SO not to talk about my various hustles on tumblr but: I bead pearls now!
I have 0 budget for advertising but I am trying to sell them because at a certain point being creative just fills your house up.
What they are: handtied freshwater pearls with sterling silver clasps
Why are they cool: for one, they're pretty affordable for a gem that's been treasured since antiquity. For two, pearls actually have the potential to be super sustainable and actually clean the water they're grown in! Like they truly might be the most sustainable gem you can buy
What you can do to help my lil business get off the ground: reblog this and follow me on my very small Instagram because that's where the makers are these days, or even check out my shop if you're feeling rad
