In honor of my friend

This necklace is nothing but pink roundels and bicone crystals with silvery pewter bead caps and clusters of silver flowers. The silver toggle clasp boasts tiny pink embedded crystals. The pink heart pendant has a bursting pink flower in the center and reminds me of the love that my friend had for so many.

This one of a kind set is on sale in my Zibbet shop. 25% proceeds will go to the Susan G. Komen Foundation.

I miss you, Girl. I hope you like it.

Fabulous Find- Eclectic Oddities

I'm supposed to be doing fabulous finds every week, but as you know my friend died this month and life's been soooo mumbo jumbo. I am sure it will all pass in time.

I love the unusual. Cookie Cutter gets SO mundane after a while.
This one perked me up right away.

Look at this brooch made by Eclectic Oddities over at Zibbet. This brooch is listed as OOAK and is made from the side of a brass zipper and wool felted beads in 4 bright, summery, beachy colors and sells for $40USD. Tre Cool.


EclecticOddities has done a great job photographing her items and her artwork is fittingly Eclectic. You will find Handbags, Mixed Media, and Wearable Art sections. There's a lot to choose from, so stop by her shop sometime and check out this Waterbury artist.

And the beat goes on

My husband is becoming quite the lover of leather. It benefits me because I get to get the first of all creations. I like the perks.

I showed my girlfriend this Sunburst cuff one night and she immediately said "hey, this looks like it would be from Brighton!" It hadn't occurred to me until she said that to me. I find that to be an ace compliment. This one's available in Brown or Black in either heart shaped or round sunburst pattern and you can find it on sale in my Zibbet shop.

Fabulous Finds

Since joining Zibbet, I have to admit that I have not spent a lot of time window shopping there. I've been so busy trying to establish my shop there, get my blog straight here, make sure my items listed EVERYWHERE are straight that I have not stopped to check out all of the cool items that people are creating at this relatively new selling venue. LOC Design's Studio Started a forum post in the Zibbet Community called Fun Finds, which I think is a great idea, so I'm going to incorporate it into my blog. But you know me. I'm going to call it my Fabulous Finds. This is my first Zibbet Fabulous Find.


This is a handmade, upcycled hat by a shop owner called delightworthyn. There are a lot of things in this shop that are vintage inspired or "Neo Vicorian" as the shop refers the pieces as, and just a lot of downright coolness. I usually dress conservatively (in the artists "uniform" of black black black!), but adding a splash of FIERCE such as this topper (or any of her pieces, frankly) would make my day. Go take a look. You might find cool pair of strawberry earrings made from a vintage applique, a lacy messenger pouch, or a fire engine red poppy brooch. But keep your hands off the hat. I plan on stalking it for a while.

The One Hundred

I accomplished a feat today on Zibbet that I have never been able to do on Etsy in the almost 4 years I have had a shop there, and that is list 100 items. I know it does not seem like much to some, but to me, it's a big deal. I never did get to list that many items on Etsy because, well, it just cost too damn much to do so. $20 may not sound like a lot, but it's a quarter of a tank of gas when you've got no job.

Anyhow, in celebration of my 100th item, I am giving away a pair of earrings with the 100th item, which are these cute green glass pearl earrings. You basically get two pair for the price of one while supplies last. I will get the choice of the free earrings, but I promise you it won't be some ugly pair of plastic bat wing earrings that I knew I'd never sell. Anyway, thanks for looking and thanks for reading.
