!!!////!!!! new shop !!!////!!!!


we're changing things up around here. as you can see we've got a new colorful logo switch-up which feels ohhh so much better and we've moved! after a whole lot of thought we've decided to transfer our shop to big cartel- hope you all like the new shop format as much as we do.

Check us out here now- and if you have any bookmarks or links to our old esty page make the leap with us: www.dulldiamond.bigcartel.com

while our format has changed a bit, you can still expect the same goods from us: one-of-a-kind or super small limited editions of 2 or 3- never more. we're keeping the act of making as open and creative as possible all the time so each time you visit you'll find something new. keeping it bright, fun, and unexpected- for us- and for you:

dD field trip


we marked the first official day of summer with a spontaneous trip to the garden store with 2 (of our 3) sweet boys. iced coffees in hand, we almost bought up every succulent plant in the joint.

happy summer people.

Working Magic

 

some days the bead arranging comes so naturally and others it's very trial and error.

1-2-3-4......ta da!

lets talk shop- it's been awhile. made this bracelet and documented the steps.

spreading out the beads i feel compelled to use. wanting something simple yet interesting:

hmmm that long black piece is making it all too dark and something seems off with the balance: 

 add a little there, subtract a little here and almost done:


the end.

ps: we're always adding and subtracting, rearranging and cleaning up the shop.  
check in often as we don't always announce it here!
