I love this post that heather from gathering spriggs made. it’s a combo of bumblesea (pictured below: the margot and hatched necklaces) and a clothing line caled saltwater. our styles match up quite well. the model in these photos is so adorable.

to do list: editorial style photos with the jewelry, new acrylic line, redo the site so the content is dynamic (ugh). better than being bored, I suppose.

I think I might actually run out of papers before I finish covering the wall, but I’ll take some before and after pictures anyway.

I bookmarked it thinking it would be a good way to get some free online exposure.

last night I did a vanity google search for bumblesea and realized that there are already several people promoting my old line on there. finding blog posts about my work is always flattering but seeing all these polyvore collections with my moustache necklace and reading all the comments about it takes the cake. they seems to lack many handmade items, I can’t believe my jewelry actually made it on their website.

if there was any doubt in my mind to bring back a few acrylic designs, it’s been erased completely. I was hoping I could give the new version of bumblesea a more cohesive structure by selling only silver necklaces. damn you, polyvore.

so for those of you who are still mopey about not getting one before I stopped selling them, chin up. they’ll be back in a few weeks.
