Here's why I've not been posting lol!

WOO! The store is GROWING in leaps and bounds!

I've been workin' like a beast, adding stuff, editing stuff, taking pictures and tons of them! and of course, trying out the new beads I get in and making things with them! (I'm such a bead addict!)

Added recently (from most recently to last) are:

• ALL the non magnetic bracelets - there is something for EVERYONE!
• Charity sets! 5$ off each set goes to Samaritan's purse (in this case, the sets are for Haiti, but other charities will be added as I go along!) There are Haiti sets, and cancer sets (and cancer "single" pieces too!
• Bracelet/Earring sets - this are perfectly matched sets and they are kissed with a touch of spring (well, for the most part - until that day we had a nasty storm :-O  )
• Full sets and necklaces - you HAVE to check these out. Most of the sets come with Necklace/Earrings and bracelet. Some have just the necklace/earrings or necklace bracelet (I can easily add the missing "piece" if you're interested). Some are just plain necklaces. Some of my best ever work are in these. Most of the sets take a _minimum_ 10 hours to complete (at the very least). But the results! wow!
• And of course, the earrings were added first, but wait! not all of them are there. So, come back, often!

Next stop is:

Magnetic Bracelet! Apparently very good for arthritis and joint pain (I'm no doc, so don't quote me, but ancient peoples have used magnets for a lot longer than we've been around! KEEP AWAY from watch batteries!

Cell phone charms, zipper pulls (that can SUPER easily be converted to a cell charm!) and STITCH markers! (for that yarn addict in your family or circle of friends who has it all!)

I've also added categories galore, and you can select the colors category, and then the colors you are looking for! I'm trying to make it as simple for people to find stuff! And I've also discovered a way to make listing stuff a LOT easier!

And lastly, I'm going to start adding "cross-selling", which basically will show you on the page of the item you are looking at, relevant items to the one you are (perhaps) going to buy.

I've also implemented volume discounts for MOST items, for example items that are 6$ (be it earrings or bracelets) you can get one for 6$ or two (be it 2 bracelets or 1 earrings 1 bracelet) for 10$ (as long as they are the same price.) The only category this will not apply for are the cell charms etc. Its more for the jewelry. There is a discount for 8$ items, 3$ items, and probably others too...

I also plan on doing a monthly charity gig, where a certain percentage will go to a charity of choice.

As it stands, any items with cancer beads/charms have 5$ that go to cancer research.
I will add more, and offer monthly or even weekly sales, to help my customers save money, AND help others in general at the same time! (how cool is that?)

So, come take a peek! the store is ONLINE now, its rarin' to go, just waiting for browsers to come and buy!

When the magnetics and charms are all in, I will hold a huge sale to launch the store!

And lastly, if you need jewelry or charms for a charity event in your area, please feel free to contact me. I will either sell you the items or perhaps even donate them to you (I need a charity receipt however). I'm always glad to help!

Hoping and praying you all have an awesome day! God Bless!

WOOT! we are back ONLINE and OPEN for business!

I'm on a ROLL people, just call me BUTTER! (not parkay ok?)

SO! The store is OPEN! come one come all! Register for the newsletter. I plan on sending my registered customers special deals ONLY available to them... (and no I won't spam, promised!)

I'm adding the earrings to start with. I've about 120 pairs to add, with about 40 done so far! Then, we'll see which comes next.

There are St-Patrick/Shamrock stuff, with more to come!

On the main page, I've listed all the changes and updates I've made to the store, including the new flat rate shipping fee, (instead of all the messing around with Canada post!), new discount deals and more!

You can also select what kind of items you'd like to see by the (many) categories on the left hand side, and this now includes Colors! If you click on the Colors category, in the central part (where the items are usually listed), there will be all the different colors that are currently used within my items. Click on the color you want (say Blues) and VOILA! all the blue stuff comes up! :) You can also use the search engine to find what you're looking for!

Please remember, if you don't find what you're looking for, or have an idea for a piece, I'd be happy to work something out with you! Also, if you'd rather wear posts or hooks (and the item you are drooling over has the other) drop me a line, and I'll switch them up for you!

Little tip of the day! I've found out through experimenting that hooks CAN be used with metal earnuts (like the ones used on post earrings!) and that way, you don't lose your precious goodies :) BUT, please try this on BEFORE you put the earrings on, so you're SURE the earnut will come off. I did this with a pair of new butterfly earrings, and one came off no prob, but the other! yeeesh! I had to CUT it off! (now that is scary lol!) You've been warned! so! COME SEE ME! Comments and questions are always welcomed!

Cheers! and may the Lord bless you!

A new blog site, lets hope this one does NOT get deleted!

So I was on another blog, and I get home from church, and lo and behold, my account was deleted because of spam? WHAT? and apparently, I only had links in my blog? I wonder what all the text was then.

I'm sorry, but I'm having a crappy ... month! I had to put Gorbie down on Friday, then they go and pull this stunt! Thanks guys! So, I'm gonna post here, instead, even though I realize people sometimes have a hard time leaving comments. Sorry folks, but this is until the store is up and running. :(

What a joke. So, anyways... Here are a couple of creations... they will be available at the online store soon (or email me if you want them NOW).
