Here are some pictures of a few brand-new items that I've uploaded in the past two weeks:

A couple days ago I purchased a metal stamping kit to create jewelry with awesome quotes and sayings. I've always admired this kind of jewelry, but it does take some investment to get the required tools! I finally broke down and now I'm having fun with a rustic metal look that I've never really incorporated into my jewelry pieces before.

It's probably not a surprise to you all that I am a Doctor Who fan. I have my online friend Elenatintil to blame for introducing me to the show, and several irl friends to blame for getting me completely addicted!

For those of you not familiar with Doctor Who... it's complete bonkers to explain. You always wind up sounding like an idiot, but believe me when I say the show's eccentricities make it epic. Basically it is a BBC show about an alien known only as the Doctor who goes around in a 1960's blue Police Box (which is actually a spaceship called the TARDIS) with various companions (typically a modern day London girl), traveling throughout all of time and space and having wacky, deep, usually-quite-intelligent, and hard-to-explain adventures. Oh, and the Doctor is played by several different actors.

This was an image which greatly inspired this jewelry set:


I don't know who made the compilation graphic with the quote on it, but the artwork featured in this picture was made by Alicexz on DeviantArt.

People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect,

but actually, from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint -

it's more like a big ball of wibbly wobbly... time-y wimey... stuff.

I love that "wibbly wobbly timey wimey" quote. It's handy to flourish when your brother is asking you to think about light cones and fourth dimensions. :) "It's all just wibbly wobbly timey wimey stuff!"

All of time and space; everywhere and anywhere; every star that ever was... Where do you want to start?

I handstamped the letters onto aluminum, cut out the metal and sanded the edges, punched in holes for the TARDIS blue eyelets, and strung everything onto darkened steel chain sprinkled with blue glass cats-eye beads.


If you are interested, the necklace and two bracelets are for sale as a set on my Shoppe.

Also, I LOVE my camera and its lenses. They were a graduation present and I've been having SO MUCH FUN playing with the settings. :)

Fellow Whovians... what is your favorite Doctor Who quote? And your favorite episode and companion and Doctor? Personally I love Don't Blink, Amy, Martha, and Clara (don't make me pick!) and my bug-eyed Doctor (lol-- it's a joke in my family-- I mean the talented David Tennant of course!).


As a bonus, here is the very first piece that I made with my stamping kit! "Inconceivable!" is, of course, from The Princess Bride, one of the most quotable movies of all time. This one has chainmaille details.

I do not think that word means what you think it means.

Just a bit of peddling and some shameless self-promotion today, but it comes with a bunch of eye candy, so come along for the show! *starts humming a festive tune*

I finally got around to perfecting my recipe for ear cuffs. Turns out all I needed was a dash of pixie dust and a sprinkle of aha! seasoning.

I've listed several ear cuffs in the Shoppe, including a pair of cuffs-- perfect for anyone looking for an alternative to earrings or clip-on earrings. Click through for more pictures, to see how they are worn.

Ear cuff set with interchangeable dangles, well over 10 ways to wear...

This one gets a touch of whimsical steampunkery.

This weekend one of my friends invited me to the Six Flags amusement park. I wore one of the tiny ear cuffs (like this one, only brown), and it stayed in all day, except for the times when I took it off so that other people could wear it. I had sooooo much fun.


In response to those who asked me here on Blogger or via my Twitter and Facebook: do I plan on making an ear cuff tutorial? Yes. Just not right now. Tutorials can take me up to five hours to make, and I still have several weeks of school left.


Czech glass leaf beads are some of my favorites. You've seen me use them in the Evenstar Necklaces and Enchanted Forest Earrings, and now I'm weaving them into flowers galore. I recently uploaded three floral necklaces and two earrings!


Personally, I don't wear big, dangly earrings on an everyday basis. This might come as a surprise, considering that I love making big dangly earrings and would make them on a daily basis if I could. I don't have the supplies to make stud earrings, so I once again put those Czech glass beads to work. The pictured earrings are extra-delicate, made from miniature leaf beads that I recently discovered. :) I made pairs in six colors for myself,! One for every day of the week, with big earrings for dressing up on Sunday, lol!


There's tons more but I don't want to bore you-- and I'm off to study for a History test and finish up Ink and Fairydust and maybe find time for some more crafting. :)

I have exciting news, dear blog readers! For the first time ever, some of my jewelries and crafts are available for sale!
