A Vote of Thanks

I am still so new to this social networking business –

  • launched facebook page June 2011 www.facebook.com/SebaDizajn

  • started blogging July 2011 – here!

  • opened a Twitter account 10 days ago @SebaDizajn

I am learning more and more everyday, and loving it.  What I have found the most interesting is the vast, possibly endless amount of free information and advice that is available on-line, it’s amazing.  There are so many helpful websites and blogs for me to refer to, I just have to find them!  The links to links and tweets to links are constantly being updated, and I have spent more time on-line this last week than I ever imagined that I would (or could).

This very short post is my thankyou to everybody offering advice, answering questions and generally sharing ideas and advice just because they can.

For anyone that is new a newcomer to Social Media I would like to recommend any of the 30 Challenges offered by Nikki Pilkington, I have learnt so much in a short time from these well pitched and easily followed Challenges, an additional thanks to you Nikki.

Nepali school girls, eager to learn.
This photo is of school girls eager to learn in Nepal, in my previous job we raised funds for two additional classrooms for this school in the Kathmandu valley, enabling village girls to continue their education without having to leave home.We are about to launch our Seba Dizajn Christmas shopping website and 5% of all sales will go towards purchasing school uniforms for village girls whose families are unable to afford the uniform.

Oh what the tweet have I done now?

Without much idea of how, what or why I have launched myself into the unknown tweeting world… have found some jewellery designers to follow which should be interesting – maybe I can learn some Twitter tricks from them?  Have posted my first ‘tweet’ and I still don’t know what I’m doing. 

It’s a funny thing,  a very strange feeling that I can’t quite describe. I feel like such a fuddy duddy – especially using that expression! I feel like I am at the bottom of the class of Twitter 101 and I guess the only way is up from here.  Tomorrow’s mission is to dedicate some time to learning about how Twitter can help people find Seba Dizajn on-line and how I can share more of the fabulous filigree work that we are creating here in Korcula.   I can’t wait for the 30 Day Twitter Challenge, a la Nikki Pilkington, am thinking this is where I will learn the most. 

In the mean time if you are ‘in the know’ and want to follow my progress into the tweeting world I have signed up as Ruth Seba @ SebaDizajn.  Would love to share the journey, it’s a lonely road when we travel alone…. come follow me.  I have chosen this beautiful filigree bead with coral details as our profile picture. 

Remember if you would like to see the full Seba Dizajn collection you can find us on www.facebook.com/SebaDizajn where new content is being added daily. 

Cheers, Ruth

 

 

Thanks for the Gorgeous Filigree Jewellery

Am a little behind on the 30 Day Challenge, one missing post from last week – ‘Testimonials’… post some positive feedback from a customer.
Am very happy to post the following, via Ms Cottrill, Upper Hutt, New Zealand

Thank you for my gorgeous filigree ‘Stephanie’. I love that it is unique and made especially for me from an ancient craft in an amazing location and winged all the way to New Zealand. Seriously thinking about getting my ears pierced now! Another happy customer!

A special order from Seba Dizajn, feels great to be sharing our unique traditional filigree jewellery with the world. 
From Croatia to New Zealand, fantastic!
In the beginning
