Okay, I know I haven't posted in a long time, but I just can't think of anything new to say. Pitiful excuse, yes, but there it is. Anyway, I've been busy actually MAKING STUFF, which is something I rarely get time for anymore what with all this promotion rigamarole. Take a gander at some pieces from my new line of jewellery named after literary heroines.

You can see from these pics that I've been working a lot with antique brass. I like the vintage look of it. I love Trinity Brass Company's components. They have a gorgeous chocolate patina that they get through a special process involving oxidation; then the finish is protected with a non-toxic lacquer. I buy my Trinity Brass components through a fellow Etsy seller, Fab Beads
http://www.etsy.com/shop/FabBeads . I also love Vintaj brass components. I can buy Vintaj components at my favourite local bead store, Bead FX
http://www.beadfx.com , but they're not sold at all bead stores. I signed up as a wholesale buyer from Vintaj's website
http://vintaj.com, and now I can order right from their website. You have to be a registered business owner. You fax or email in your business number and tax number, or vendor's permit, in my case, and you get a password and username. Then you have access to wholesale prices on the website, and can order from them. Your first order has to be a minimum of $200, though. I haven't ordered from the website yet.
Anyhoo, that's what I've been up to lately. Night, all!
