Holidays are great and all, but the real treat for me is gearing up for the holiday jewelry order rush, which means I get to order all sorts of supplies. It’s been awhile since I’ve ordered from Firemountaingems.com, mostly because it’s better to wait until you need a ton of stuff before your order. The [...]

Eric helped me out with the step by step tutorial photography I needed to get done before I could send out the book proposal with my projects.

So I finally had a full day to bang out some hemp jewelry – the last couple of batches I had were either mushroom necklaces or more complicated stuff, so I added in a batch of the sweet and simple for those of you looking for the understated and cool look. The beads featured are [...]

This is one of the most interesting experiences I think I’ve had lately. My friend ended up inviting Eric and I to come hang out at Anthrocon in Pittsburgh. I might not be a furry but I certainly appreciate the insanely good art that comes from them, so I was rather excited to go. I [...]

So I’m almost out of mushrooms pendants, and I needed to grab some from new and old suppliers. The mushroom above is from a new supplier for me, FireLily and it’s a very cool looking boro shroom. Not exactly my standard enclosed fare, and that’s why I like it so much. For a supplier that [...]

I’ve finally gotten through the reinventory process – something I probably should have done awhile ago. Ordering is back up on Phathemp.com, so if you were holding off by all means head on over. Eric got me an awesome camera for Christmas, so if you see the pictures changing around on the pieces you’ll know [...]

I discovered last week, after a particularly painful ER visit, that I have a large gallstone and my gallbladder must come out. I am getting it done laproscopically, so in theory I shouldn’t be down and out for long – but just in case, I wanted to let everyone know ahead of time, and I’m [...]

Usually when I incoporate metal beads into my hemp pieces, I prefer to use bali and hill tribe silver beads. These are the same or better silver content than sterling silver beads (.925 to .999), but there is one particular aspect of them that has me choosing them constantly. Well there’s a few reasons – [...]
