40% off Use Coupon Code: GOODBYE

It's time to close up shop...but I do so reluctantly!

We sold our home, but our new home won't be ready until Jan 2014, so we are moving in with my parentals, which means I won't have space to work on ANYTHING. It will be cramped.

So I have a 40% off sale at my shop FancifulWish , just use coupon code: GOODBYE to get the discount.

I'm sad but I will be reopening for sure in 2014 - so it's not total bad news, right? Right.

Xoxo,
Yolanda

Hand Stamped Metal Jewelry

One of FancifulWish 's best sellers (when I have the time to make them) are my hand stamped metal jewelry. I like the act of pounding a metal stamp into a piece of metal. Maybe it's stress relief? I bought my first kit from Beaducation . And yes I started off with a kit because I didn't know what went into metal stamped jewelry. I would have taken a class from my local jewelry store but I was at home with a newborn with no babysitter, so learning on my own was the way to go. Now I will warn you - making hand stamped jewelry is NOT cheap. You can get away with using a hammer you have at home to pound your letters into your metal but the letters themselves are pricey. I've only managed to collect 5 different types of letters, 3 of them the same font in different size with numbers included. The other a different font in lower and upper case sizes. And then there are punctation stamps and design stamps....not cheap. Alphabet s...

What's New: Paparazzi Accessories

It's been awhile! Being a stay at home mom of two has really been something else. I thought I was busy with one, but with two, it's been on another level of madness. All of this busy-ness means I haven't had time really to work on my Etsy shop. It's still open but I've kept hammering metal to a minimum. So for now I took the jump into a new venture. I just signed up to be Paparazzi Accessories independent consultant. Yup...who knew, after making my own jewelry for $5 years that now I'm selling jewelry designed and manufactured someplace else. What is Paparazzi Accessories exactly? It's jewelry at the sweet price of $5 and that's hard to come by. The products are designed in the USA but manufactured in China. I own a bunch of their earrings - I'm a sucker for hoops, large and small. And I love their stuff! I call my shop Leylah's Jewels - which is a play/combo on my children's names. We'll see how things go, so far it...

Echoes of the Universe / Namaste / Tree of Life

Ever have a feeling like the universe is listening to you and things happen that reflect that? And you stop for a moment and say hmmm...I was just thinking that or you had just been talking about it or reading about it... First it was the dream catcher. I saw the bracelets online and wanted to make one but didn't have time then a few weeks ago I saw that my nephew had a dream catcher hanging in his room, which used to be MY room growing up and I had my own dream catcher. SO I finally made the dream catcher charms.... Then I was talking to my husband this weekend about making tree of life pendants because I saw them on Pinterest. BUT I used to make wire trees, years ago, they looked like this...I remember teaching my co-workers to make them for a fundraising basket we were putting together. I loved these trees. But my husband is Jewish and said it was perfect I'd make tree of life pendants because there is a Jewish holiday Tu b'shevat (it was in...
