Red, White, and Blue

With summer just around the corner I thought I'd make some cute piece that any girl can enjoy. They'll look even better come 4th of July. :P As always, these pieces and more can be found at my etsy shop!

 

These flower hair pins are perfect for a day out on the beach! In bright red, blue, and white, dahlia and chrysanthemums rest on silver plated bobby pins. Great for this holiday season or just any occasion.

 

Each hairpin measures 2 1/4" long. You will recieve three hair pins.

Chrysanthemum's represent optimism, fidelity, long life and joy. The flower symbolism associated with the dahlia is dignity, elegance, forever thine.

Easter Eggs!

So I've spent the last few hours making eggs. Started out with boiling eggs and realised I didn't have dye or vinegar. Luckily I never clean my car out so after some digging around in my trunk I found an egg kit and looking in one of the cabinets I found what looks like a bottle of vinegar made in the 70's. I should have taken a picture of that. 

And while I don't post often, I thought it'd be fun to post of few tidbits on easter eggs. :) Taken from wiki:
~*~*~
The egg is a pagan symbol of the rebirth of the Earth in celebrations of spring and was adopted by early Christians as a symbol of the resurrection of Jesus.

There are good grounds for the association between hares (later termed Easter bunnies) and eggs, through folklore confusion between hares' forms (where they raise their young) and plovers' nests.^[3] The mention of eggs left for children in connection with the Germanic goddess Ostara in the supposed Old High German lullaby is considered a literary forgery.

~*~*~

Anyways I wanted to wish everyone a Happy Easter! Hope you're eggs turn out colorful and you get some gifts from the Easter Bunny. :P

The flower symbolism associated with the dahlia is dignity, elegance, forever thine.

I just love the colors, they remind me of the sun and the beach. When I saw them I had to get them and share them with everyone. lol

The Asteroids Galaxy Tour

I'm sure several people have already seen the shortened version on tv, but I loved the song and had to look it up. Found this and had to post it up here. Would love to go to a party like this. :D

The Unicorn and the Lady

So I've been really into unicorns lately and my only explanation is that I finally got some gold chain and ,y cameos finally arrived in the mall. So I'll share some equine love here for all to enjoy. :)



Unicorn and Gold Necklace



 

 

 

 

 

This necklace features a porcelain handpainted unicorn adorned with an ametyhst swarovski crystal as it hangs from a gold plated chain that ends in two 18k gold plated filigree beads. Chain measures 19" long.

 

I love this little guy and only have two left after this one and am seriously considering keeping one, even though I know I shouldn't. XD

 

 

 



Unicorn Cameo Necklace



 

A striking gray and black cameo depicting a unicorn is set in a gunmetal filigree styled setting. Necklace measures 18" long and ends in two black swarovski crystals. Cameo is 18x25mm and measures 2" tall in the setting.

 

 

 

When I saw this cameo, I couldn't pass it by and bought up a few to make some pretty jewelry with. This has already sold over on etsy, but I can make more for anyone interested. :) Actually I need to get on that. ;;;

 

Unicorn Evils Bracelet

This unicorn cameo bracelet is sure to catch someone's eye. A charcoal grey unicorn is set against black as it rests on a gunmetal bracelet. Cameo measures 25x18mm while the bracelet measures about 8 1/2" round.

Inspired by the poem 'And Death Shall Have No Dominion' by Dylan Thomas.

Strapped to a wheel, yet they shall not break;
Faith in their hands shall snap in two,
And the unicorn evils run them through;
Split all ends up they shan’t crack;
And death shall have no dominion.'

Art Post

One day, I've decided, I want to make the doodles I do in class into jewelry, or stickers, or buttons. I love them and find them cute in the non perfect way. :)

I also think they have that unique handmade feel that I love about etsy.I've only found one sight though that makes pendents, etc, but now it's a bit out of my price range and as a still fairly new shop I can't risk not selling them once I invest so much.

But don't you find these cute? The owls are from a second series of cute animals I drew during one of my art classes.

 A cute momma and baby owl perched on a tree branch. And the colored version. <3 The sketches of these look cuter, but to use them I had to scan them and work on them with my laptop.

I'll post the rest later.

Red Rose Necklace

This necklace features a red and black rose cameo that rests on a gunmetal rope style setting. The chain measures 20" long while the pendant itself measures 2" tall.

 

Just got this and a bunch of other cameos in earlier this week. I love them! Check out my store for more.
