I see someone else loves having a x of the month club. (nsfw)

Oooh, paper jewels is having a sample sale. I really love the technique she used with the lacquered paper.

I'm so happy! Earlier this summer I ordered $50 worth of supplies from my supplier, but they had been sent to school, and I couldn't get them for a month. But today, I finally picked them up. They are great, and I can't wait to get beading.

I always love an oppurtunity to get something in bulk- and I'm tempted to buy some of this soap- I really love nice soap, especially if I can get it a lot at a time.

I finally finshed my jewelry of the month club section. And none too late either.

I really love this corset. I have never worn one, but I love the look of them, and I especially love when they combine different fashions into one.

I found a new site that allows you to make a wishlist from any site on the internet. You can even make a list for items on my site.

From the Black Business Owner's Network. I would encourage people to donate:

Gaijin Geisha has opened up a new label- Candy Violet! Awesomeness.

It's time for a back to school clearance sale. Up to 75% off!

Now this is something I haven't seen before- want ad for promise rings. I won't go into my personal feelings about having ceremonies for teen girls centering on their sex lives. Just enjoy the quirky ad.

I can't imagine having a picture of Alan Greenspan up on my wall.

Eye makeup as conceptual art? There's always something unusual on eBay.

Lovely artwork. A tip- always look on DIY Marketplace for the hottest new designers. I know I don't post as often as I should.

An adorable tea cup chandelier. Perfect for any cute fanatic's bedroom.

Looking to shop black? Look here. Help build wealth in the black community- support black business.

I'm hoping for cooler weather ahead, so I'm making fall themed jewelry nowadays. I am starting to do more pieces with botanical influences, and lately, pink has been my favorite color.





These earrings don't match the bracelet exactly. I should make a matching pair- maybe tomorrow.

This is just one of the pieces I made today. I'm on a roll.

Finally! I have redone my whole website so that every button can be ordered as a magnet.

I have a nice bracelet up. I've been so busy redoing my website to allow people to buy magnets(I'm up to the Ns) that I haven't been able to get this bracelet up, so I'm selling it on ebay. To promote the arrival of magnets, I'm having a contest. People who subscribe to my mailing list get one free chance at the prize of 25 custom magnets. Also, subscribers will be able to buy tickets for more chances at the prize.

Earring auction- one day left.

I'm clearing out some of my excess beads- the auctions are ending in less than 24 hours, so get to bidding.
