Superhero shop is open for a limited time!
my gorgeous pals in their superhero jewels, Canon Rebel XTi
I have a confession.
I have been selling a limited number of superhero necklaces on the sly since my maternity leave. It all started with the fabulous Melissa Summers of Suburban Bliss wearing one of my pieces on the Today show. So many folks wanted to order so I created a secret link... It was a great experiment to see what I could pull off with a baby in tow. (Answer: So much less than I imagined!)
Nevertheless, I miss working with those colorful bits and spring is coming and so is mother's day... so the shop is open for a limited time! (free t-shirts for those who order two necklaces)
When little Ben is crawling all bets are off. No more tiny glass beads that look like candy floating around the house. It's possible that I will reopen for the holidays but if you've ever wanted a superhero necklace, I would suggest getting one now! This motherhood thing indeed changes everything, even the things I didn't imagine.
Huge thank yous to everyone who has shopped with me over the years! And if I may be so bold as to ask, please let your friends know to order their superhero necklaces soon as well...

I am soooo 'feeling' ya on the baby vs. creativity thing. i have 4, my youngest being 9 months....if i can actually sit and design, for at least an un-inturrupted hour - it's a good day - and usually that is all i get per month these days. i love your blog...:)

Just one question, are you only making the necklaces right now? I would love a bracelet too. :)

Hey Supehero Girls!
LOVE your GIRL POWER "SUPERHERO" jewelry!
Especially the BIG SMILES worn by the models *smile*
Just curious ... Why did you choose the name "superhero?"

Lovely jewellery, the colours are so vibrant and fun.
I used to make and sell jewellery, until I became quite ill, I haven't touched a bead since then. You've inspired me though, so I may have to drag the boyfriend to a bead store to stock up and start creating again. :o)

Posted by: counseling credit seattle at April 9, 2007 07:51 PMOh ho. Just when I was wondering what to buy for bridesmaids' gifts.
Posted by: Leah at April 9, 2007 05:19 PMI have also put two necklaces on my birthday (04/18) wish list - grass and sky and sea glass...hopefully El Boyfriend will get at least one of them.
If not I'll just get have to get them myself. ;)
Posted by: Michelle at April 9, 2007 12:59 PMI absolutely couldn't go the rest of my life not owning a superhero necklace, so I asked my boyfriend for one for my birthday. I'm so excited to wear it and realize the full extent of my superhero powers! :)
XOXO

A secret link...you sly devil. The drive to create doesn't cease when you become a mother, take it from me.
Glad to see you are able to provide such beauty to the masses. At least for a while.

hi...i've been to your site many times and had to squeak with excitement when i read that you were re-opening.
just a small question...would i be able to pay by money order b/c of the no credit card situation?
thank you!

I KNEW that was your necklace on the Today show. I even told my boyfriend, "Hey, that looks like a Superhero necklace." AWESOME girly!

Are you still making the Angel kind? I've always wanted that one, but it doesn't seem to be on the order form.
Posted by: Jenn at April 5, 2007 02:26 PMI just ordered "joy" and I am sooooo looking forward to receiving it. Because I have to dress in suits and business wear, I love to throw on a piece of jewelry with color or something a little different.
Now I can have my Superhero necklace. Hooray!!!

Thanks for the heads up and Happy Mothers day to me.
P.S. Ben is scrumptious!

Posted by: Meg at April 5, 2007 10:43 AMi'm so glad i have one! and now i need to order a t-shirt...or two...
Posted by: la vie en rose at April 5, 2007 09:11 AMYay - I've been coveting a Superhero necklace for quite some time now!
Posted by: merry at April 4, 2007 07:40 PMthanks, grrl!
Posted by: swampgrrl at April 4, 2007 06:54 PMI'd love to feature your Superhero necklaces on my blog as a "Retail Therapy" post. I usually feature one woman artist, artisan or writer a week -- I think my readers would really respond to your jewelry. Is it okay if I feature your work? If so, how long will you have your shop open to accept orders?
Posted by: kris at April 4, 2007 05:58 PMdammit! now I want another one! that would make three... is that allowed?
Posted by: Vanessa at April 4, 2007 05:54 PMIt probably goes without saying, but I LOVE my superhero necklace (Joy), and I get compliments every time I wear it. I am one satisfied customer.
I'm tempted to buy a bracelet in the same style... ohhh so tempted.
This is totally the best news I've gotten all day.
Posted by: Dr. S at April 4, 2007 03:31 PMHi - I absolutely adore your jeweley and have wanted a necklace for so long. However, I'm starting to pay for college and going entirely broke. I was wondering if there was a way I could pay you in installments? Obviously not getting the jewelry until it's paid off. Please feel free to say no, I just had to ask. Otherwise I'd never know. :) Thanks
Posted by: Nichole at April 4, 2007 03:08 PMOh Wow! I was just thinking about asking you if you were going to re-open for business in time for Mother's Day. You must have read my mind!
I'm delighted to know that some necklaces are still available, but bummed to think that this may be the end of an era?...What will I ever do without superhero jewels to give as gifts and to inspire me?
Your jewels have become so important to me and to some of my friends who now own them as well.
I truly feel that wearing my superhero necklaces, earrings, etc... has given me my own special magic.
Guess I better get an oder in soon...! :)
Oh no! I have been wanting a Superhero necklace since SARK spoke about them in one of her books. Do you know how long the limited time would be? There are two I have to have, but I am getting a rather expensive tattoo next weekend. If nothing else I will use a credit card.
Thanks so much! You make beautiful jewelry.
