I love making these, it keeps me busy for days. I started making them for friends etc but there's only so many you can make for yourself and friends without ending up with piles of them and as I'd spent quite a few hundred on jewllery supplies I thought I'd set up an ebay to sell them ..so i did and here it is.

Wow there rather beautiful, sorry i only have $5.00 in my purse lol

I'm really glad you like them. I wasn't sure how much to list them for, if they don't sell at 12.99 ill list the for 9.99 i think. Stupid ebay costs so much to list them all i have to sell 2 just to make the fees for ebay LOL

I know that Raven Eve, who has similiar jewelry to yours runs about $28 to $16. So, ahh, ya, well, now that I figure pounds to dollars, that's about the same. I think.

I will be so glad when we get out of this financial piss pot so I can start ordering things again. I want a couple of your pieces.

Financial problems do suck don't they!

I think they are totally worth what ive put them at if not more but it's ebay ..people expect really cheap and often not good quality things on there so if you have something which is good quality and want to charge a decent price for it people don't seem to buy it but I can't think of anywhere else to sell them.

Does anyone have any way i could improve them, colours, price etc?

The chokers are beautiful, Tristanna, keep up the good work! However, I have a suggestion about the ones which have a cross in the middle: instead of hanging the cross from the upper part of the lace, how about you hang it from the lower part of the lace instead of the beads in the centre? (I hope what I just said made a bit of sense.) That's how I'm trying to make mine at the moment and I think it looks just wonderful.

Anyway, it was just a suggestion. They would be no less beautiful if you left them as they are.

I understand what you mean and i shall try it that way

If you sell yours have you found etsy yet? Ive set up a store, everyone is soo friendly.

Nah, I'm not trying to sell anything at the moment. But in the future, maybe... who knows? Thanks for the hint, anyway.

Tristanna · 09-03-2007, 03:58 AM

I wasnt selling any of them till i realised if i kept making them id have tjem everywhere so its not really for the money, its just to cover costs and have something to do while im not well and cant work.

It keeps me busy

I tried what you said with the crosses, what do you think now?

I opened a store on ebay for them, 32 designs including new earrings now!
