  1. So I've had this idea floating around in my head for a while now. I had a bit of extra time last night, so I played around with it and finally got a design that I'm happy with!

    It's my Mickey Mouse version of a classic Daisy Chain!

    I used the original Mickey colors - red, black, and yellow - but it could be done in any color combination. Christmas, Halloween, solid black, etc.

    What do you guys think???

  2. Thank you guys! And thank you Von354 for the idea!

    I'm going to put them in my shop after I get a few more swirly ones finished - for pictures. I think those are the only ones I'm going to offer, just because everyone seems to like them the most. (Including me!)

    They will be $3.50 each plus shipping, and I always combine shipping. :)

    Let me know if you have any more questions! Or ideas! ;)

  3. I am so excited about these!

    I have included one of my handmade rolled beads on top as a focal bead. And in the tube there is a small spool of stretch magic, along with a mix of matching seed beads, Swarovski crystals, acrylic beads, glass pearls, and pressed glass beads.

    There's enough materials for one, maybe two bracelets!

    As always, I would love to know what you guys think!

  4. Thank you so much guys!

    Carrie, do you have something specific in mind? I can do any of the things you mentioned!

    I do have some bracelets that I think are more 'adult':

    This one is sold, but it's another variation on color:

    Is that sort of what you're looking for? Maybe some mini fairy lanterns in colors that you like, with some silver cross or peace sign charms? I even have 24K gold lined beads, which I think are really cool!

  5. I haven't posted here in a while!

    I've been mainly working with seed beads lately, but received a custom order for an ice cream cake roll necklace a couple of weeks ago, so I had to temporarily switch back to polymer clay!

    Here's the finished product!

    IceCreamCakeRollFinished.jpg

    It's about 30mm tall, and made entirely out of polymer clay; no molds or paints! I just strung it on black satin cord with a sterling silver clasp. Oh! And it's scented, too! Chocolate cake/vanilla cream! Yum!

    It's based on a dessert from a restaurant called The Chateau. I'd love to eat there sometime! lol

  6. I've been reading about it. I think it's just plain stupid. The economy is already in bad shape (like I even needed to remind anyone of that) and if this law passes, it is just going to get worse very quickly with all the people who are going to lose their jobs/shops/etc. Well, actually... Maybe it isn't going to get worse if this passes, since there's going to be hardly anything left for people to worry about buying... Hmm... :rolleyes2

    There's a thread over on Etsy listing all the types of jobs that are going to be lost over this law passing - since most people don't have thousands of dollars to spend on this sort of 'testing' and most of them plan on just closing shop. Pattern makers, graphic artists, fabric cutters; lots of things that you really don't think about, but that are an important part of making these businesses run smoothly.

    I think the whole thing is just one of the dumbest things I've ever heard, and I get so irritated just thinking about it. :mad:

  7. Here’s what I’ve been working on for Valentine's Day!

    Let’s see… There are…

    Three Chocolate Valentine Heart Cookie Ornaments

    Two Chocolate Dipped Strawberries Ornaments

    And… Four Love Bug Charms!

    ValentineGoodiesLoveBugs.jpg

    I am SO ready for Valentine’s Day this year! lol

    The cookies are about 38mm tall, the strawberries are about 40mm tall (including the stem), and the Love Bugs are about 28mm tall (not including the clasp).

    I have some little matching cards that I plan on attaching them to. Hopefully I’ll get a chance to do that tonight or tomorrow!

    I would love to know what you guys think! I’m especially curious about the cookies… Can you guys tell they are supposed to be cookies with icing and sprinkles on them???

    I can’t wait to hear what you think!

  8. Are they smelly jellies just smooshed into a little container? I noticed them in a certain candle catalog that I got in the mail the other day. :D

    They look pretty nifty, but I'm thinking that if they are just another form of smelly jellies, I'll wait until a bit later to try them out. (I already have waaaay too much going on right now!)

    Any suggestions?

  9. I finally got around to taking pictures of cupcakes with toppings! This is my favorite! I love the cherry on top!

    I've also got one with chocolate cake that I need to get a good picture of. And I have the most awesome sprinkles on their way to me right now! I can't wait to get them! Hehe!

    What are some other toppings that you guys can think of? Or color combinations? I already have the mint chocolate in mind! Scented in Mint Chocolate Chip of course! This one is scented in Birthday Buttercream Cupcake! My DH has already pretended to be eating it! Good thing it's with it's new owner now! lol
