ETSY - Shop Clean Up

For those who have been asking - I am cleaning up my ETSY shop (so it will be down for a few days - I am out of stock/need to refill and also need to post a lot of more 'fall' stuff).  It's funny, because it seems that my customers don't actually shop via ETSY and instead email me directly about an ETSY posting.  I'm not really complaining (cause I will happily take your purchases any way that makes you comfy) but for those who have inquired, new stuff is coming your way soon - with a small preview below.  But for now, don't fear the ETSY people ;)

Unique Los Angeles - December 5th & 6th (this weekend!!!)

The holiday season is upon us (aka time to go shopping if you haven't already started) so why not skip the mega-stores and support independent design!  Unique Los Angeles makes it so easy to discover great holiday finds, with over 300 artists/designers/merchants, at reasonable prices, free drinks, and all under one (HUGE) roof.  I went last year with AZ and SBI, and we all got such great stuff that we are going again together this year (YAY family day).  

When: December 5&6, 11am - 6pm both days
Where: California Market Center (110 East 9th Street)
Cost: $10, with partial proceeds going to the local non-profit 826LA!  Entry gets you an exclusive-to-the-show limited edition tote bag, a free drink ticket, unlimited re-entry for both days, and access to our great lineup of free workshops. (children 12 and under are free)

Hope to see you there!

NEW ETSY LISTING: Cloisonne, Opal, & Amazonite Asymmetrical Gold Necklace

This is a necklace that I have been working on for a while and it finally just took shape (YAY) and is now up in my shop.  I got these amazing blue cloisonne beads a long time ago, but had a lot of trouble incorporating them.  The shape was harder to work work than I realized, and then once I put attached the coral and pearl pieces (which I actually really liked) I become stuck.  I decided that something asymmetrical would balance out the bold color explosion, and the pale turquoise color gives it more of a nautical feel (which is really different for me).  Overall I am pleased with it's outcome, and hope that someone can enjoy wearing it.  More pics in my ETSY shop! 

NEW ETSY LISTING: Amethyst and Pearl Multi-Knotted Necklace

Just posted a new ETSY listing :)  This piece is far more delicate than chunky, has three different sizes of gold filled chain, and is very versatile if you want more or less knotting.  Chain can be un/wound so that you have more/less give or it can be worn in it's more organic shape.  More pics in my ETSY shop! 

My ETSY Store now open (YAY)

I am so pleased to announce that my ETSY shop is now (finally) open for business.  I still have a few kinks to work out (like how to bring the cost of shipping down internationally yet still provide a tracking number) and of course how to get people to buy things!  But either way, I am happy to finally have an online shopping destination available.  Because of the new shop I also restructured the blog (which I am still working on - because nothing is ever easy).  I hope the new layout meets everyone's approval and thanks so much for all of the continued support!
