Wotcha Subeta folks!
Thought I'd drop on by and show off my little stuffs :D. I make jewellery which yes, I know loaaads of people do! You know why? Because its FUN. Thats why loads of people do it :D It's fun and its relaxing and its great to see something come out of some beads and a bit of elastic or wire.
I thought it might be interesting to show y'all some early stuff and some stuff I'm selling now and stuff that's already sold ('cos i have an etsy don'cha know)
Wheeeee...!
Early Orange necklace, strung on yarn Early pink necklace strung on yarn again-actually now needs repairing/remaking. My dad sat something on it and the glass leaf broke. Poor thing :( The first necklace that I thought totally rocked-tigertail and a toggle clasp. The gorgeous heart pendant I bought from Whitby Pretty Star bead bracelet "Girly girl" bracelet, now sold
Thats just a fraction of the stuff I do. I do earring as well because they're so easy to make but don't have any on the DA account yet.
Because of the way I source my beads most of my items are OOAK, I can't reproduce them. So they're totally special in their own little way.
I'm also happy to work with you to create something for a party or just to go with that dazzling new outfit :D.
Well gee, Carrie you're saying (ok so you're probably not) where can I get this pretty beady stuff?
Well shugah you can find it here: http://www.etsy.com/shop/phoenvix
I'm also happy to work on a SP payment basis for a limited number of FIVE slots per month, working on a 4 mil to £ ratio. (Because I live in the UK but I'm happy to send my pretty stuff to live anywhere-in fact I think they'd rather enjoy it!)
So you know, I'll set out my little corner here and keep y'all who may be interested updated of new listing and stuffs.
SP Order slots-May 2011 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
UPDATE: New stuffs!
Couple of new things in the shop :D
Creamy Shell Bracelet-an experiment with some handmade links

You have some pretty neat jewelry designs there. How long have you been designing and making jewelry?
for about three years nearly. I was always interested in beads as I have a history of loving pretty things that come in many colours. My dad got me a wooden box with some beads and yarn and stuff in it and the rest as they say is history! I now have boxes of beads all over the show :D
Thank you :)

Oooooh, I own those cracked beads from your last example too :D I really like your works, very neat and nothing too complicated. I love to make costume jewelry myself, but I don't think I'm really good at it sadly XD
that was kinda my idea-a lot of the bead maagzines I get have gorgeous pieces to make in them but I just can't imagine anyone actually WEARING them! And crackle beads are awesome, they come in all sorts of colours and look really cool in light.
And don't give up-my first few bits and bobs weren't too good but I practised :D Nothing better than knowing that no matter what outfit you wear you can make something to match ;)

The problem is I usually don't wear any jewelry XD But I'm slowly changing my style so I might as well wear the many things I made (if I only could wear earrings <.< need to get holes again some day). I already sold some pieces to a friend who really loved them XD
