I remember watching westerns all the time growing up and one thing that has always stuck in my mind was the look of the crosses and the "Spanish style" of the necklaces. I always thought they had the feel of the Old West and I tried to convey that through this piece.

Aquarius (Waterlily) Soy Wax Melt by D

2009-10-24T06:27:00.000-07:00

Product Description:

$ 2.50

Aquarius ~ I am a true blue Aquarius, baby! Each time I think of my zodiac symbol, I think of water and of the Flower Child movement. ;-) This scent brings these two things together into one item that represents both: a waterlily. This is a very fresh, clean scent and is my #1 seller.

This listing is is for one (1) clamshell package containing 6 soy wax cubes. Approximate weight is 3.5 oz. Dye free.

Wax tarts are perfect for those who want to change scents frequently or who like to mix and match different scents to create custom combinations. Simply break off one or two wax cubes and place them on top of a tart burner (tarts can also be melted on a candle warmer if you put them on an appropriate, heat-resistant container). Once you light the tealight underneath, the heat will melt the tart and release its scent. Each cube gives off approximately 8-10 hours of scent.

These tarts are created using soy wax, a renewable resource that helps support American soybean farmers.

Thanks for looking! :-D

Boho Tribal Necklace By EclecticOddities

2009-10-10T06:39:00.000-07:00

Product Description:

US $65.00

The first in a new line of earthy, eclectic necklaces, Tribal #1 is a very long, 58 inch strand, of hemp twine and a taupey sand colored ribbon, on which is strung wood and glass beads. Also included are unique enameled bells, gold colored chain, mesh ribbon encasing metallic embroidery floss, and a good sized oxidized brass bell at center front.

This OOAK necklace can be worn as a single long strand, or can be looped over the head twice for a more standard length look. The ribbon is in the center front portion, and is knotted loosely between each bead. The upper portion consists of 3 strands of hemp strung through large-holed beads, and in some places, each strand has a small bead which are clumped together for a more 3-D effect. The 3 strands are knotted here and there as part of the composition.

It has a very Bohemian look about it, and would go with anything from jeans, to a gauze or linen dress.

Great classic image of two wonderful women all dolled up. The big hats are just "too much". Good friends will stick together no matter what- just like most thighs........(*sigh*)

My magnets are made using recycled tin can lids. I use high quality images printed with waterproof inks- each image is then sealed several times to keep them looking clear, crisp and terrific for years.

Of course, they are NOT breakable either- drop them, lob them at someone- whatever! They are also free of any sharp edges. Probably should not immerse them in water, that might damage the image. Not sure why you want to do that- but, this is my standard disclaimer.

Of course, they have a strong magnet on the back (duh!) and come beautifully packaged in an Organza Bag (see 2nd image). The color of the bag will vary.

Magnets are always buy 3 get one for nothing, notta. List the desired complimentary magnet in the paypal notes to seller section when you check out and I will add it to your order. No additional shipping or nothin! (if mailed to the same address)

For the same price of a greeting card, why not give a FUNctional gift that will cause them to think of you every time they go to open the refrigerator or filing cabinet.

Most common magnet size is approx. 2.5”-3.5” in diameter. size varies according to what my family and friends have eaten!

There is nothing better than the gift of laughter and handmade art.

These are wonderful gifts for co-workers, teachers, and friends. They are lightweight and easy to mail- you can just pop them into a card and mail them off.

i would be more than happy to save you time and postage by sending them directly to your friend with a note announcing your gift. Individual magnets cost US US US $1.35 to mail. i do combine shipping for multiple purchases sent to the same address

Inspiration / Story behind this Product:

I just adore vintage images and nostalgia. I also love fine art and classic movie characters. Plus, I am very sarcastic and find humor in most situations. Combining these elements- I have come up with my awesome magnets. I LOVE doing special orders. All you need to do is purchase a custom magnet from my shop and then email me the image you would like immortalized on a magnet. It can be a photograph, childs drawing, or illustration. If you have a funny saying in mind- just shoot me your idea and I will find the perfect image to go with it. My magnets are wonderful, thoughtful, inexpensive gifts that will last and last and last!! I welcome any questions or comments. XOXOX Paula

This is my fun, new pendant design. Each pendant created this way is absolutely unique! I cannot reproduce an identical pendant, so if you see one you like, grab it while its available!

This pendant is extremely light-weight and measures 1.5" in length including wire hanger x 1.25" in width.

Mica gloss was applied to create the blue and purple colors onto shrink plastic. Images were stamped onto the ink, then the plastic was shrunk. Finally a stamp was pressed into the pendant at the end to create dimension. Pendant face is finished with a glaze and then the silver wire is attached.

