Missing Trades - Part 1: DMRHas2

Since I missed so many Tuesday Trades posts in the missing month I decided to do a series of the missing trades. Just to clarify, I got what I wanted in the trades and the shops I traded with got what they wanted...the missing part is just that I did not post them yet!

Okay, on to Missing Trades - Part 1


November was a great month for trades! I did sooo many! One of the cool trades, and the first of its kind was with DMRHas2. The reason it is the first of its kind is because I did not trade my jewelry for the items I got from this shop! No, indeed. I traded her some of my supplies that I did not think I would use. It was a great trade all around though.

I got these awesome little guys from her! Aren't they adorable! 


Cutest little owl charms ever! I love them so much...I cannot bear to use them! I could bear to get rid of these though: 


The metal beads is what she wanted. They were huge! Not really my style at all. I mean, what was I ever going to do with those?

Stay tuned, more missing trades to come!

DewDropsDreams



“Since childhood I had always watched the pretty brides in their lovely gowns walk down the aisle, and look for all the things that made them so beautiful. Sewing the gorgeous gowns was out of the question, so as I became older, I decided to turn towards jewelry, to realize my creative dreams. Each piece that evolves from the beautiful beads and my fingers is precious to me, and fills me with a feeling of fulfillment. Beads of any kind beckon me with a hypnotizing touch, and I'm drawn irresistibly towards them to design more vintage style, bridal and fun jewelry. I am also working towards creating vintage style brass-and-flower bookmarks and Victorian style necklace and earring sets, which I don't have any space in my shop sections to list, unfortunately. I also dream in beads, new jewelry that I want to start creating as soon as my husband and my kids leave home.”
Flower necklace Vintage ivory white faux pearls and cream cabbage rose

Vintage earrings in transparent clear jewel teardrop shape estate style

Vintage necklace brass charm scepter key chain with teal glass pearls and crystal beads

Vintage earrings ivory white faux pearl earrings brass filigree

Vintage bobby hair pins iridescent deep green blue, teal and turquoise blue chrysanthemums flowers on antique filigree

Flower earrings frosted violet purple lucite flower vintage earrings

BRIDESMAIDS EARRINGS set of 5 teal peacock vintage earrings


DewDropsDreams is obviously a great Etsy shop run by Juhi from New Jersey. Doesn't she make amazing jewelry?! I just love it! So you might want to start thinking about Christmas…or some bridesmaids that need jewelry!

Hey guys! I want you to meet Tina today! Tina is a fabulous artist from Australia! She is a really down to earth girl and creates some truly wonderful jewelry that she sells on her Etsy shop.


Tina has asked me to show you some of her favorite things from her shop:

“The Earthen Spirits, Nymphs, Angels, Elders, Pixies and other Forest Children are inspired by the hidden treasures in nature - the one's you find only when you are quiet, still and patient. They represent being at one with nature. Each has her own unique personality, her own beauty, and her own treasures.” 

Spiritual Earthen Angel Pendant with Full Wings and Silver Plated Quote

Queen of Abundance Handcrafted Clay Pendant

Handcrafted Clay Necklace with Green and Yellow Glass Beads

Tina enjoys “all things earthy, and things worn down by the elements - think mud bricks, old worn timber, moss growing in the cracks of rocks, and rusty things.”

Here are a couple of my favorite pieces!

Blue Earthen Clay Pendant with Czech Rocaille Seed Beads

Fairy Treasure Dichroic Glass and Handcrafted Clay Pendant

Don’t you just love her work? I think it is truly amazing. The way that she melds her creativity with earth and stone is so creative.
