I have mixed feelings about my bead shop closing. I'll be sad and miss it as I love beads, beading, counting beads, looking at beads, sorting beads. thinking about beads.... and I've had the bead shop for almost 15 years. On the other hand, hopefully, I'll have more time to create jewelry and to continue to delve into the paper-crafting world!

I recently listed almost thirty new items in my Artsie Designs shop on Etsy.
These adorable heart earrings sold within minutes! They're on their way to a wonderful customer in Denmark.

I've been meaning to list these pieces for quite awhile. I love the graphic/comic quality of them. A super hero meets nature kind of feel. Each is hand-painted on shrinkable plastic then baked for durability and finish.
Super hero, maybe, vroom vroom motorcycle mama? Definitely!
I feel like shouting "fight the power" with this one. Maybe just a "fist bump"?
Reminds me of a circus ... or candy ... or a petri dish experiment gone awry.
And this one is just plain pretty. Love the lyrical quality of the ribbons.
I'd love to know what you think of these!
