Supernova

Wanted to share a great new seller on etsy, Belleness, who runs Supernova.

I love the green in this bracelet, it works so well with the clear beads and copper findings. And it has butterflies!


After the above statement, you might have guessed I like butterflies, so I simply adore this necklace. The necklaces I usually wear are pretty simple, like this one. If I only wasn't supposed to be saving money, I would seriously buy this.

You can even buy prints of her photography, look at Belle's Flickr for all of it. You can choose any, on different size formats. I like the colours and perspective in this photo of a watercolour set.

Cute Finds

Been busy since my last post, making and designing things for my new website, and also catching up on college work. As it is too hot to do much work today, here's a little update.


Aren't these earrings so pretty! Made by the owner of I'm Your Present (a shop I love looking at), these earrings are so girly and fun.



What a great idea, esp as a gift for a knitter. Bugtussle Yarn has made the yarn the wrapping, with a secret surprise inside! Even comes with needles!


I love this cupcake necklace by Acrylicana, i'm sure most of you crafters and craft lovers know her work, combining funky illustrations with colourful jewellery!

Updates

Thought i'd give you guys an idea of what I have been up to, craftywise since I took a break. I made 100 charms and 20 pairs of earrings for The Sampler, which should go out in August's Sampler.


I recieved some fab goodies from my other partner in the GMT swap, I love these spool dolls!
I also recieved a tonne of american candy, and some cupcake mix, so of course I made cupcakes! They were strawberry flavoured and so delicious!

I also recieved from my cupcake swap partner, from whom I also got lots of lovely goodies, like these sweet themed button earrings and rings.
I did 2 updates to my shop, not very big, but I did make some cute things. I esp like this necklace.
I even updated my etsy shop with some handmade goods! Like this little eskimo doll!

And I made a holder for all my stock, a tutorial can be found at Craftster, here.

This is a sneak peek of some jewellery to come. I found a great new supplier, and made a large order, so have been playing with all my new things!


I even started to do some illustrations, most turned out awful, only this one was worth showing. You can find out more details at my personal crafty journal.

Cute Finds

Now don't get too excited, I am going to be posting, but probably not everyday until things calm down with me. I find it rather funny that I get more hits when I am not posting though :P At least I have an audience to come back to, I hope anyway!

Onto the features...

Normally I am not a fan of skull related things, but this ring is super cool! The colours go well, and the craftsmanship of the wire wrapped parts is amazing! By Catherinette Rings


I love the jewellery in Spiral Stephie's etsy, it is all so bright and colourful, which I just adore!


Loopsies has the cutest little "Dolly Pops" in her shop. I love little dolls, and sweet ones like these make me want to squeal with delight, they are too cute!

Sorry Guys

I think I need a break from blogging for a while, perhaps a few weeks, but I will be back! Things are a bit tough emotionally atm, and already have enough to do,with organizing swaps, shop stuff and family, so...

Hope you all understand.

Sorry!

Oh dear, I forgot the main feature yesterday. I'm sorry, things have been a bit hectic round here, we got a new computer at the weekend because our old one was all frazzled and slow, and between setting it up, and making sales, going to the post office, appointments and some lazyness, I didn't update. I shall make todays posts nice and long though. :)

Beyond Wonderland

Beyond Wonderland is an original jewellery line, based on the adventures of Alice in Wonderland. In their etsy, they have lots of fabulous items, laser cut from acyrlic, adorned with ribbon and gems!


This pendant can be a ring too, and features the Beyond Wonderland Logo, based on the White Rabbit.

I love these "cheshire chain" necklaces, modelled off chains, with a cheeky cheshire cat hiding in the middle!

Cute Finds

Wanted to share a necklace I made the other day, purely for me which makes a change! You can see my post over @ Craftster here. If people are interested I might make some to sell, I did a cute reproduction of the vintage image, and you can have any colours/sayings you like!

Sweet, summery bobby pins, made from vintage acrylic cabs, found at Smitten Kitten!


This top looks really light and airy, perfect for the upcoming summer season! By Trioon
