Sparkling jonquil yellow glass beads – these aren’t traditional Christmas colors. So what? They’re lovely, they’re flattering, they’re affordable. And if you mention YELLOW after making a purchase in my Etsy jewelry supplies shop, you get a free pair of 18mm x 13mm pear jewels. **  ** oh – did I mention? Your “Deal of the Day” teardrop jewels I mentioned above? You get to choose the color 🙂 Good only till midnight, December 14, 2016 (don’t wait!) You know that the Pantone Color of the Year for 2017 is Greenery, right? Now honestly, I have to say I kind of get a laugh out of the Color of the Year thing. So far I’ve heard “Greenery” also called avocado green (remember the appliances of the 70s?), and a few other color names that I won’t repeat here. My point is, “olive green”, “olivine”, “avocado”, and some other color names I can’t remember right now, all refer to a slightly tangy, plant-like green. Pantone just has a Marketing Name for it. But hey, I’ll go with it. “Greenery” is my Deal of the Day” code word today. Mention “Greenery” after you order – in the Notes to Seller – and you’ll receive a FREE pair of green OVAL glass jewels, you choose the exact pair, sent with your order.  Such a deal 🙂 Think pink – and that’s your Deal of the Day special code: pink. I know, it’s not a “Christmas color”, but think about it. It’s feminine, it’s pretty, it looks good all year round, and it’s flattering to every skin tone. Pink. It works 🙂  So – the Deal of the Day – if you mention Pink in the “notes to seller” after you order from my online jewelry supplies shop, you get a free pink pair of 10mm rivoli jewels! And you can dicker if you really do prefer a different color. Win! Deal of the Day for December 6, 2016 – Order three pairs of these pretty teardrop beads (in crystal as shown, or any of the 26mm x 13mm two-jewel teardrops in my Etsy shop) – and when you order, mention WEDDINGS in a note to seller. You’ll get a fourth pair, free 🙂  One day only – such a deal! P.S. You can order more than three pairs if you want 😉 And the word is TEARDROP. Just for fun, I paired two different sizes of pear or teardrop-shaped framed glass beads. Add a jump ring linking the two sizes, and you’ve got a fab pair of earrings.  So for today – mention Teardrop *when you order*, and you get a pair of 14x10mm teardrops for free! Choose a color from my online shop 🙂 Offer is good for one day only, so now is the time! And today’s super special, fun Deal of the Day is: rivoli. Mention “rivoli” in the Notes to Seller when you order from my Etsy shop (yes, you have to place an order first) – and get a free pair of 10mm, round, rivoli faceted jewels in the color you choose! Rivoli-style faceting is when the faceted angles come to a gentle point on top of the jewel, rather than a flat “table” (as in ‘table tin cut’). Rivolis like these:  Choose any color onsite. Use the stones as earring drops, connector linnks, or pretty little pendants. Deal of the Day. Pretty glass stones. This is a win! The Deal of the Day at my Etsy jewelry supplies shop changes frequently – I aim to change it every single day but sometimes there’s a bit of delay. But still. Specials, discounts, coupons – they saves you money – that’s always fun! You’ll find it here on my blog, or check out my Vintage Glass Jewels Facebook page – I usually talk about my Deal of the Day there, too. For today, the Secret Code Word is EMERALD (and no you don’t have to use all caps!)  Mention EMERALD with any order – and get a FREE pair of 10x8mm octagon jewels. You get to thoose the color from any in-stock items. This will only be good for a day (till midnight tomorrow, 12/3/16). Come back to see more Deals! Make it easy on yourself. You have to make some Christmas gifts quickly, and you don’t have a lot of money? A pretty necklace and earrings will make your girls happy.  Add earwires to the vintage glass earring jewels. Grab a brass chain, slip a jump ring onto this pendant, slide it on the chain – and you’re set. Pretty jewelry, quick to make and easy to give. This is a win 🙂 P.S. I have quite a few glass jewels that can be made into a cool pendant and earrings set. If there’s a color you want and don’t see? Just ask! You remember when I said (okay, more than once) that simple is sometimes best? Take a look at this pretty octagon jewel, just as an example 🙂  These are vintage pendants and I only have a few – but even new ones are good, I’m not biased toward vintage (much). This is what “I need it now” DIY jewelry is about, you know? You have a simple silver or golden chain. Find a jewel like this, attach a jump ring, and slip it on the chain. Presto: gorgeous pendant in a wonderful color. It doesn’t get much easier. And it will look great. Seriously 🙂 I don’t even have to explain why I’m featuring these. Just look. Faceted red glass jewels. Sheer and vivid. Gorgeous.  Slip on a jump ring, add a chain. Instant fabulous necklace. Or add earwires: you’re done. They’ll be smashing with your new dress, for Christmas, or with your jeans. That’s the kind of jewelry you want (or want to sell!) Classy, vivid, easy, affordable. DIY? Oh yeah. |
