Also- I got these badass rubber stamps of my logo for product packaging and I couldn't be happier with them. Used a copper colored ink pad and its just... *chefs kiss* perfection.
It's been a slow start to the holiday season and I thought it was time I start sharing some photos of things I've been making. How else will you all know what I've got for pur*chase unless I share them???
Give the one of a kind gift of wearable art work this holiday season, and support a disabled artist in the process.
Contact me for pur*chase and shipping details!!

“Many people seem to think it foolish, even superstitious, to believe that the world could still change for the better. And it is true that in winter it is sometimes so bitingly cold that one is tempted to say, ‘What do I care if there is a summer; its warmth is no help to me now.’ Yes, evil often seems to surpass good. But then, in spite of us, and without our permission, there comes at last an end to the bitter frosts. One morning the wind turns, and there is a thaw. And so I must still have hope.”
— Vincent Van Gogh
“If I am worth anything later, I am worth something now. For wheat is wheat, even if people think it is a grass in the beginning.”
- Vincent van Gogh
A little work in progress photos and a finished piece ..one of the larger chest pieces/collar style wraps I've been designing.
This features kambaba jasper focal and a brilliant green amethyst princess cut accent. Wrapped in recycled copper electrical wire and repurposed 1950s copper radio wire . Available and ready to ship out, just comment for details on how to make it yours.
More can be found on my website, www.jadedinkdesigns.com
Part of the bounty from the strawberry plants. This is their 3 year producing and they've gone almost wild this year. So many more berries than I expected, enough that I'm not entirely irritated with the birds that have been snacking on a few.
They tell you...
They tell you to be patient,that things will work out.
What they forget to tell you is that sometimes, you can wait forever, and the situation doesn't change because you don't. Doing nothing and just being patient will not make any difference. You have to recognize your part in whatever things are causing your life problems. What you need to know is that while you wait, you work on the things that you can to change your situation.
They tell you to work through things, that we shouldn't give up on one another.
What they should tell you is to never give up on yourself. It isn't up to you to keep anyone else from giving up. You have the power to make whatever life you want for yourself. When you choose to make your dreams and goals your priority, you give yourself the type of relationship you deserve; the kind that never gives up on you. The kind that works through things. It isn't about you and someone else. Find it in yourself first.
They tell you that you have to love yourself.
What you need to know is that there are days where loving yourself is the hardest thing to do, where your clothes don't fit and you feel like you could cry out of frustration because you are actually mad at your hair. Some days it just is going to be that way, and whether you know it or not, you're going to be ok. It's not always going to be a good hair day, and your favorite shirt will one day not fit anymore. Find the other parts of you that maybe you've overlooked before; the freckles that kiss the bridge of your nose, your eyes that look like golden stripes through chocolate and caramel ribbons, or the fact that you have the most genuine laugh I've ever heard. Learn to appreciate all aspects of the magic that is you.
They tell you to forgive and forget.
What if you don't? You don't have to forgive anyone, and even if you do, that doesn't mean forget the reason they needed forgiving in the first place. And, if the person you are forgiving is yourself, never forget why. We should hold ourselves to higher expectations than we do others. I may forgive you for being rude to me, but I won't be so easy on myself. But, even though forgive and forget seems to be a questionable theory, it still serves to remind us that we are all prone to need forgiving at some point, and I don't know what I would do if some of my past hadn't been forgiven and forgotten. Maybe you need to forgive and forget so that others may do the same for you. We need to be more conscious of the things we do so maybe we don't need forgiven for them.

From years ago, but something i desperately needed reminding of.
Work in progress
It's taken entirely too long to get to this point in the wrap...and of course, I'm indecisive about the focal stone.
Pretty sure I'll be going with this kambaba jasper i have, and accent it with smokey quartz or prasiolite.
I've got a little under a month til my next vendor event, and I really need to get busy wrapping up some new pieces and getting inventory ready. I also need to get some supplies ordered so I can keep doing what I love doing.
Art saves lives...it saved mine.
I've got quite a few pieces looking for new homes! All pendants come ready to wear on a coordinating chain, packaged in a gift box with a velvet bag for storing between wears. Shipping is $7 extra in the US. Made from semiprecious gemstones, recycled and repurposed copper wire, some being 1950s radio wire.
It's weird sharing things like this when the world is so heavy and people are trying to just survive right now...but, the thing is....I am trying to survive too. Art is a form of resistance, and for a disabled American, it's also the way I'm attempting maintaining my sanity.
There's more I could say...but... I'm not sure I've got the energy for all that.
I'm willing to make a deal on pieces at this point. I need to get some groceries and supplies, so it would be super cool if i could get one or more of these sold.
Let me know if there's one (or a few) you are interested in.

I made the cutest little bat for a friend of mine. I know I've become shit at posting, but have you seen the state of things lately? I mean...it's getting to be quite a hell scape and I truly regret never having the guts to leave the country.
I'm trying to find the passion to post new content on my oF site, but it's partly accepting the changes I've been going through.. which is totally normal, but it's not normal for me so I'm self conscious and struggling to pick my self esteem out of the dirt.
It took me nearly 3 weeks to realize my jewelry website domain had expired. That's how far in the dirt my head has been. I have over 30 pieces of jewelry to add to the site and I just haven't managed to get the photography done along with creating the pieces.
Still waiting for a hip replacement....i put it off to be available to my mom and dad after his knee replacement. It's been nearly a month since his surgery and he's been having a hard time getting back to normal. It's his right knee, so he can't drive himself anywhere and he's not great at taking care of himself either. It's made me think twice about having my hip done. Like, I don't wanna be fucked up for that long. I mean...i already am in severe pain. I don't want to do anything that makes it worse.
This was way more of an update than I meant to write.

That's not weird.
No more weird than having every branch of the government check in to the hotel I work at in the town of less than 5k people.
I swear if this is the beginning of martial law or government imposed lock-downs and curfews....let's just say I'm gonna hate to be right about the shit.
