cameo pendants

 currently setting these. going to put them up on my new site nicoletirona.bigcartel.com actually have to edit my links as i kind of like how easy it is to keep it all together there, its 10 dollars per month and i have not sold anything .... etsy never paid me they kept saying my bank account is wrong despite sending them a bank statement and all that. probably the bank doesnt like them. anyway i never got paid for any of the etsy sales i made of recent. they just keep saying theres something wrong with my account and to keep re-entering it. uh-huh right. no thanks. im not that stupid. so they kept all the money and i had to ship out of pocket and give the stuff away. i took down all my listings that were made stuff. i dont know why i even kept listings up. so stupid evil and threatening me and telling me theyre holding 30% of my money because they dont trust me? oh fuck off... honestly they didnt fucking pay me for like 6 orders. no one paid paypal. everyone chose etsy payments which kept all the money. 

anyway my site is nicoletirona.bigcartel.com im going to put these up once theyre set and i have some better pics of them. i feel like i should adjust the prices on some of the pieces. just because i dont want anyone to buy it shouldnt make it as much as stuff that actually cost money. lol. the whistle necklace i refuse to give up for less than 35 dollars. lol. and the spanish buttons from simon i sold one to an old lady at the church market who told me she is a leo... it was the best one with excellent proportion. i cant remember how much she got it for off me, dont remind me ,she probably gave me 5 dollars, so the one on the site is $24 but i think its too much. i dont know why. i think its because i dont even have money to buy dish soap just like everyone else. 

anyway got all the zodiac cameos finally set. i want one! they look classy and hype.

i settled on this cameo for the bird.. but i have a few of the birds and only two of these cameos

here are two of the zodiac black glass cameos, virgo and scorpio

this pretty tortoise glass cameo in a setting with leaves

the miniature cameos get set 

the extra large cameos these are vintage and so pretty and airy-wispy must be the ladies outfits

this green cameo set in this teardrop shape setting

this nice rhodium plated setting for the pale blue cameo

bag of individually packaged gold plated settings (i think theyre considered vintage already not sure)

will set some tonight and have some listed up by the weekend.

Kirks Folly Jewelry from Rhode Island

I only recently found out about Kirks Folly line of jewelry

Opened in 1979, it was literally the last jewelry manufacturer based in Providence Rhode Island and it closed Nov 1, 2014.

It looks like it was high end at one point but I think it was sold on TV in america before the ladies retired. Great thread on its closing, many sad fans and bits of info: http://community.qvc.com/t5/Jewelry/Kirks-Folly-closing-their-doors-It-s-over/td-p/1298245

Looking through some of the charm pieces, I have some of the exact charms I bought off Rhode Island sellers. Finally learned who one of the big name brand manufacturer the re-sellers allude to!

Its good stuff. The vintage pieces are amazing of course.

This is the kind of stuff I want to make. Or at least able to make. The pieces are so beautiful!!!
