Quite some time ago, Sharon Rose told me I must “open the nearest book to page 46, write out the fifth sentence on that page, and also the next two to five sentences.” I like the vagueness of the “two to five” thing. It’s like the originator of the tag was into it at first…
MMMBop
Make someone’s holiday month merry! I usually make my Boleyn initial necklaces to order, but I happen to have one silver M in stock and ready to go. If you order by Monday, I will send it out by express mail and you’ll have it in time for Christmas. Take a look at the gold…

Looks Can Be Deceiving
Jewelry photos are strange. All the small pieces look big … and all the big pieces look small. From this picture, you might think my new Wildflower Earrings were harmless little studs, but I assure you that they are actually big, bold, kickass earrings.
