Big Green Rupee

Big Green Rupee

I don't know why, it just made sense at the time: mde a three-dimensional rupee with different designs on each side and "stuff" it so that it's soft and squishy.  I'll bet that makes sense to someone.  It can be a pendant, a keychain, or just a bauble of bauble-y goodness, and I'm always open for commissions.

Big Blue Rupee

Big Blue Rupee

After green comes blue, right?  Well, I thought so.  It's a pendant, a keychain or a general bauble of geeky goodness, and I'm always taking commissions.

Double-sided three-dimensional itty bitty rupees!  Well, I'm excited.  They're available as various things, from charms to earrings, and I can always be commissioned.

Updated Hylian Royal Crest Corset Cuff

Updated Hylian Royal Crest Corset Cuff

Ask me where my love of gaming began and I'll tell you a tale about a vicious little game called The Legend of Zelda. No matter how many times I had to put the controller down (for my own sanity and the safety of others), I always came back. I don't think anything will ever overcome Ocarina of Time as my favorite, though.

The color scheme was inspired by one of FusedElegance's designs. The rest is... all me. All painfully me. From creating the pattern from several sources to the (obviously) actual beading and design. There are 2,978 glass beads here, woven together individually by hand, over the course of a little over two weeks. In late 2014 I decided to update this design with far stronger and more reliable closed brass jump rings, allowing a stronger hold for the "corset-style" lacing with emerald green silk ribbon (included), so it can still fit to any wrist size. Nothing but the best for Hylian royalty.

I can't have all those other colors and not gold!  So I thought.  For use as any kind of charm or bauble imaginable, and I'm always taking commissions.

Big Purple Rupee

Big Purple Rupee

People kept bugging me for a purple one.  So I made a purple one!  Yeah, that's about it.  It can be a pendant, a keychain, or really any kind of bauble-y charm, and I'm always taking commissions.

A Touch of Triforce

A Touch of Triforce

I wanted to do a simple project before getting started with a few things I have lined up, and... well, it is simpler than some of the things I've been delving into. It didn't take me two full days (ha ha, I am known to work until midnight), so that's simple, right? ...Kinda?

Anyway. I am so insanely pleased both with the way this turned out, and how my camera caught the luscious dark green beads. Of course it refused to focus on the clasp and so that "from the back" picture was the best out of five. Argh. But not the point. I adore this. It pleases me.

Reversible Beast Wars Cuff

Reversible Beast Wars Cuff

As much as I adore G1 Transformers, Beast Wars kind of remains my favorite show, and the toy line was... dramatically unpredictable.

This took... some time. Two very large, very complicated panels, woven so that they rest back to back. It's easily and completely reversible in case you're the Blackarachnia type. Plus, it's exceedingly versatile in the ways it can actually attach to a person's wrist, but automatically comes with a long black silk ribbon.
