A Grand Unveiling!

So, I finally did what I should have done months ago, and opened another shop...on Etsy and Artfire. They're not fully stocked yet (okay, not even my normal shop on Artfire is fully stocked, and my new one there is not stocked AT ALL...) but I finally got a jump on it on Etsy...say hello to The Winged Lion, my new shop for the selling of all things upcycled. I have new pages on my website, too.

In the coming (insert period of time, in the plural), I'm going to be transferring my upcycled pieces from Letterbox Lion to The Winged Lion. I'm also going to try and fully stock my Letterbox Lion shop on Artfire, possibly before I get to posting anything in The Winged Lion there. I know it doesn't sound like I've done much, but given that I have a final exam in 8 hours (OH SHOOT) this is really quite a lot what with finals season, packing and everything all up in the air for my research position for this summer. I've been slacking off way more than I should have and I still haven't made anything for the Year of Jewelry Project for this week! OH NO. I tell ya, man...life's crazy around this time. Maybe I'll get something made by tomorrow...but I guess you can play catch-up with impunity on that site so maybe I'll have to be lame and skip a week for the sake of tests and moving out.

Weeks 17 and 18 are Custom Crane Earrings!

So I didn't post last week because I just had one custom order and the picture was terrible, so hopefully posting both pictures at the same time will make up for how awful the pictures are.

One of these is for a review/giveaway that is in the works, and the set of five is for a customer who bought a similar pair from me and liked it so much that she decided she wanted to give some away as gifts! As always, they take a long time to make, but I'm excited to have so much jewelry to make, so much in demand. So...*pant*...much...*pant*...work...Just kidding. Actually school just ended (finals still to go, though, but who's worried?) so I'm doing well...though, I did cut off a chunk of my little finger at work today. Oops! I have been assured that it will grow back, by my coworkers, who I'm sure would know.

Anyway, toodles! I'm in such a good mood!
