Evening all. These earrings I love, and I hope the recipient will too. Specially made to co-ordinate with a necklace I gifted her, these are Swarovski crystal and sterling silver. They sparkle deliciously, and are one of my fave colours. Pink! Gosh I hope she likes em, lol!

I know, it's been forever since I've posted, and forever since I even glanced at others blogs... sorry. I've got round to a few, but not many. Life has been hectic, and I've only just got round to getting things made too. I will try harder to visit blogs, or even reply to replies here (lol), but time is limited right now, and I'm exhausted!

Still love you all though. :)

Update; She loved 'em! :)

Small post today, as I'm running out of time. Again, lol. Misi store updated with a couple of new pieces, one of them my first male oriented piece.

Not sure if I'm making more male things or not. Time will tell.

Omg, I've not even got this in a store yet, or finished what I'm doing.. but I gotta show my personal collection of rainbows!!! I was stunned at this image, very pleased it's turned out the way it has... amazing!!! If you click the image, you should be able to see it larger. :)

Looks at the info / Nav bar at the right of the screen....

Woot! New Misi store opens today! Yay!

Only got earrings in there so far, but more will come in time. Just pleased to get it up and running! :D Excitement! LOL. Going for a coffee now, which is well deserved.

Clicky the linky!! Go on, I dare you!

These earrings are sterling silver with Swarovski crystal and fluorite beads. Absolutely stunning in the sunlight, as this pic shows. I was blessed with the light that day!


The pendant necklace above is so far removed from what I usually do, but I had so much fun putting it together! Time consuming, but worth it I think. Silver plate chain and pendant, freshwater pearls and Swarovski crystals, and a pair of earrings to match. Hopefully for sale soon in my Misi store, which I'm in the process of setting up.

Just a little view of the new gift packaging I have available. Most items would come with just the standard black pillow box, with white tissue paper wrapping inside. If requested, this is the gift wrapping available for a modest cost. (probably £1 extra)

Far nicer than the standard boxes I have been using, and a little more creative and different to the norm..? I think so. ;)

Quick upload of something new. It's late, I'm tired, and I've been working on things all day. I'll maybe show more tomorrow, eh?

These are river jasper earrings, with sterling silver earwires and a sterling silver enhancer bail pendant.

I'm not sure if I should use a chain or other beads with the pendant, or just leave it as is... I'll decide before I set up for sale.

Really like this stone, it's unusual. I still have some left, so I might use some with some freshwater pearls, and maybe shell pieces too... all in the same river/water theme.

Okay, this is one to note. Yesterday, 6 Apr 09, I had my first website sale. From a friend at the forum, and she ordered one of my fave pieces. I still can't believe I've had a sale, and it all went through with NO problems at all.

It's sitting here, just waiting to be posted tomorrow. Done up all fancy and pretty, with my new packaging...

Holy c**p batman, I've had a sale..!!!

Well, it's now April. How time flies! This week is really busy for me with overtime in my 'paying job', which is good I suppose; the extra cash will come in handy now that the contracted hours have been cut. But still... it means I have no time for anything remotely crafty, so things are on a back burner for the moment.

But, I wanted to ask if anyone had the same problem as me. I really wish I hadn't started wearing things for self promotion. It's a good way to get your things out there and being seen by people, but I have totally fallen in love with a pair of rose quartz and sterling silver earrings. Totally. They're chaos wrapped like the carnelian ones in my previous post, but smaller and faceted. I'll take a pic eventually when I get time and good light.

I will sell them. Grudgingly. Lol.

Anyone sympathise..?
