping cart system is now in working order.  I have tested it myself and it appears to be working properly on my end; however, please let me know if you notice anything silly going on with any aspect of my website (check-out system or otherwise).  It is extremely important to me to have the website functioning smoothly.  Your help is always appreciated!

In the meantime, I am off to make Moussaka for dinner (it’s a Greek dish).  Traditionally it’s made with lamb, but of course there will be none of that in the Brown household!!!  So, I’ll be substituting lentils instead combined with eggplant, tomatoes, and a variety of yummy deliciousness!  It’s my first time making it so wish me luck!  If it’s a winner, perhaps I’ll share the recipe with you . . . we’ll see . . . I’ll let you know in the morning.

Have a marvelous Monday evening!

Pal Snoozing

As if it could get any worse, I’ve discovered more problems with my website . . . at the moment, I CANNOT:
. . . Add new jewelry . . .

And YOU CANNOT:
. . . Purchase any jewelry . . .

Sounds like a problem, don’t you think?!?!  WELL, OF COURSE IT IS!  All of this is happening because my website was recently transferred to a new platform within the hosting company and now some of my site’s functionality has been compromised.  Things “behing the scenes” need to be reconfigured in order for everything to run smoothly again.  Rest assured, I’m working on it!  Please be patient during this difficult and trying time . . . I really appreciate it!  It is my hope that these glitches are only temporary . . . I’ll be in touch!

In the meantime, I’m going to take a snooze . . . this whole ordeal has worn me out!

Technical Difficulties ~ Woe Is Me

Some of you may have noticed that my website was down today for quite some time.  In fact, some of you probably wondered if I am even in business anymore!  Well, rest assured that I’m still here and Painted Beauty Jewelry isn’t going anywhere. 

The trouble lies with my current web hosting company . . .

I spent far too much time on the phone with the company today trying to figure this whole ordeal out.  I kind of felt like a dog chasing its own tail . . . hmmmm . . . sounds like fun, but NO, NOT REALLY!!!!!  ANYHOW, after going in circles for what seemed like forever, I managed to come to the critical conclusion that I need to find myself a new hosting company and PRONTO! 

Why am I telling you all of this?  In the event you notice the website is not functioning properly, or it is down altogether, please know that I am working on it!  I’d like to thank you in advance for being patient as I make this necessary change . . . I truly appreciate it!

I know . . . the website is in dire need of some updating.  Rest assured, you won’t have to wait much longer.  Since deciding to keep my wholesale jewelry completely separate from my retail jewelry, I have really put designing jewelry for the website on the back burner.  Now, without further delay, I am working like a busy bee to produce some delightful new creations for all to see, love, and (hopefully) buy!  I’m having so much fun creating one-of-a-kind pieces and I hope you enjoy them too.  I’ll keep you posted, but please be sure to check the website often because you never know when something new and wonderful may appear . . . you wouldn’t want to miss out, would you???
