Playing with color

Sometimes, you just feel like playing with one color. Yesterday, I chose a solid dark sky blue and added just a little raku for details. Here are a few of them that I listed on Etsy today. I wondered a bit about etching them - I'm sure they would have turned out great - but I will let you decide if you want them shiny or satiny. :)

I'm back!

Thanks to everyone who have participated in my great "Cleaning the shop" sale on Etsy. Well, I'm back with new beads and I will list new beads regularly to fill the shop again with goodies. Feel free to empty it as I go, I won't mind. ;)

I'm leaving some of the jewelry in the shop so that it won't look too empty in there, but I'm thinking of starting a new shop for jewelry only. But I also might see if I can place them in a boutique in Quebec. Autumn is a great time for planning projects, and ideas are flowing these days to expand my business a little.

Here is a set I've listed today and I have spacers to match it:

Let's clean the place

Well, I've decided I want to clear my Etsy shop to hopefully have all new beads in it eventually. So for the first time ever (and I hope the last), I will have a 50% discount sale. Yep, 50%! Unbelievable! When does it end, you might ask? I don't know. Maybe a couple of days, or until the shop is clean. :)

I just listed a few new sets also, so come check them out and I hope you find something you like.

Take care,
Marie

1st day of school

It's been a long time since you have heard from me. I've had my daughter at home a lot this summer during the day and especially the last two weeks, as day camp was over. Boy, do kids keep us occupied. :) But, today is the first day of school, and we are both ecstatic. She gets to take the bus again, start a new year (she loves shool) and see all her friends again. I get to work full time on my beadmaking again and I couldn't wait. :) So to celebrate and also make place for new beads, I offer a 25% discount on all the items in my Etsy shop. Yay! You can buy as usual and I will refund the difference through Paypal.

Take care,
Marie
