I made a couple of necklaces while my shop was closed and they turned out really cute. I know they're really simple and not particularly breath-taking or anything, but they're cool because they're customizable.
These are what I came up with, but I can make these in just about any color combination. Pink & black, blue & red, purple & teal, yellow & green, you name it. Also, they're very affordable for me to make, so I don't have to ask much for them. I have both of these for sale here and I'm only asking $18 for them, and it'd be the same for any custom ones. This isn't an advertisement post or anything, I'm not saying GO BUY NOW, I just thought it was pretty neat and that I'd share. I'm ready to get my creative juices flowing again and can't wait to see what 2011 holds for my little business. :)
In more "beauty related" news, I finally got a couple of Konad plates. I've wanted to get some for months now, and I finally had a little extra money to get some. I've been playing around with them a lot to try and get used to them, so expect to see some nail posts very soon.
Have a lovely day! :)

ReplyDeleteIf you want some affordable nail plates to play with, try the Shany set on Amazon, it's like $14.95 for 25 plates. :) A lot of variety.
ReplyDeleteI have the Bundle Monster plates from Amazon, it's $17 for 21 plates, they came out before the Shany plates, so that's why I got these instead, but the Shany ones have the same designs, but 4 additional plates.
Also, bf-beauty.com has "Fauxnad" plates for $2 each, and really cheap shipping. The HB line of plates are really cute, and some of the other ones are cute too, including a plate with a Hello Kitty head on it. :)
Shipping is really cheap. I got 4 plates for 60 cent shipping, I think. It is a bit slow, because it's from Hong Kong, but worth it.
Oh, and all of these transfer really well, even though they're not the Konad brand I have a bunch of them and they are all good quality. :D
Also, glad to see that your business is blooming. ^__^
I love the cross necklace, the black teardrop beads are so pretty! If I had moneys id be all over that!
ReplyDeleteAriana: Thanks! I'm going to check those out right now :D
ReplyDeleteAoife: Thank you :) I fell in love with that cross when I saw it, I said "I HAVE TO MAKE SOMETHING WITH THIS" and these little necklaces were born haha
I *LOVED* the one in the first picture (the pendant with the tree on it). They are both really cute, you always make such beautiful things :D
ReplyDeleteJuno: Thank you! :D I actually designed that one, and my mom designed the blue cross one. I physically made both of them, though. I'm glad you like my tree necklace, I plan on making bunches! ^-^
ReplyDeleteCaptivating designs, superlative materials and meticulous craftsmanship are all becoming the signature pieces that proclaim one’s personal style.
