Get Bejeweled … And I’m Not Talking Computer Games

August 16, 2010 by WendyB

Drag yourself away from playing that addictive Bejeweled game and get bejeweled for real, and for less. Today many of my jewelry designs are on sale on my website. Check it out. Tomorrow, I’ll be at Zang Toi’s studio having my last summer sale. If you’re in New York, stop by. You’ll also get to see Zang’s beautiful clothing designs.

Click to RSVP via Facebook.

Last, but not least, I’m still taking pre-orders on three new swear-ring designs on Kickstarter through September 12. People asked me to add the NYC rings I wore to a Lady Gaga concert to the Kickstarter page, so I did. Here’s what they look like.

The GaGa rings aren't for sale!

The NYC rings are $315 for the set, including shipping anywhere in the world. You can also pre-order the OMG ($300) and LOLZ ($400) swear rings through Kickstarter, plus you can purchase the original F@#! swear rings and other pieces. To order on Kickstarter, you need to use an Amazon account. You won’t be charged until my Kickstarter project is done on September 12, so don’t worry about paying immediately. Your purchases through Kickstarter will finance the production of the new designs. If I don’t meet my $7,000 target goal, there won’t be any new rings (to find out more about Kickstarter’s all-or-nothing fundraising, read my post on Independent Fashion Bloggers)! I’m only $585 away from my target, but even after I hit $7,000, I want to sell as many additional ring sets as possible, because it’s more fun to see the rings on your beautiful fingers than to have them sitting in storage.  Need more persuasion? Gorgeous blogger ENC of Observationmode points out that swear rings are good for the lazy or laryngitis-stricken: “Now all you have to do is show your fist to anyone with whom you wish to communicate when you’re rendered speechless or can’t be bothered to open your mouth.” Click below to order.

If you have any questions, holla at me at wbjewelry at hotmail dot com.

UPDATED TO ADD: I always appreciate it when I get some blogging love. Thanks to Dayna Nicole for the swear-ring mention and to iDazzle for the may-jah interview!
