New Moo business cards & postcards!

I ♥ Moo. The postcards are for personal use or as bonus gifts for larger orders on Etsy, and the business cards are of course for my Etsy shop!

Buttons!

They are finally finished! I plan on posting some to Etsy soon.

Pumpkins and Sales and Love

I am terribly disorganized these days and have neglected to blog about many things that I meant to. Maybe I will get to them later - in the meantime, I would like to let you know that there are many new shiny things in my shop, and even better, I have a sale on right now! I lost my job a couple weeks ago due to restructuring and don't have a new one yet. What better time to hold a sale? It's a great time to snap up something for yourself or buy a few gifts for your loved ones for the holidays. Hop on over to the shop to check it out.

New Items!!

I've been a terrible updater lately, on this blog & my Etsy shop. So sorries!! So here are some lovely things coming to the shop this week ... I should hopefully have those last promised items into the shop this week as well ... as long as work and everything else doesn't kill me before then.

"We'll put the lonesome on the shelf"

I've got some new stuff for the shop, I just haven't found the time yet to photograph and post it! I'm holding some of it in the photo (I know, I promised no more bad photos ... sorry!). The pearly ones in the back are two pretty pretty anklets, the dark one which you can't really see is a nifty men's bracelet made with dark wood beads and jet glass leaves, and the one in front is made with square salwag seed beads and little turquoise stone beads. I especially like that bracelet!

In other news ... I was freaking something awful about this thing with my friend. I spent last night convincing myself not to call him and trying to chill, although I was wildly unsuccessful. In chilling: I did manage not to call. Part of my worries was that he would just disappear. It's happened before. But he didn't!! So I'm feeling much less paranoid now. It's good. We talked on the phone tonight and it was nice. And we have plans for after Christmas. Can't wait can't wait.

Tis the season to be ill ... boo!!

That is hopefully the worst photo you will ever have to endure on this blog. I won't even try to explain or excuse it... I just feel entries without pictures are kind of lackluster. Anyhoo.

I'm icky sick!! Some evil sort of cold monster has taken over my immune system and seems determined to stick around. Anyhow, I wanted to give a little update on what's coming in the shop, and I thought I'd throw some recommendations your way while I was here.

My picks of the week:

The film "The Go-Getter." Watch it! Enjoy! It's refreshing as it's not a Hollywood cookie-cutter script, and it's really sweet. Truly. I look forward to watching it again.

The book "delible" by Anne Stone. It's a heavy subject; basically the story of girl's sister who goes missing. I thought it would be depressing and dark, but I found it sweet and heartbreaking. It's a pretty quick read too. I really enjoyed it.

This bear toque! It makes me think of Tank Girl and Zombie Hunters. Wicked awesome! I want one!!

As for things coming to my shop...

The glass pearls on the left of my shitastic photo are for some anklets (I got some pretty pink & peach seed beads for them as well) and the earrings are some shiny chandeliers I quite like which will be in the shop just as soon as I get proper photos of them. I'm still recovering from school, holiday staff parties and this germ. I still have one exam to go as well :(
Sad pandas. Anyhow, I do hope to really get going in a bigger way with jewelry soon.
xxxo.

Snow White and Rose Red

I love that fairytale! Although, you know, the bear didn't *have* to turn into a prince. But, you know, that's just my opinion :)
Anyhow, the girls inspired two anklets I made and listed in the shop, to be found here and here.
They're lovely and oh-so-affordable!
Also, I made a to-die-for long necklace with dark peacock pearls and black glass beads. It's just the thing to wear to all the holiday parties you've got coming up! At least that' s what I'd be doing with it if I allowed myself to keep it. It should be up in the shop between Wednesday & Friday.
Here's a sneak peek.
