Blythe Dolls Inspired Jewels

Hello everyone! I have been working on some new jewelry pieces this week and one was a custom request of one of the mermaid blythe dolls. I LOVE these adorable retro looking big-eyed dollies so much myself, so i thought i would share some of the necklaces I have made with them over the last year or so! Super cute and hope to continue to have lots more goodies like these in the future! Hope everyone is having a great week! My work area is jam packed with LOTS and LOTS of styles of pieces that i cannot wait to share with you! Keep your eyes peeled! xoxo

Happy New YEAR!!!!

Happy 2012 everyone!!! I hope you all had a happy and healthy holiday season! 2011 brought about ALOT of life changes for me. It really showed me how strong of a woman I really am both emotionally, mentally and even physically. I am thankful for all that I learned in 2011 but am ready to have a fresh start for 2012! With a wonderful renewed outlook on life and love standing by my side I am ready and happy to be back in full force again at creating! I am currently working on lots of new items for the shop in many different genres of jewelry. New kawaii and lolita items on the way as well as expanding more into my love for Steampunk and Neovictorian pieces! I have been away from my blog for sooo long - but one of my new promises I have made for myself and my career is to post and create/discuss more often as it really and truly is a wonderful outlet of expression for me. So thank you so so much for reading this and for you love and support!!! Posting new items on a daily basis to the shop on etsy- starting this week! also of which has been renamed as well!
