I HAVE MOVED THINGS TO ETSY. You should find almost everything over at https://www.etsy.com/shop/LionessElise. Thank you, and big love to you all! See you over there -- and I hope to keep seeing you around Dreamwidth as well, because I plan to be posting more cool stuff about beads and rocks and jewelry techniques

Happy dance!

Oh, fantastic! I'd been hoping for ages that you would at some point have the energy and a short enough to-do list otherwise that a mega round-up post might seem like the thing to do. This is most excellent. :D

(PS: While you're at it, could you see about moving Minnesota closer to Ontario? It's very hard to volunteer to catalogue shines and manage lists from over here. Not cool, geography. Not cool.)

Oh, it's fun to see these all together! I have a bit of a mental list running of pieces that I'd go for if my budget either magically expanded or there was a massive sale - "Audience with the Queen", for example, has so much dragon bone I'd like to curl possessively over how the poppy jasper activates the rest; "The Dragon Who Wanted To Be A Boy Scout" & "'Recapitulate this,' said the dragon" have that glorious snakeskin jasper (and I love love love how the secondary stones chosen there bring out the scaled wonder of them - 'snakeskin' indeed!), which likely explains a lot about why "Strolling In Faeryland" hits a similar purple glorious button for me. I know someone who would look magnificent with "Keep Me In Mind" on her ears, which makes the title make me laugh every time I see it. And oh, "Ladybug Theology" and "It Was Simpler!" - I don't usually like explicit callbacks to non-abstracted stuff in jewelery, but you nail how to have those as enhancement and commentary on the main stones instead of trying to overdo it going the other

Excellent point. Have added Honey Badger links. (That was SUCH a fun day!)

o my goodness. O.O

A couple of these I've never seen. Thank you so much.

Hadn't seen "Scratch & Dent Princess" before, I like it!

(Still making my way through earrings etc. as I seem to always look at the long necklaces first.)

Oh, how I lust after "The Owl Who Saw Yesterday"! Reminds me so much of Mercedes Lackey's Valdemar books (that I am currently rereading for comfort, given how much stress the last few months have been and the next few will be). Kuari is the owl (in my head, at least). I wish I could get it, but haven't the money to do so. *sigh* Oh, well.

And that was me; LJ keeps logging me out and not letting me log back in!
