lettering on tiles

2009-12-01T10:38:00.000-08:00

Vinyl lettering on tiles is a great way to give handmade personalized gifts! I have some premade, or I can cut a favorite saying of your choosing! You can buy the lettering already on a tile, or you can just get the vinyl and apply it to a tile of your choice. Great gift for anyone! Average price is $5 a square foot. Less for fewer words. I can give you a free quote anytime!

2009-11-17T10:35:00.001-08:00

I am so excited for the holiday season! I would love to help you out with your Christmas shopping! Instead of going to local craft fairs that are so expensive, you can order many different handmade items from me! I am ready to take custom orders for jewelry, beaded watches, vinyl lettering, ribbon bows and flowers for hair, handmade cards, and anything else you think I may be able to do! Contact me via e-mail and get your orders in before Christmas! Please not that a lot of the jewelry here is no longer available... I make it as it gets ordered so I don't have so many sitting and waiting to be sold... If you like something that is posted here, I can make it similar, though!
Thanks

NEW! Vinyl for dry-erase calendar

2009-11-10T16:33:00.000-08:00

I have designed these two styles of calendars and am able to cut them out of vinyl. Also from each style you can choose with or without the days of the week. I am selling the cut vinyl for $6. frames not included. (If you want the days of the week on the top, it is an extra $1 just because of the extra time it takes to peel the outsides of each letter). Can easily be personalized. The vinyl is cut into a 12"x18" calendar grid and ready to be placed on the back of framed 16"x20" glass. This makes a perfect gift! Use dry-erase markers for an easily eraseable month by month calendar :)

can't stay away from the computer

2009-10-23T20:58:00.000-07:00

I have been playing around with some fun software I have and have enjoyed cutting more fun shapes with my Cricit machine! I can't imagine crafting without it! This is an awesome site I found that has cute downloadable images for me :)

girly flowers and bows

2009-09-10T12:01:00.000-07:00

more interchangable watchbands

2009-06-30T07:53:00.001-07:00

These are only a portion of what I have made... No two are alike, so you know when you buy one, it will be unique and one-of-a-kind!

Sizes vary, but I can make it to fit you!

Interchangable watchbands

2009-06-23T08:37:00.001-07:00

I am very excited to announce that I have finally started making these chunky beaded interchangable watch bands! They have become quite popular in the last year and have had a few requests. Here are some that I have made so far: There are clasps that hook onto the watch faces so that you can change the band to match your outfit!
The beads are on stretchy cord for easy on and off.

I have a large variety of beads. Glass beads, wooden beads, plastic beads, metal beads, and shell beads and if I don't have it, I will buy it at your request!

I also have a few different colored watch faces. (mostly white, though)

If it doesn't fit, I'll change it to fit you!

Prices will be lower than most! I have seen these selling for over $25 each! I am selling the watch faces for $8 each and the interchangable bands range from $8 to $14 depending on the beads... DISCOUNT AVAILABLE! If you buy one and wear it, and refer people to me...and they buy some, you'll get $5 OFF your next order of $10 or more!

These are only a few examples. I will be making more, and would love to custom make one for you.

Well...this should be interesting...I HOPE! Never having done this before, I have no idea where to begin. Within the past few months, I have enjoyed many features that the internet has to offer, and by doing this, I hope to be able to provide better service to those interested in me and my handmade jewelry. Today was the day of my first craft show appearance where my items will be displayed for the public. I am excited for others to be able to see my creations, and hope that by having my things displayed there and here on the internet, that I can get many people interested in my things. I will regularly post pictures of some of my items, so check back often!
