And what are the Side Projects?

The darling side projects are:

A Decipticon logo pin as a birthday present for a friend,

A commision for a Jupiter Pendant with the possiblity of more in the,

 

Student Sale which is happening in early December for which I have to prepare my summer production pieces for.

Well, one bit on the main project for jewelry. It will be an extremely tight schedule but I hope to smith a small toy drum for what else, the toy project in jewelry. Observe sketches! 

 

 



Since I don't want to keep filling the ending musical noise video with just various iterations of video game back ground music lets have some random Japanese animation from 1933! The plot as far as I can gather is that a Fox (disguised as a samurai) and a Tanuki (with his father) try to outwit each other in an abandoned temple. I do love classic old animation and, hey look at this bonus remix some one made about old cartoons.

 



 

And from there I guess I am obliged to post Disney's infamous Silly Symphony from 1929, The Skeleton Dance.

 



I'm going to have to stop myself before I post the entirety of early animation history here.

Summer/Fall Production Pricing

Dull post title but accurate! For those of you interested in owning a piece of jewelry I've got prices listed below on those ready to go. All earring posts and hooks are made of sterling silver, and the entire piece is sterling for the tube and curve designs. If there was something else you wanted from the original post showing off the pieces, don't hesitate to email me, the link for which is in my profile. And if you're not interested in these, there's a small preview after the price list of what I'm developing next.

 

 

 Tube Earrings $35

 Tube Necklace: $100

Triangle Earrings: $20

 "Reverse" Earrings: $10

 Click Clack Earrings: $15

 Curve Pendant: $40

Curve Earrings: $30

For the grand preview, I have finally learned how to drill seaglass! As you can see the ear wires got quite experimental, and because of that these aren't quite ready for sale yet, but they will be soon.

 

The other things I am looking at for production is a few older designs to improve upon and as always using alternative materials and recycling/upcycling. Not pictured are some ideas involving the square studs from studded belts which im still working out, among other things. Stay tuned!
