Little mushrooms for your ears

Thu, 03 Dec 2009 00:52:26 -0500

$7.00
These little guys look like something you would come across during a walk through the forest. They are tiny mushrooms that were hand sculpted by me using polymer clay. The red caps of the mushrooms are made from a bright red and the stalks were made using a glittery white that gives them just a hint of sparkle. They have been finished with a varnish for added shine and durability. They measure 3/4 inches (2 cm) in length by 1/2 inches (1 cm) in diameter at the widest point. They hang from silver plated earwires with rubber stoppers on the end to keep them from slipping out of your ears.

Custom word pendant

Thu, 03 Dec 2009 00:12:49 -0500

$7.50
This pendant will be made to say whatever you want it to! These are handmade from polymer clay in your choice of color. Yours will be hand-stamped to spell out the word of your choosing. It may be a name, an uplifting word, or any word that you prefer. The pendants are cut into a rectangular shape, framing the word, and embellished with two swarovski crystal rhinestones in coordinating colors (unless you would prefer yours without). In my opinion, these pendants look best with words consisting of 4-8 letters.

Here is what you will need to include in the "message to seller" box when you check out.

1.) What color would you like your pendant to be? I have or can mix any color of the rainbow, so feel free to be as descriptive as you'd like when specifying your color. Example: lime green, fuschia, sky blue, lavender, etc.

2.) What word would you like your pendant to say?

3.) Would you like rhinestones on your pendant? And if so, would you like a specific color or would you like me to just choose a color that best matches the clay? The colors I have available are: Aqua, hot pink, red, emerald (green), amethyst (purple), clear, yellow, royal blue.

After receiving your payment and the answers to the questions above, I will have your order completed and shipped within 2 days. The pendants in the photo are meant to demonstrate some of the possibilities, but they are also available to ship immediately. From left to right, they read: Peace. Create. Imagine. Imagine. Create. Love. If you would like one of the pendants photographed, just mention which one in the "message to seller" box.

*NOTE- this listing is for the pendant only. It comes with a silver jump ring, ready to hang from your favorite chain or cord. Or you may purchase a chain separately in the "add-ons" section of my shop.

Brachiopod fossil wrapped in wire

Wed, 04 Nov 2009 17:09:28 -0500

$10.00
This amazing little piece of history was found right here in Oklahoma. Although you wouldn't know it at first glance, this state was once the bottom of a deep sea and therefore numerous oceanic fossils may be found here.

It measures 1 inch (3 cm) in length. This would be the perfect gift for the history buff in your life! I've had these at craft shows and people of all ages just love them.