This listing is for pendant only! Necklaces may be purchased in other listings in my store.

ABOUT THE CANDLES...

Every candle I make is hand crafted and hand poured with 100% natural palm wax, high grade liquid candle dyes and premium quality fragrance oil.

While many candle makers mix their waxes and add artificial stabilizers, I do not. I only use 100% natural palm wax without artificial stabilizers.

The beautiful crystallized appearance is a natural occurrence with palm wax.

Every candle is poured at the optimum temperature to "lock in"the fragrance. What you smell on the top is what you get in the middle and is what you get at the bottom of your candle.

These handmade black and silver lined gold fringed earrings have 15mm silver lined gold bugle beads on the fringe. It gives them a rather elegant look. These earrings are almost 3in. (7.62cm) long. When measured from the surgical steel ear wire, they are nearly 3 1/2 in. (6.85cm) long. They have lots of movement and sparkle to them.

The surgical steel ear wires make them hypo allergenic.

Sometimes my family get involved too, especially my mum, she knits amazingly quickly.

A full 16 inch strand of Smoky Quartz 4-sided oval beads. They are approximately 15 x 11mm in size.

I have been beading for about 10 years. I have been know to over indulge when purchasing beads, often buying 2, 3 or more strands when 1 strand was probably enough.

I have now decided to share my over stocked inventory with you, as I have just about taken over every room in the house.

I will continue to make jewelry and sell it in my other Artfire Studio "AccessoriesByGottjoy". And yes, I'll probably still over indulge myself when it comes to buying beads - which means I'll just have more to sell in my destash studio.

I love these earrings they are so easily dressed up or down, crafted with sterling silver and amazing blue apatite these earrings are absolutely fantastic. They measure approx 2" from the top of the earwire.My jewelry is a mirror.

Not only does it show the reflection of myself,but also of you and your personality. I am compelled by a love triangle. My need for a creative venue, the need for beautiful objects to be manipulated and your need to be beautifully adorned.

I most frequently work with Sterling silver, Gold filled, Copper, Brass, Leather,Gemstone, Swarovski Crystal, Pearls. However any medium that inspires my imagination to transpire can be found in my designs.

Pair of Hair Sticks-antler with turquoise inlay

This is a matched pair of antler hair sticks with walnut wood from our local area of Utah. We placed a turquoise inlay in an empty knot area of the wood capping the end of the hairstick. They are 5 1/2 inches long.~These are amazingly strong hair sticks made from deer or elk antler, which are locally shed.~ ***No animals have to be harmed to acquire antlers. They are shed each year and regrown in a natural process.*** *Each one is finished and smooth. The ends are capped with a beautiful piece of walnut from our local area.This pair has a turquoise inlay in one of the wood knots.*These will hold an immense amount of hair without breaking.This pair is 5 1/2 inches long.Theyare curved and so sit along the head very comfortably.

Artisan Biography for NinjaJenn
Hi there! My name is Jenn and I am from North Carolina. I have been a crafter and all-around dabbler for most of my life. I started out painting, tried my hand at sculpting, fell in love with sewing, and am currently enamored with resin and decoupage.

The things you find in my shop will probably end up being as varied and random as I tend to be.I will try to stick with one "love" at a time... but I make you no promises

I was so excited when I received this vintage trim. It is so beautiful, with it's navy and antique gold sequins and beading. I've been searching ever since I received it trying to find more like it.
I hand sewed all the trim on, no glue, so it is securely attached.
Headband will fit anyone because it is secured by ribbon. I left the ribbon long, so you can decide how much you want showing, if you want to tie a bow.
Beaded area is approx. 19"

Thank you for checking out my shop!

I'm a romantic at heart. My Wedding day, and the birth of my beautiful daughter were the best days of my life. Those special moments combined with my love for vintage is were most of my inspirations come from. I love working with pearls, lace and fabrics which inspire me. Vintage pieces are so special because they have such a unique story to share. I try to give them a new life recreating a piece so their journey can continue and someone else can enjoy the beauty.

I'm a stay at home mom and when I'm not busy with my daughter I'm creating accessories inspired by things I find beauty in. I would be honored if one of my creations I designed ends of in your heart. Please contact me if you have any special requests.

Product Description:
This pendant was hand shaped and then stamped with an asian lantern theme. Two bails were then securely attached for a sophisticated look.A 22 inch ball chain is included.

I believe, very strongly, in the beauty of an organic piece of art. Every piece I make is hand formed or thrown and then stamped, carved, glazed, etc by hand. I think that every piece has its own story to tell and that it would be impossible to tell the same story twice. Due to their handmade nature, all of my items are one-of-a-kind. You will never see the exact same piece twice.
