No ufortunately I don't! But I'm always on the look out for more unique items to make jewelry of, so maybe I'll find some more in the future. The ones in my store I got in a auction box along with some broken necklaces some years ago... Ooh... Exciting that you're opening up a shop!

I went to see your shop and I love it. I could not find the earrings you showed in the last picture of the first post on this page. I have sent the link to a co-worker who might be interested. I think it's good that you have a Paypal connection. I also went to see your blogue and I love the computer chair and what you did with that shirt is absolutely beautiful. Keep on with the creative work. Margot

Thanks Jessica! And thanks Margot! I will probably add more of those earrings soon, Whitney bought the pair that is in the picture. I'm out of blue clay though, so it could take maybe... A week before they're back :) Something new. Not sure if i will put this up in the shop though. I have no idea how to ship it without it breaking. The glue's pretty strong (I've tried the whole day to break it to test it ) but you never know how brutal the handling of the package will be during shipping. Probably needs to be in a box. But. I'm having the most awesome idea for a picture to feature this in. Gonna try it out tomorrow... Will show you then

A small box with bubble stuffing should be good.
Can't wait to see the picture tomorrow.

Oh, that pineapple ring is really cute! Done any other fruits?

No other fruits, the pineapples are the only ones I have.
I'd like to have it with red apples though...

Yeah, that was what I was thinking, hah! Cherries usually sell well as well. Still, pineapples are more original!

Awesome!
That European Team's thread moves so fast! Not sure I would be able to keep up even if I tried...

I gave up on that thread after like 30 seconds. The blog's more fun.
I think I need to buy my supplies somewhere else. Earhooks and stuff. If I keep buying them at Panduro I will ruin myself. Seriously... I can't believe the prices! 5 pairs of metal earhooks - 4 usd. On etsy; silver plated earhooks 15 pairs - 2.80 usd.
Mmmkay... Panduro must go away. Like, right now.

Well, it's always more expencive from hobby stores like that! Though sometimes worth it for convenience or stuff you just need small quantities of. Price-wise it's usually best to find someone who sells in bulk!

Metal earhooks? Hmmm when I go to Personal Torturing tomorrow - I'll have a look at the bead shop to see what they charge.

Look what came in the mail today! Slight problem though. They ran the envelope through some sort of machine that made it look as if an angry bear had gotten a hold of it. It was placed in a plastic bag and there was a note attached that said this was how it was received in Pittsburgh. The clay earrings were in perfect condition but the little cars got a little beat up. One is a little dinged up and the other is missing it's back wheels (they weren't even in the envelope) and the seat was all popped out and smashed up. Feel like I'm taking pictures of a car accident. I think I'll be able to get fix them up though. Still perfectly wearable. I mainly just wanted to warn you that it could happen. I don't really know what you're supposed to do about "non-machinable mail." I love them so much though. Thank you.
