Vintage Suffragette Charms - 29 May 2011

Just discovered: these fabulous vintage charms from The Manor House at Creativity Inc. I could make three necklaces or I could make a three charm necklace, oh the choices I can make. I love the little story they tell: At 20 Flirting and Coquettery; At 26 Fast and Dissipation; At 40 An Outcast. Thank my stars we live in this moderne age!

Punk Buttons - 29 May 2011

I also found the awesome Rocker Chick buttons. I don’t know what to make them into, probably a ring (surprise, surprise) or maybe I’ll try something different.  I remember seeing some really funky looking button bracelets in a furniture shop on Thorndon Quay, of all places.

Pink Pearls - Chunky Charm Bracelet

This morning I shot a bunch of detail shots for my Chunky Charm Bracelets as the pictures I currently have on Etsy don’t really show the full detail in these magnificent baubles. However, time got away from me and I haven’t had a chance to load them yet. Actually, I spent so much time adding an About page and a How to Order page on my newly revamped Sparkling Candy tumblr blog that I didn’t have time to work on Etsy.

In Technical News: The latest WordPress app update has added blog stats. My stats don’t look too shabby. In fact, it makes for interesting and encouraging reading. Thanks to those of you who read my various writings and hilarious jewelry procrastinations.
