i have that future dream of one day opening a small gift shop, selling the things that i made. The jewelry i make and sell are all precious, or semi-precious, stones (gemstones as well). My whole life, i've been obsessed with rocks (pretty rocks to be exact) and right now, i live above a gift store called Rocks 'N' Things. most of the materials (mostly the rock beads) i get are from that store, or from the rock bead catalog i get in mail sometime.
to be clear here, I make necklaces, anklets, bracelets, and earrings. no, I do <u>not</u> make rings, for all those rock beads are too big and chunky to be comfortable on a finger. I have made over 200 jewelry, and sold near or over 100 (i lost count lol) I've started making them during high school, in 11th grade, and started selling them in 12th grade, year 2006. After I graduated, I've had few open house, and did pretty good job selling. So far that I've been in this small-time business, I've never had any customer complaints. Foxxy's Haven is the name of my dream gift store.
here's how it's going to work. Each jewelry prices are marked on bottom right of each picture, the item number on bottom left. All jewelry are replacement-guarantee, if for any reason at all it breaks (and I should hope not, cuz half the jewelry posted here, I've personally worn/tested them while working at the factory) I will personally make a replica-replacement asap without charge, and free shipping, plus I will ask to please send the broken jewelry beads/material back to me.
There will be <span style="color:#8B0000">NO DIBS</span>! If you see an item you truly desire, but can't afford it at the time, I can make another one just like it, and hold for a week from the date you promise to pay. You may see an item with "Sold" on it, what that means is, the item itself pictured is sold, but I can and will make another similar to it. It will be priced differently though. Keep in mind, all stones have different values, and they do change over time, like gold. I only charge each jewelry based on how much i paid for the rocks/material used (genuine turquoise are the most expensive), and little extra as profit to myself for the work i put into it.
IF FOR ANY REASON AT ALL YOU ARE GOING TO SAY THESE ARE EXPENSIVE, please, take the time to look at this site: http://moonrisejewelry.com/ each jewelry, in my opinion, are overpriced. I think that's wrong, it's a rip off, and that's not fair. there's another business, where each jewelry are priced at $100 - $400. heck, a regular amethyst necklace was $250 OUCH!
you may either post here, or PM me if you'd like to make a purchase or have question (such as what is this rock, length of jewelry, etc). All jewelry will be shipped in a little ziploc bag, with stone's description on a piece of paper, packaged in padded envelope. I can do multiple orders shipped together if you'd like. please add $5.00 (USPS mail to US, outside US will be charged extra) to the total you are purchasing. EX: buying 2 necklace$28.00 + s/h$5.00 = $33.00. if you want insurance, add $1.50, or UPS instead of USPS, please give me your zip code so I may get a quote.
here are the jewelry:
Necklaces:
Bracelets:
Anklets:
Earrings:
there are whole lot more jewelry than are pictured here, and you can view them at:

also: buy any jewelry, and you get any one of these for free, if you would like one, just tell me the item number, and I'll ship it with your order.
bracelet:
anklet:
the next two jewelry, are demos only, not for sale. If you are interested in one, please tell me name/color of stone you'd like it to be, and allow about a week for me to make it before i ship it out. it takes a week because i actually put every single stone onto the wires and hook them up with jump rings, and it's harder/longer work than any jewelry above.
