My personal FB page has been a bit off w the newest updates, same here RN.
I'm not able to send pics directly in our DMs RN, so I'm posting here & sharing the link in DMs.
New Hazelwood items will be added to fill in missing spaces on the rack in the next few weeks.
If it's time to replace your old one, or you want to test it against your teens wild BO, please let me know asap.
I have many gemstone colours available, & I'm going to dig deep into my lamp worked glass beads for a few special ones. Lamp worked glass is like painting w hot glass, none of those beads are plastic or are painted. The colours will not change, wear or chip off. There are some shells & coral too, these are more delicate like amber.
Most of the HW selection is paired w Baltic amber. There are lots of BA colours, patterns & sizes available w HW too.

Please take a moment to measure your infant or toddler's size for a necklace.
To discourage buying the wrong size, I keep everything Newborn to school age the same price π
The best fitting necklace is the longest length that's not able to come over the chin, and gives about a year of wearing before it will be too small & by then, it's time to replace anyway.
Please don't buy a necklace that is too long, it's not worth the increased choking hazard risk.
Supervision is required at all times.
If necklaces aren't your thing, a couple of anklets will get approx the same amount of amber.
Each style, colour & size of infant necklaces are $30 ea π

Canada Post is slow RN!
I'm getting lots of feed back on Canada Post being really slow.
Does anyone ship w another company I should try out?? Suggestions welcome BC what should take 3-5 days has been weeks!
Local shoppers, want a couple of drop in dates?
You can see more selection & don't need to set up an appointment.
First will be this Sat, June 27 from 9-1, cash only.
I can set you up for prepaid pick ups also.

I do have a very short custom list going & I'll be making a few other items in that time too.
If you want something, please let me know! Besides others already being made, I have always said "first paid is first made" so please don't forget to pay invoice.
I'd like to get an idea of how much HW I'll need.

Life's too short to let jerks get you down βοΈ
I'm paying an extra thank you forward to the kindest customers. Sometimes the sour grapes suck up all the energy... Or at least they can try π€·ββοΈ
If you have something extra in your package, it's no mistake. I appreciate you π
Thank you for coming back again & again.
Thank you for referring your friends.
Thank you for keeping me going even after all the good markets & wholesale locations have disappeared.
Please PM for a personal invite for in person shopping if you're local.
If you aren't in the Strathroy or Sarnia area, still PM, I'm happy to send love too.
Thank you for putting these tags to good use again & again ππ
While I take a break from beads for a bit, I've crocheted a pile of blankets that will be for sale soon.
I had to step away from the inbox for my own happiness w zero regrets. All of you repeat customers who aren't dropping off hate can place orders anytime.
Until we have more consistent warm weather, I'm focusing on my family, canning & our overall wellness.
Raspberry plants will be available in the next week, in bundles of 4 & 9.
FYI post
I might be alone for a few days BC FB messages be crazy & trying to steal my sunshine.
So many scammers, I am not offering beading classes or teaching ceramics, so many who'll send inappropriate messages to my biz page BC they're blocked elsewhere (FYI, even if I've blocked you- from biz page... I see you π)
Beading is my happy place, & no room for rude vibes to the page or at my door πππ
I'll meet by appointment, or it's mailbox pick up or shipped to you. I don't get notifications on all comments, and even PMs aren't always given immediate notifications. Even if I'm working w Beads, I'm not necessarily on FB at that time. Please do not get rude if I don't or can't reply right away. I am a happy maker, not a retail store, handcrafted jewelry takes time. "Catching" me at home is not the same as booking an appointment.
That being said, there are lots of choices available & RTS.
There are zero drop in hours or shows planned in the near future. I stopped doing shows in 2017, recently gave a few a try, but likely won't continue. Shows aren't what they used to be π
Once it warms up, I'll work on the porch for a couple of days. If you want those dates & times, PM me & I'll show you what is available.
I will be selling large numbers of raspberry plants also.
I hope you can enjoy the sun & the rain π
