She keeps getting thrips, so I had to take drastic measures. If this works, I'll reunite all her parts when I repot.
She's getting an isolation pod this afternoon.

Went to post these pieces and realized they aren't finished. Not a one of them.
I'll be swapping one of the pendants, then adding a dangle to the end of each extender chain for weight and a finished look.

I've had high anxiety AND a nasty bug, so you know what that means....

My new year's resolution is going to be bringing my jewelry business back from the dead. I miss it, and I have THOUSANDS of dollars in unused supplies just taking up space.
Maybe even a re-brand?

It's been a full month of heavy wear and using my tipex nails as tools and they STILL aren't budging. I think it's time to refresh, though.
Side note: the jelly black surprised me. I didn't expect to love it this much.

I've found a love for gaming, but I'm an artist at my core.
I'm trying to figure out how to build a community that appreciates both spooky gaming AND beading. Is it doable?

Unpopular jewelry opinion:
I DESPISE jump rings. They always pull apart so quickly.
Instead, I attach clasps and extenders with wire wrapped links.
This post may or may not be inspired by a failed jump ring.

I've been a jewelry artist since 2012. Almost all of my TikTok videos are jewelry/craft content. But it took liking a few swiftie friendship bracelet videos to land myself on beadtok.
I'm so happy I finally made it!

Just realized I missed a stream last night! I'm still focusing on getting this little beast to heal up, so my brain's not in the game.
How about we make up my missed birthday stream next Sunday?

Vet not concerned. Tilda will be antimicrobial-ed, balmed, and fully shirted until her appointment on the 27th.
Now the anxiety crash is hitting. Having a pineapple marg and zoning out for the night.
Tomorrow's stream is uncertain. But mid-day Monday is looking good.
