my curtains find a new purpose!

so besides brightening my day and keeping the peeping toms of 9th avenue away, my [favorite and only] ikea curtains are doing triple duty as the newest "display" for some of my pieces!

these babies are the ikea stockholm blad - get your very own here! i also covet this matching chair...sigh...

as promised...

i've added some new pieces today!

• finally, another hair flower - just in time for spring!
• the darling earrings, my boyfriend really likes these and i have to admit i'm also sort of obsessed! be forewarned though, i'm down to my last three pink/coral mystery teardrop stones, sighhhhh
• the jumble ring - a chunkier ring than my others and really earthy and fun

Anddddd.....my 14k gold filled and sterling silver wire just came in from another etsy seller today! The lady ring and BOWie ring will now be made with these to ensure the best of quality for all of you! I've also decided to make the BOWie ring in a thicker gauge for those of you worried about the fragility of the original one, so keep an eye out for that!

a weekend's worth of work...

saturday was spent scouring my favorite bead stores for the perfect piggies and chains to make these custom pieces -

i think they turned out pretty well, but fingers crossed for the reviews from the piggy lovers who requested them!

the weekend also produced the following pieces:

• aggy earrings - i actually made the first pair of these as a birthday present to my friend agnes, i loved them so much i wanted to share them
• throwbackk earrings - these seem 1920s-ish to me, maybe art deco? maybe i made that up? who knows - i still adore them and hope you do too.
  
• sparkly - simple and feminine
• bamboo-zled - trying to incorporate more silver jewelry into my "line" (ha!) hope you guys like this one

there's still lots more to come! like a ring i forgot to photoraph...whoops!

welcome!

hey guys! welcome to the first post on my blog :) this is just to keep people updated on my jewelry making, hopefully it won't contain too many boring details about my life...

so here are a few things!

• apologies for only having one of most of my items, i'm not sure what people will like and won't like so i only make one of each thing. please feel free to message me any requests for pieces that have already been sold. i also really appreciate feedback, so if there's a certain style you'd like to see more of, please lt me know!
  
• my head is abuzzing with ideas, it just takes me a long time to execute them. i sometimes spend up to 2 hours on a single piece/pair of earrings trying to get them perfect, so stay tuned for cool new things!
• this also explains why i don't make items in bulk, by the time i'm done with one, i want to move on to my next idea!
• i definitely have more plans for hair accessories, let me know if there's anything you'd like to see
• i've tried to lower my shipping costs as much as possible, i hate paying for shipping so i know you probably do too!
• etsy charges fees and so does paypal, it really eats into my wallet *pout*

well that's my rant! in an ideal world, i could sit around all day making jewelry, playing with my future french bulldog, but until then i will rush home from work and focus on my craft into the wee hours of the night for you lovely folks!
