The Week in Review: Easter Jewelry, My Dream Pope Name

March 17, 2013 by WendyB

This week, the blog was mostly about jewelry.  Monday’s post on the Jewel of the Month featured my Easter-appropriate bunny stud earrings, available in both silver and gold as pairs …

Order your bunnies now in order to guarantee U.S. delivery in time to have a hoppy holiday. (For those who have already ordered, your bunnies are shipping out on Wednesday.)

Ahead of Valentine’s Day, I reminisced about the bad boyfriend who gave me a stuffed pig for my birthday. That inspired me to create a little pig stud earring, which I posted on the blog on Tuesday. Like all my other stud earrings, the pig is available as a pair or as a single earring.

I think my pig is so cute that you could give it to someone as a birthday gift without risking her wrath.

On Wednesday, the world met the new pope, Francis, which got me thinking about my Papessa Prayer Locket design, which I made after reading about the mythical female pope, Pope Joan.

The locket — shown in 18K yellow gold with diamonds — twists open. Click to purchase at Broken English.

While I was watching Pope Francis’s introduction, I was wishing that I could have a job that required me to go out on a balcony and announce my new name in grand fashion. And if that job were pope, I would definitely choose to be Pope Hilarius II.

On Thursday, I reminded y’all to follow me on Facebook, because that’s where I announce a lot of sales first. Speaking of sales, I have one gold genie necklace on a 16″ chain remaining. It’s reduced to $200 from $400. Once that genie is gone, I won’t make any more, so if you want it, get it now. There are still two of my silver wolf/dog necklaces left, reduced to $30 from $60.

They are both on 16″ chains. If you need a longer chain, I can do that for you, but I will have to charge you for the new chain. If you’re interested in that, email me at wbjewelry at hotmail dot com to discuss, rather than buying through the website. As with the genie, I won’t be making any more of the wolf design so it’s now or never.

On Friday, I unveiled my emoticon-heart stud-earring set.

I have one pair available for immediate delivery.

I took a break from jewelry on Saturday and wore some white jeans. Expect another outfit post tomorrow!

    You would make a wonderful Pope Hilarius II.
