New Colors

These Heat Earrings have been my favorite design since I started making them. They are also my biggest seller.

Since it's Spring (well, it's trying to be Spring in Minnesota) and I love bright, fun colors, I thought this turquoise blue would be a nice new addition.

It's such a pretty, sweet color.

I've also decided to do a color of the month.... I'm going to let my fans vote from now on, but I picked TANGERINE for May.  I'm so in love with the pale orange, though I'm thinking I'll purchase the bolder, brighter Tangerine in Opaque next.  Orange is my favorite color, so why not, right?

The Heat in Tangerine are so summery...  I just love it!

All Colors of Heat are $15. You can purchase them on my site here or at Jenny Bunny on Etsy.



I got such rave reviews of my Flower Girl Earrings when I posted them on my facebook page that I just had to make more!  Here are six of the new colors.  I've even designed a new necklace to match, since a dear fan, Katrina, asked for that too!  She's been such a big help naming things, I couldn't deny her!


Facebook Fans get updates before everyone... Find Jenny Bunny on Facebook to be the first to know all the goings on!

Silver Is In

I've been listing a bunch of different items on etsy lately. Usually it's my antique brass designs, but quite a few silver pieces have been popping up too!

I just listed the Sky earrings today ($20).

The turquoise glass makes me wish that it hadn't just snowed last night.... It would be wonderful to see some sun and bright blue sky!


The Droplet earrings ($25) are one of my new favorites because they are so shiny.  Just imagine the sunlight hitting these... They would blind someone with their blinginess!  :D

I had a miniature version of them too, but they sold at a home party I had last weekend.  I'll have to make more since they are so cute.  Any colors you'd like to see?  Or should I stick with the shiny faceted beads?


Broken ($25) was a happy accident... I was being slightly impatient, which I'm known for, and the metal separated instead of fusing.  They were going to be a round hoop like the Sky earrings, but they have a little extra funk going for them now.  You can't see the gap in the picture, so you'll have to click the picture or link above!

I'm thinking of doing the Droplet design with these clear faceted AB finished beads.  They might be even shinier! 


Round and Round it goes, where it stops, no one knows!

The Round and Round ($15) earrings are my most basic design.   They are about 1 inch in diameter.  I've done a few different finishes on them too. 

To the left is the tarnished pair. I liked the black, but I polished just the edges for some added fun. You can find the original, shiny silver pair here: Round and Round in Silver!




I'm not feeling so swell today, thanks to my darling fiance.  He gave me his cold.  Otherwise, I'd run to my table and start making more silver pieces.  I think I'll take a quick nap instead! 

Thanks for reading my blog!  I did just remodel it a little so let me know what you think!


xoxo,
Jenny Bunny

Flower Girl

I was going to blog about these earrings yesterday, but I never got to it. They sold today but I still wanted to share them!

Dainty little earrings aren't my usual design, but I loved the flowers and didn't want to do anything too dramatic.


















I was amazed when I asked on my facebook fan page if I should make them in other colors and several people said they want them in ALL colors.

What color do you think I should make them in next?

Vicious

I spent 4 solid hours yesterday just creating! I hadn't even realized four hours had gone by until my stomach rumbled. I hadn't eaten ANYTHING all day. But that's okay though since I made 11 necklaces and 5 pairs of earrings.... and then I made a big dinner too.

The Vicious Necklaces are a few of my favorite pieces that I made yesterday. I have all 6 colors listed on my big cartel site, for you non-etsy users. Only three colors, the cream, lavender and cobalt will be available here: Jenny Bunny on Etsy. (I may get list-happy and add all the colors, but for now only those three are available!)

What's your favorite color?

***CLOSED*** Giveaway! Big, Funky Earrings

I realized, after posting the question about what to offer for the giveaway to my facebook fans, that my definition of "Big" and "Funky" maybe be slightly different from theirs.

Four Years

It's been four year since I opened up shop on Etsy. Time has flown. I can't believe it. I look back at what I was creating at first and it blows my mind how much my art has changed.

I just want to say thanks to all my fans, friends and family who have supported me over the years.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you!

xoxo

Sweetness

I've been listing like a fiend again...

Usually I'll just post a link on my facebook page to any new items. I'd love to blog about them, yet I think I'd be blogging every day all day until I'm caught up.

BUT, I wanted to share my thoughts on these necklaces.

Usually I make big, funky or long, simple necklaces because, well, that's what I like. Several of my lovely fans let me know that they'd like shorter, simpler necklaces too. Who am I to deny my wonderful followers?

Along came Sweetness in green, purple and smoky gray. The smoky gray is gone already, to a great friend and future bridesmaid, but it was just so perfect for her. She's just dainty herself!

I didn't want to do just a chain with a little pendant because I was afraid that it would get overshadowed by it. It's such a simple pendant anyway, right?

I think the string of beads really adds to the sweetness of the necklace... Hence the name. And the beads in the pendant stand out a bit more with the string up there too....

AND, boy am I freckly!

What do you think? Love them? Hate them?

xoxo,
JB
