Amazing earrings and a great shop. My daughter is in love with her new Tardis earrings and their extra sparkle. She gets compliments everywhere she wears them. These are a big win.

It's perfect! Bought it as a gift but I kinda wanna keep it for myself!
About
How the Gear Became Gold
The craziest gift I ever received was a casting centrifuge and all the tools, books, and supplies that I needed to start my jewelry business.
I answered an ad on freecycle a couple months after i'd been laid off. She just kept bringing out the boxes of her mothers jewelry making things. I have never felt so blessed.
This womans gift has changed everything about my life and how I plan to live it. Since that day, I've been happier and more positive than I've been in my whole life. A total stranger gave me back my creative mojo and the tools to start my new life!
This is how my little store opened. I'm still mostly only casting the original screw earrings that I first made when I got my mojo back but i've since added lots of other neat things that I make.
Thanks Gail!

Returns and exchanges
If, for any reason, your item is defective, we will gladly exchange/replace it at no additional costs to you. Please email photos of the defect prior to returning the item and we will provide you with return information.
If you want to exchange your item for other reasons such as you ordered the wrong size/color/design or it doesn't suit your needs, a 50% restocking fee will be charged as each one is made custom to your specifications. Returned items must be in unused clean brand new unworn condition to receive your partial refund.
Orders with customer provided artwork can not be returned/exchanged. We do our best to let you know what your items will look like, verify your order and may even refuse custom work if the artwork will not provide good results.
Payment
Shipping
We ship via USPS for all orders. When available, tracking numbers are supplied when the order is shipped. Orders are processed as quickly as we can get to them.
International Shipping
For orders being delivered outside the USA, packages are delivered via USPS to the appropriate local postal agency for delivery in your country. Once a package has been released from USPS custody, the USPS tracking numbers can no longer track the package. Non-US postal agencies may require additional taxes, tarriffs or bribes that we don't have control over, and therefore can not be held responsible for. Please know your local postal rules on receiving foreign packages prior to ordering to avoid unexpected charges, hassles or delays.
Additional policies and FAQs
We start working on your order when payment is received or shortly thereafter. If you need to cancel your order, please do it as quickly as possible. If we have not started work on your order, you may be able to get a full refund. If we have already started working on your order, we will try to give you as much of a refund as possible but we do need to cover our expenses. Paypal will charge us if you make a transaction, even if you cancel it promptly. This expense will be taken out of your refund.
While we keep a fairly large inventory in the shop, we sometimes have to order shirts or other supplies that may cause delays in order delivery. Please order well in advance of special events or gift giving holidays to account for unforeseen delays.
