Storenvy for International Buyers

I finally am uploading items to my storenvy shop -
http://earthlyjewelsbeads.storenvy.com/


I started with the antique gold charms and i also have one of the settings already there....i still have a looooot to upload but, it's already in working order and ready to accept international orders (if what you want is already there).

I thought about listing them on etsy but, i have sooo many items that i think the listing fees would make me go bankrupt before i can get the sales going. So, i was so happy to have found storenvy. I still have my digital collage sheets on my etsy shop but all the jewelry and craft supplies will have to go here.....

I will keep adding to this until i have them all listed...so far i have these avaiable...








So, go ahead and browse...soon i will have a lot more. 
Oh and here is some info on the shop -
  • I accept paypal payments...you can use your credit card through paypal.
  • The items will be shipped from the Philippines..which is in Asia. So it will take around 4-6 weeks before it gets to you..depending on what country you are from.
  • I accept wholesale orders...message me in the contact form if you are interested. Let me know your order.
  • Come back and check out the shop for updates...i plan to put a lot more charms in both silver and antique gold, Settings and bezels, jewelry findings, filigrees, acrylic beads, lucite flowers, stones and beads and sooo much more..


Come and check out the shop-

Resin Demo Pieces for the Workshop

Since my last resin workshop, I've been running it over my head... rethinking and developing it more...rearranging, subtracting and adding  different concepts and demos...

I have been working on casting heart charms such as these which I plan to demo on my next workshop...

they're quite lovely...and would look great as pendants or bracelet charms or even magnets...


Then i also have the glitter hearts....which are ohhh sooo pretty!!! 


and colors of the rainbow.....
So, i think the workshop attendees would love to learn these techniques...don't you?

I am quite excited for the next workshop...April 20th...i have 2 students already and I know they're going to be as addicted to creating with resin as i am...

RESIN JEWELRY WORKSHOP

I finally had my first RESIN JEWELRY WORKSHOP...and ooh i sure did enjoy it!!! I got to meet some great ladies..Inah and Lizanne!

I setup our small area in my little apartment the night before...

I started the workshop with a bit of background on resin and its uses...they were happy about the workshop notes that i prepared and the kit...i loaded up the kit with more than usual since these are my first workshop takers... including take home plastic holders, 3 different molds they can use and an assortment of bezels, settings and bottlecaps.

The resin that i included in their kit were also completely theirs to take home. I used separate resin during the workshop for them to practice on...this was a freebie for them for being my first workshop takers.. 

After the short background, it was time for mixing. We did casting in the morning...leaving some of the pieces unfinished for a second pouring...
 After lunch the ladies worked on the images they would be adding to their bezels and settings... we were more serious at this time...quiet and busy working...



Here are some of their work.....









I asked them to suggest things for my future workshops and i am thankful for their ideas. I will be adjusting the next workshop according to some of their ideas. I think in the next workshop, i will be concentrating on more settings and bezels and having specific projects scheduled for the attendees.... I will also have a way for them to carry their finished (but drying) resin pieces much safer and easier, especially for those that would be commuting.

Here are some of the pieces i did a demo on during the workshop....






I never knew how satisfying a workshop can be...although at the end of the workshop, i was quite exhausted..mostly from the heat that day. I can't wait to schedule the next one!!!

Thank you so much ladies for a great day!!!
