Hand-cast Pewter :D

Okay so I *wanted* to launch this design under better cirucmstances, but hecc, i am still celebrating xD

BEHOLD. A HANDCAST EAR CUFF AND SPARKLY PENDANT! Note the design on the pendant.... :eyes:

Recognize it? Probably not, it's pretty abstracted, but that design is directly inspired off the two-stroke engine/carborator on my Speedbird BP48-S moped.

That's right. It's NERDY VEHICLE INSPIRED art. I'm predictable I know xD

My friend put it together with the lovely malachite beads and red glass. These two are actually ones I meant to keep for myself, but since they're the only two ready at the moment, up for sale they go!

Here's the red glass version;

I'm starting to post my own original artwork to my Etsy store! Please feel free to check it out, even if you don't choose to shop <3

Interested in ordering custom made art? Check out my art comms! They're open, i've got hungry kitties to feed, and I'd love to make you some kickass stuff.

Phoenix Wright's Magatama - Made To Order

LINK HERE!

Unlock the truth hiding in the witnesses heart with this handmade replica of Phoenix Wright's iconic Matagama! A key item in all of his investigations, the Magatama allows Wright to see the manifestations of secrets hidden away by the people he talks to, bringing him closer to the truth.

This handmade collectable is made from an original 3D model, and cast in translucent green resin that has been infused with Stuart Semple LIT powder, creating a phantasmal glow when charged in sunlight. Each unit is handcast and given a high-gloss finish.

A great gift for any Ace Attorney fan, or a great prop for any Ace Attorney cosplay! (Note: does not actually reveal the secrets hidden within one's heart. You can try asking though-- you might get closer to the truth!)

Been thinkin about fantasy concepts

Okay, so you know how some tense situations would be like "hands where i can see em" or "hands up" to protect yourself from sudden attacks. But like how would this work for Mages, like i imagine it works for subduing a warrior or a mage who relies on staves or wands, but like, what about mages that can cast from their hands. You would want the opposite, "hands behind your back" or better yet, "hands behind your head."

However, this is even worse when a mage only needs concentration to cast, so now you gotta have them distract themselves by doing something more mentally challenging, like reciting your fantasy worlds equivalent of the gospel backwards or sing the alphabet out loud. Or my favourite, give them a fidget spinner and have them play with it in front of you.

Essentially this leads to the warriors, rogues and staffwielders having their hands up, handcasters doing an anime girl pose, and treating the mentalcasters like toddlers in preschool.

Jewelry Collections by Susan Shaw now available at La Jolie MLN

HANDMADE IN THE HEART OF TEXAS SINCE 1979

As a young woman inspired by her Southern surroundings, Texas roots, and world travels, Susan began designing her handmade jewelry collection as a creative outlet but it quickly grew to mean so much more.

About The Jewelry from Susan Shaw

Susan Shaw was exclusively wholesale for 35 years, selling to boutiques and luxury gift shops throughout the United States. We are headquartered in San Antonio, TX, where their talented artists make each piece of jewelry by hand, and their marketing, customer service, and fulfillment teams all work under the same roof.

FAQs:

What is handcast gold?

All Susan Shaw jewelry is either 24Kt handcast gold plated or handcast sterling silver plated. Handcasting is a plating method done by hand. This method produces the most consistent and highest quality plating possible and is far superior to standard machine plating. Their pieces are handcast with three coats of 24Kt gold or sterling silver. All items are plated over a lead-free, nickel-free base metal.

Is your pearl jewelry real?

None of their jewelry is made using plastic pieces. All items are comprised of genuine freshwater pearls or semi-precious stones, including genuine turquoise, quartz, coral, onyx, and agate. Their cotton pearl collection is unique and unlike genuine pearls. A cotton pearl contains a tightly wound inner-layer of cotton with a paper-maché-like outer layer. They are extremely light weight, giving you the benefit of bigger pearls without the bulky weight.

How long are the necklaces and bracelets?

Short necklaces featured are generally 16" and each include a 3" extender chain, and comfortably worn between 16-19". Longer chains are generally 30".

Bracelets are generally 7.5" to 8" but depend on the design and materials used. All product pages should include a piece's length and their team is working on model images for all designs for size reference.

How do I clean my Susan Shaw jewelry?

As is the case with all jewelry regardless of manufacturer or method of plating, alcohol based sprays (such as perfume and hairspray), if sprayed directly on to the pieces, may over time eat away at the silver or gold plate. In order to preserve the original state of the jewelry, Susan Shaw suggests you simply apply your sprays before putting on any jewelry. To clean your jewelry, use a dry microfiber cloth.

Beaky Earcuffs

Okay. Adding Beaky on makes sanding the earcuffs totally worth the absolute headache they are to make 😍 (my mom's husband also makes the prettiest dang jewelry with them)

makes such a pretty dainty metal click noise if i jingle it eeeeee

Jewelry asmr lmao 🤣

;v; yes, these are live for sale in my art store! And yep, i make both the pendant and the earcuff!

I buy jumprings though. I ain't got the time to wind and cut those from wire xD

You can also just buy the plain earcuff if you want to hang your own charm off of it.

No stabby holes in your ears needed to wear these :3 (i don't have pierced ears hehe)

Today is my 9th wedding anniversary so my husband and I had the day off together.

We played a board game, made a handcast, played some Baldur's Gate 3 and then had a Chinese for tea.
