Ha! Back to the gym and coding
Etiquetas: clothes, custom, customize, customizer, gym, program, programming, test, tool, web application 4 comentariosYup! I finally joined the gym next door and hopefully will be going every week morning (ehem)
So... just looked in my closet and I don't have any cool (or at all) sport clothes. See what I found in Etsy.
Sellers, left to right, top to bottom: phippsart, designsbyamber, InspiredByMe, gaiaconceptions, Ahpeele, HerbanDevi
Apart from that, I have been all week (and many more weeks) working on a web application to customize items (hey, I'm a bored Computer Science kid). What does this mean? Well, I created a sample page where customers can customze the colors of my silk earrings. For now this is all up for testing, and as soon as I finish the main page and shop pages, I will ask around to see if any other seller would like to have their items here to make their customers life easier =)
Please take a look at it here: http://customizer.zendfree.com
Play with it all you want, it is only a test page. What do you think? As a buyer: would you like to use it? As a seller: would it be useful for your business?
Thanks a lot! I need input/feedback on this tool to see if it has any future, if sellers are willing to use it, before I start building the administration part. (The graphic part still needs some improvement but I'm on it lol)
Oh, and also need a NAME for it! So far I named it customizer, but it doesn't sound cool enough :P - Help me!
And finally, one more thing. I love to design catalogs, covers, etc, so I thought I could transform the monthly newsletter into an online magazine to combine both my passions: design and fashion. I'm not interesting enough to write more than 2 - 3 pages so... anyone wants to collaborate with an article related to handmade and if possible: fashion? Anything could fit in: kids, decoration, fahsion, beauty, .... Contact me if you want to help!
*EDITED*
Ooops forgot one thing! If you live outside Europe and would like to get one of my items for Christmas, tomorrow is the last day I can ship it and assure you it will arrive on time. Please make your Christmas shopping by 4th December.

Good luck sticking to your workout routine! The customizer is a neat idea - I'll look forward to seeing you polish it up more :D
