I’ve been working diligently at updating my site to include a more robust shopping experience.  My goal is to utilize my site for my boutique style pieces and use etsy for the more fashion style pieces.

The php in zencart has seriously kicked my rear. BUT… I think I am winning the battle.

Check out the new shopping site here at shinyadornments.com/shopping.htm My etsy site is here  shinyadornments.etsy.com

Its going to take me a few more days to complete, and then move pieces to their new location. And boy won’t it be satisfying when I’m done. :-)
