I have a shop?

Yep. I forgot about it too. I've had my head in the books so much lately, I just hope it's all worth it! There are still loads of feather goodies in the shop. I still even have all the supplies and sculpey in the world to make rings...just no time (yet). I'll spend some time next week (Spring break!) to work on the shop. I'd like to add a few crochet items and a few rings back in. I need a little thinking time to come up with something super unique and fun. Until then, if you're interested in feather earrings, check out the shop.

White night!

Tonight after class I decided to work with white sculpey first before any other color. Silly me always starts messing around with white sculpey after I've been using colors such as green, black or red. Or any color really. It is so hard sometimes to scrub every scrap of sculpey off of your fingers and hands, so when you start with another color especially white or yellow, you end up with streaks!

Soooo.........I used only white tonight and then a teeensy scrap of light pink. I made 3 white roses (and then threw one away. I made the petals to thin and I broke it on the way out of the oven. Whoops!), 2 white bows and a cute little bunny.

I was going to move onto another light color, but honestly I'm tuckered out. The bunny and the bows are in the oven now and when they come out I'm grabbing a book off the shelf and heading to bed. What book? Hard Times by Charles Dickens.

Hopefully I'll have more ring bases in tomorrow and these new lovelies along with the pearly green roses and bows from last night will go up on Storenvy. I'll also post some pictures here too. 'Night white sculpey!

The show is going to the flea market!

The boyfriend and I were at the Wagon Wheel flea market in Pinellas Park yesterday and I decided it's worth a try renting a space for a weekend. I've gotten lots of looks on Etsy and Storenvy but so far no takers. I think I might have a little luck at the flea market. It might even be a confidence booster.....or buster. I won't be going for another 2 weeks or so, but I'll blog about it later.

The macaw feathers came in yesterday morning. I got them cleaned up and went to work on them.

So far, my favorite is the little red one on the end. I'm not sure if I'm going to put any of these up in the shop yet. If anyone is interested in buying though, let me know. I think I'm going to focus on having pieces made for the flea market for now.

 

Better pictures from last night!

As promised, here are some better pictures of the earring and clip I made yesterday. Also, the ring bases came into! Some of them anyway, so check out my Storenvy shop for those a little later today. I'm going to make a few roses too. On to pictures!

Bad links!

It was brought to my attention today that some of my links in my blog posts did not work! How did I find this out? Someone on twitter said my etsy link on twitter didn't work. That got me think' "what if all my Etsy links were bad everywhere?" Sure enough, they were!

Everything is fixed now and I am back to studying for my mid-term in 1.5 hours. Ahhhhh!!!

(I only need 3 more 'likes' on facebook and that mess at the end of the url will go away. My own vanity url, huzzah!)

Sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for your patience!

P.S. I bet the materials to finish my rings will be here soon!

UPDATE! I finally made it over the 25 'likes' hump on facebook. You can find my page at facebook Also, the link above still work. I just thought I'd gush a little!

UPDATE! I got an 82 (B) on that mid-term!

Pieces from the last 2 days

Yesterday and today I made 3 new pieces that I put up on Storenvy.





I still haven't played with the pink synthetic hair yet. I had something else to say and I absolutely cannot remember what it was! *sigh* Anyway be sure to check out the shop and also take a peek I what I've got goin' on over at Etsy. Like I've said before, the 5 items on etsy will be there until they sell or the listing expires (then they will move to storenvy. Or the garbage because if they were up for 3 months and no one wanted them... just kidding)

Good news! I'm posting a ring!

I found a ring base mixed in with some other supplies, so I put together a ring for the Storenvy shop. I chose the red rose because it is classic. Hopefully very soon I'll have a lot more colors and designs up (just waiting on those ring bases!)

By the way, from now on I will be posting new items in the Storenvy shop. I'm really starting to get the hang of it and almost prefer it. I do still have 5 items in the Etsy shop and they will stay there until they sell or the listing expires (I'll let everyone know when that happens). So be sure to check that out. Night!

 

Slow feathers and fast cars...

I know I only ordered my new feathers on Sunday night, but I've been checking the mailbox like a mad-woman! I'm really excited and I'm hoping that once I get more things made they might get noticed. I also opened a shop at Storenvy. I don't have anything listed yet (waiting on my new feathers!) but you can find my shop at http://hellosundae.storenvy.com/.

These are just some of the pretties I ordered

On another note... have you ever had to jump out of a plane without feeling confident you could open your own chute? Well, I for one haven't but it's going to  feel like that Thursday morning. I've been learning digital photography at my own pace and my lovely boyfriend has been very patient teaching me. Every year he goes out and shoots the Honda Grand Prix in St. Petersburg, this year he was asked to cover the "construction kick-off" ground-breaking/ribbon cutting thingy. Since he works Mon-Fri, 8-5 he can't be there. Guess who has to fill in. Yep, me. I'm sure I'll be fine, I'm just used to having him behind me telling me, "Hey! change your shutter speed!" I'll probably feel better this evening once I know exactly what I'm supposed to do (besides hold a camera, look pretty and take pretty pictures). Ack!
