Snippets

So here's more of the lariats I was talking about.

Decided I hated the one from last post with the doll arm. Well, decided I hated the doll arm.

Sometimes you want something to work, you want to force it to work and it just wont. You know dat feel?

And I realized that I was putting off listing the stuff from last post and it was because I wasn't happy with that one piece. You gotta listen to your subconscious.

Here's one using a ring I've had for a wile and never could find a good use for.As you can see, lots of simple, thin salvaged chain, ...

Oh also, the universe has been conspiring to keep me away from my 'puter and my makings for the last 3 or so days. Aka, the weekend. Aka, weekend doings with the fam. Aka, leave me alone I need to list shit!

A resin piece, a stone and a medal is the basic idea, with variations.

Lots of variations.
The little shimmers I added to the resin mostly look like shmutz in the photo so I blurred some of those right out.

Meanwhile, you should all go check out this post on ShipwreckDandy's blerg, along with comments. Something about her soothes me: she just has zero issues about being completely different from anyone. Reading about how she does her thing made me realize I'd been fretting about unsold items again and how I need to just let that shit go.

Here's a little baby.

Anecdote interlude:

The other day I was walking my dog and my mom and a girl said, "Nice tattoo." So mom asked me what it said. Remember it? I got it on the 2nd anniversary of being fancifuldevices. You know how I use that CS Lewis quote here and on my shop announcement? If I find in myself desires which nothing in this world can satisfy, the only logical explanation is that I was made for another world. And you may have noticed under my shop name on etsy it reads "otherworldy desires."

So I was explaining it to my mom, "It's because of my shop quote I always use..."
And she interrupts, "Oh ya ya, I know, I know. Is.... umm... " She gestures out towards the street, "'If you like dis seengs.... you are from oder planet."

So that pretty perfectly sums up my mom's feeling towards everything I do, snarf, cackle, snort.

Ok, blogger is really starting to get to me.

Whenever I show very bright white images, ie, the necklace on the mannequin images, blogger darkens them up to a dull grey.  Thanks Skye for the tip! I'm trying out a different background color like you suggested.
Looks crap and pisses me off!  It's only working on the images I drag directly from etsy but maybe my new background isn't dark enough?
A Difficult Child.
Whatevs, got some shit listed finally.
Praise the Women.
Lots of the resin pieces are going as charms or pendants.

Adam and Eve.
Or earring pairs.
The Courtship.
I still have tons I haven't finished or photoed. Me and my insane batches.
Animal Companions.
Here's an animal pair, could also be bracelet links.

The Faitful.
Some nuns for ya.
The Ladies.
Some Vermeer.

The Mothers.
These chicks.

And there's also some as-yet-unlisted transparents, which in the photos all you see are the grungy mistakes so that sucks. Oh well.













And I finally listed these:

    The Lightless Sector.                The Sweet Babes.                   Rome.

Frail Deeds Dance.                      Red Moons.                             Romans.

I'm also putting some pieces that have been around too long on deep discount. If they don't sell, they're out, so snap 'em up if you want 'em.

Sale. La Exploradora.                          Sale. All-Seeing Love.                    Sale. The Mother.

Sale. One Step.                                Sale. Astral Light.                  Sale. What Is This Thing Called The World.

And I finally blogged it all! Woo hoo!!!
OH! If you have a blog you'd like me to look at, perhaps for inclusion on my blogs list which I have neither checked nor really refreshed in a long time, please convo me or leave a link in the comments. I feel like I've abandoned lots of you guys, idk.
