Rings are in bloom!

2009-04-04T14:45:00.000-07:00

I just wanted to post real quick and show you what else I've been working on! These little rings remind me of easter eggs because of their oval shape. They are sweet too! Both are vintage floral Japanese cabochons. The ring itself is antiqued brass and is adjustable to fit most sizes. I will be adding these to my site in a day or two. If you want more info on them just let me know! All jewelry items come gift wrapped in a sheer organza bag ready for gift giving.

ps...don't forget to sign up for my newsletter (at my website) to be eligible to win a free ring!

"For the first time in herstory...the MMCA Marketplace Artists are appearing in a bricks-and-mortar gallery as a group.
Although, we are a diverse group of women who meet often - on the World Wide Web - and most of us chat daily - via email, forum or cell phone - we have not exhibited together in a single location.
Arts on Union in Middletown, PA will open its doors to host us as a group during the month of February. If you are in the Middletown area please stop by and visit our exhibition.
Charter member, Christine Goldbeck is the owner of Arts on Union, a gallery & studio located at 203 N. Union Street.

Matching Etsy Banner & Shop Avatar!

2008-12-29T19:31:00.000-08:00

I created these to match the blog background but they can be used seperately. You would get the one-of-a-kind etsy banner for your etsy shop and the matching etsy avatar for your shop profile. Visit my etsy shop to purchase! Or, email me directly. This "Frenchy" set will sell for $5.! I am running a special just in time for you to brand your etsy shop for the new year!

Please note:

The banner and avatar will be emailed to you without my name on them. (My name is on there for my own purposes. Yours will not have text on the design...unless you prefer.) They will be emailed in the etsy size requirements. Only the font and/or font color can be changed. This is a one-of-a-kind design...so no one else will have your banner on etsy!

If you have any questions just convo me at etsy or email me directly.

Happy New Year,

Roxi
