busy day!

so today i spent aaaages rephotographing my jewellery.  i managed to do most of the necklaces, so now if you visit them you will be able to see how the jewellery looks on you! (i photographed jewellery on a mannequin)  this should give you more of an idea of the size, as sometimes it's hard to tell with a picture of just the jewellery.

i also made some new products! they are:

bird call necklace - £9

memento mori earring - £3.99

the second item is slightly different to the other jewellery i make, i like it though (:  how do you like the new stuff?

good week!

i won the jawbreaking jewelry rose quartz necklace (shown above) giveaway! i'm so buzzed 'cause i've never won anything like that before, so i can't wait 'till it arrives! also yesterday i went for my sixth form interview, i only applied for one college, farnborough sixth, and they offered me a firm place! i'm so happyyyyyy:D then this wednesday coming up is me and my boyfriend's 1 year, i can't believe time has gone so quickly and to top everything off, i'm having domino's pizza for dinner tonight, woooo! good week for me, lets hope next week turns out the same!
ps. did anyone watch skins? let down much?!

wednesday want - week 6: lazy oaf clothing

bones slob tshirt - £28

crosses slob tshirt - £28

for a while, i used to steer right clear of lazy oaf, as the clothing was way too vibrant and daring for me but they have recently brought out more toned down, mature clothing and i love it! many of the pieces involve crucifixes, which are becoming increasingly popular, even one of susanna valentine's new products features them! i like the simpleness (if thats a word!) of the designs, it's just a shame they're so expensive!

update

so you guys, i have managed to sell nearly all of the swooping swallow necklaces, with only one left of the white filled type (shown above) so if you want it, buy quickly!

also, i'm thinking that i need to re-photograph everything, i'll need to find some free time to do this obviously but the pictures of the products i have at the moment, although good for the site as they have a white background, are just kinda boring, i'm gonna aim to take some new pictures that are more creative, so proper photography:D might not be for a while though aha d:

i have a load of new products planned as well as a few giveaways! i just have to wait for the stock to arrive and i will photograph and list everything!

art!

so i took art for gcse, which i kinda love and hate at the same time, it's my favourite subject but there is sooo much coursework to do!   anyway i figured that as i needed to write a new blog i would share my work in progress with you guys :D here it is:

the person is me if you were wondering and it's about 1 and a half metres long haha, it's one of the pictures taken before the halloween party i went to last year, the one with the lookbook look (:  i still need to paint in the triangles and add in another on the left and when that's done i'll post some more pics.  i'm also making a dress and a 3d piece which is a huge skull :D i'll put that on eventually so yeahh, hope you like my work i guess(:

also, new stock coming really soon! :D

i'm off to the gym now, baayyeee!

tshirts??

sorry i haven't been writing in a while! i've been so so busy with school and everything, i have no time to blog!  anyway, i've been thinking lately that Susanna Valentine could expand it's horizons, i'm thinking t-shirts?? they would all be hand screened with cute and quirky little graphics.  i have seen tutorials all over the internet on how to make your own screens and, although it looks extremely time consuming, i'd like to find a new hobby(:  the tshirts would only be pretty basic with one colour (unless i'm feeling daring and blend colours?!) and bold graphics.  a few examples of what i'm aiming to get are shown below:

so yeah, the graphics would be block colours pretty much(: i already have a load of ideas but feel absolutely welcome to share some ideas of tees etc in the comments, i'd love to hear your opinions!

wednesday want - week 4: big deal clothing

 

this weeks wednesday want is the kings and queens of the party scene vest in navy from big deal clothing.  i love busy faded graphic tees and the graphics on this are so cool! definitely putting this on my wishlist :D  it's kiiiinda expensive for a vest at £14.99 but its worth it i reckon, if they made one with a white tee and black graphics i would so buy it!

tattoos (image heavy!)

heyy, sorry i haven't been posting much at the moment, i'm back at school now so have slightly less time on my hands!

i know this is completely irrelevant, but i'm so obsessed with tattoos at the moment! one of my aims is to get one by 2012 but i have a feeling that won't be fulfilled, as i am only 16 :L  i just thought i'd share some of my ideas, i'm afraid i can't source all of them but most are from the tattoologist blog (site is currently down for some reason..).  i'm most interested in birds, triangles (symbol for change) so only small delicate ones but i'm most interested in the infinity symbol and if i was to get it i'd get it with a group of really close of friends or something(: just a tiny one on the right of my left wrist, the back of my neck or behind my ear aha, but yeah back to the pictures, here goes:

hope i didn't overload you guys! what do you think?
