I’m in a small hurry, but I want to show you guys Neptune…and yesterday I made another pair of sticks that I think I’ll call Translation. I have to do my daily listing…and I have a few things to do before that, so really…I have to hurry. Please just enjoy these pictures for today, then. […]
I think I’ve just made a pair of hairsticks that I’m really happy with; they’re black and white and teal-blue, with short (about 1.25 inches, I’d say, maybe 1.5) dangles. I’d like to show them to you but I JUST made them so they haven’t cured yet, and I don’t dare touch them. I can’t […]
I realized recently that I didn’t have many natural (not dyed) bone sticks in my shop a little while ago, so I decided to make some more pairs on ivory coloured bone, and an interesting design happened. I used cylindrical shell beads that are *identical* in colour to the bone, and square Celestial crystal beads […]
Found a new way to convey the actual weight of my hairsticks in my listing descriptions. I now weigh them before listing, say what weight they are in grams, and add that a large egg weighs (approximately) 70 grams, so people can compare the weight of the stick to something they are used to, something […]
I’ll be brief, today. I got my You Stink Soap order, which I promised to ‘review’. It turned out great…I got 3 solid perfumes, 3 lip glosses, and 1 natural deodorant in the ‘Stinky Hippie’ scent. Stinky Hippie smells like a freshly mown lawn…it’s just WONDERFUL, though quite unisex.
I’m happy with everything. The lip gloss […]
I done it. Autumn Sea is complete, and I really like the contents. The toppers contain apple coral, mosaic shell, red lip shell heishi, natural shell heishi, and whole seashells of a type I cannot name. (Because I do not know the name.)
Everything in this set is natural…no colouring at all has been done to […]
I’ve decided; I’m not in a rush. The shop can develop at its own pace, and so can this blog. When I have something to post, I’ll post, and otherwise I will leave it alone. It’s impossible to make worthwhile entries when I am not busy with shop stuff…making and so on.
To make it easier, […]
It’s impossible right now to update this blog regularly because I haven’t even at atom of creative energy at this time, so I have nothing to tell. I do have an ‘industrial’ necklace idea, and I also want to finish that crocheted lace choker and earring set, and I also have an idea for a […]
It’s very hard to update the shop blog when I’m not at all feeling like making hairsticks or other jewellery, as I can’t talk about shopping or Etsy stuff all the time and when I don’t feel like making things, I don’t feel like talking about making things, either.
I think it’s unfortunate that ‘making things’ […]
There aren’t many shades of blue that look good with olive green. But then again, I really dislike olive green, so that may not be a fair statement. Olive green and sky blue, for example? Putrid.
However, I did manage to find a darker shade of blue that goes pretty nicely with this olive-ish shade of […]
