Pot Charmers/Plant Stakes
These are adorable little beaded, copper wire jewelry for your plants. They’re made with copper wire and have a yellow and orange polymer clay lily flower attached to them. The flower is dressed up with orange, yellow and green dyed howlite beads strung on copper wire. There’s a copper wire tendril attached to finish them off. They hang from a loop on the wire stake and can be put in your plant pots to dress/accessorize them. They are about 8" tall.
Value $12.00 for the 2 pot charmers

Value $15
Skylar Bre'z
A beveled glass cabochon protects a striking art print, featuring two birds in a tree. With its bare branches, the tree makes me think of the isolation of winter, made so much easier by the companions we keep by our sides during the dark and gloomy times.
Seed bead embroidery in turquoise and black surround the bevel, with the neckpiece of dyed turquoise howlite rondelles and glass millefiori beads.
Length is 17".
Value: $78

-5 disk bead in orange and turquoise.1/4 inch wide and ranging in diameter from 3/8-1/2 inch, these beads make wonderful accents.
-38 inches of coordinating sari silk.
Value $29

Rachel Myers
Classic Princess Necklace
I got inspired to make this necklace when i saw these pretty greenish blue oval crystals sitting in a bowl along side with the rondelles which are two toned. The light blue Czech crystal pearls match wonderful with the Chinese crystal oval. I love it with antique brass chain and bead caps. The chain drapes beautifully on the neck. Looks great with almost everything.
Length: 24" long with a 2 1/4" focal
Value $38
Michelle Mach

Laurel Steven
Handmade Pink and Silver Floral Heart Pendant
This floral embossed heart is made from a custom blended pink polymer, then pressed into my proprietary mold of a bit of vintage carved plastic. The detailed strip that frames it is added after the shape is cut out. It is baked, and then colored by hand with a wax-based patina. The back is fully finished as well.
This one needed no glaze, I simply sanded and buffed it to a shine. There is large fancy jump ring embedded in the center, all ready for you to use in your creations, or put on your favorite chain, cord, or ribbon. It would look great with a simple black velvet ribbon, or any silver chain, or used as a focal for one of your own beaded or mixed media masterpieces! It measures 1.5" wide by 1.5" tall by 1.5" in depth.
