      It’s kind of like sculpting with wool. You use raw wool & a special needle & stab the wool over & over again to make a shape ^_^

              I’ve been working hard on a new line of limited edition resin cast jewelry

              Original is sculpted in Monster Clay & then made into a mold. Sadly the original is pretty distorted and unusable after the mold is made. You can only get so many cast from one mold before it looses too much detail so they are truly limited editions. I have no idea how many I’ll make of each design so get them while you can! After the resin is cast I still have to clean them up with sanding and carving & then each one is hand-painted. So a lot of work goes into each pendant. They shimmer in the sun ^_^ and look so much better in person.

              I’ve listed a few here~CLICK HERE
              Starting bid is half the buy it now price. If you would like to order one for the holidays just let me know & I can show you images of all the colors I have. I won’t be doing any custom painted ones just let, because I don’t think I would have time to get it shipped before the holidays. But they will be available in custom colors soon!

              For the holidays I’ll be offering FREE worldwide shipping on full priced pendants (not half priced auctions sorry). Pendants are $15 (Naga & Wyvern) & $20 (Chinese dragon & Unicorn) each or $15 each if you buy 2 or more.
