Happy Holidays!

Happy (insert holiday of your choice)!!! Now that we have that done, let me show you what's going on.

First, we have new charms for Christmas, including a limited edition train - it is so cute! The Christmas charms come in a collection package, or you can purchase them individually.


There are also some charms made especially for the Jewelry & Accessory Expo...


Speaking of the Expo, Thursday, December 12th at 7 pm SLT, I'll be running a demo / help / Q&A session about Cherish Charms. If you've wondered what the fuss is about, or if you've purchased some of the set and could use a little help, come on over! I plan on offering a few of these a month so don't be shy!

Here are the exclusive items for the Expo - catch them before they disappear!


Then there is the moolto hunt - more exclusives!


Enough for now - enjoy and happy shopping!

New stuff and looking ahead

For the Frozen hunt, until month end, this lovely set is available. I was rather pleased with how it came out - so much so that I made sets in pink and blue for store release. I can't decide which color is my favorite since I like them all! If you'd like pics of someone wearing these, check out Hans Inshan's blog and flicker.


For Cherish Charms, I've added a Fall Collection, gathering some new and some previously released charms. A good deal for some very nice charms, inspired by my childhood memories of raking leaves, picking apples and all the other fall things.


Cherish Charms has already had one limited edition charm go into charm history - another limited edition is ending on 11/24 and a new one starts.....

The Captured Crystal charm is an introduction charm for Cherish Charms. I looked at is as my dreams and ideas for the product line had been captured and conquered!


AVAILABLE NOVEMBER 24.....This sweet, holiday charm reminds me of those colorful toy trains that babies and toddlers push around on the floor. Choo choo!!! This charm is available through December 31st so don't forget to stop by after 11/24 and get yours!


Upcoming......

- I am SO excited to be part of this - stay tuned for posts. I have 2 exclusives for it and loads of other stuff including special Cherish Charms commemorating the theme of Stage Magic.....Voila! 

 

- moolto sisters hunt - I crossed my fingers and asked and voila!! I'm in the hunt! Which also means a magazine ad - and OMG, Jena Adder has created a fantastic ad for the magazine.....I'll post that later....it's so good it deserves it's own post. As I told Jena, I am in AWE of her talent!

-CHRISTKINDLMARKT in Mieville - I just love the Mieville sims and I try to participate in their events as much as I can. And for Christmas, Perryn and Mike have done a fantastic job on the market area! I feel Christmasy all over whenever I go there! It officially opens December 1st.....

I think that's enough for now.....I guess I make up for not blogging often with long, informative ones.....sorry!

See you soon!

Introducing.....Cherish Charms by Always Eclectic!

More than two years in the making, Cherish Charms has come to life! Tradable, collectable charms along with corresponding jewelry. Move the charms from once piece of Cherish Charms jewelry and another. Trade with friends. Collect those rare, exclusive pieces offered only for a limited time. It's a whole new concept in SL jewelry!

I'm including some info on the concept. There's additional information at the Cherish Charms website:  http://alwayseclectic.wix.com/cherishcharms/#!home/mainPage

Here's a quick overview of how things work:

 
 
 
I've got several items at the Bitacora Travel Faire, in Africa, (http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Bloodshroud%20Bayou/225/218/22) that are part of Cherish Charms. There is an exclusive set including an exclusive charm for BTF only.
 
 
 A separate, exclusive charm is also available only through BTF. It matches the Savanah set created for BTF.
 
 
There are lots of travel related charms at BTF. Those and more are available at the main store. And this is just the beginning!

Bitacora Travel Faire, here we come!

I went over to Africa today, Bitacora Travel Faire style. I found my booth or tent or stand or whatever you want to call it.


What do you suppose I'll put there? Okay, yes, jewelry. But what jewelry?

Perhaps it will be that really cool thing I've been working on for, oh, two years or so?

I can't imagine a huge faire with big names and lots of publicity being a good place for a new product line........

We shall see soon......

Exclusive group gift and hunt gift! Come and get 'em!

Well, what can I say. I am so unbelievably busy with things for Always Eclectic! New, exclusive items for the groupees and the Top Designers in SL Halloween Hunt. So here we go..

First, the groupee gift....


Black metal surrounds the rubies and garnets. And, if you stop and look at the necklace or an individual earring, you might see something kind of halloweenish....hehe.

Don't forget, the group gift is available in-world for those on the in-world group as well as those on the subscriber group - ain't modern technology wonderful!

Now, for the TDOSL Halloween Hunt...


This color scheme make my subtle Halloweening a bit more obvious.

More stuff in the works of course. The Rock your Rack event was a smashing success which made it even more fun.

This month, Always Eclectic is on the African continent of the Bitacora Travel Faire (blog: http://bitacoratravelfair.wix.com/btf2013). Somehow I stumbled into an event with the big boys and girls. Yikes! This will be October 17-31 so I am working hard to bring some special items to that faire.

Stay tuned! And see you soon!

Fabulous NEW Items for the Renaissance Hunt/Fair

I've put out some new items and some EXCLUSIVE items for the Renaissance Faire/Hunt.

The first set I call Elegance. It's delicate, feminine (sorry guys!) and lovely! It is a reproduction of a Renaissance piece I saw.  These first two are ONLY available at the Always Eclectic tent at the Renaissance Faire. They will be available through the end of September and then POOF! They will disappear forever!














There are two additional versions of Elegance that are available at both the Faire and the Main Store.














On to another Renaissance era release......Distinction! Ladies and Gentlemen will look regal and rich in these sets. The silver set is the prize in the Renaissance Hunt! The gold set is on sale at the Faire and at the Main Store.

Happy Fourth of July and Stuff!

First thing, two items for the Fourth of July and for only $4L! Party on!



Is it me or do the earrings look like eyes positioned that way? Hmmmm......

Anyway, a new release also.....


For Ladies and Gents, set in Silver and Gold, and lots of colors!
Also, if you find something in the store that you'd like that's in a set, let me know. I'm perfectly willing to do singles or fatpacks. I'm just not sure what people would like. So speak up!

A little taste of Italy - one of my favorite places!

I have to say I love Italy! It's one of the few European countries I've returned to, and I think I've been there at least 3 times now. There's just something about it that FEELS different from other places. My favorite city to visit is Venice, but that remembrance is just too long for this blog......

Anyway, one of the things I saw in Italy is items made with glass created in a millefiori style. You may or may not be interested, but here's a link to a short You Tube video on how they make these lovely patterns. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw_yUsTVS0

Of course, mileage may vary on the SL version! Here's my take on some jewelry make with glass in a millefiori pattern. I won't include every pic here. There are 8 different varieties, 5 with gold and 3 with silver. Enjoy!

 
 

Hope to see you at the store! Ciao!

Hoppy Easter and a Splendid Spring!

Even though it isn't spring everywhere, it is in SL! So I have some lovely Easter sets for the ladies to parade about in on Easter morning or whenever they want. AND.......drumroll please......both of these sets are available for Petite Avatars as well! So it can be Easter everywhere!


 
 
Now, I was trying to think of what I could do for the guys for Easter, when my hubby said that guys do NOT wear jewelry with Easter eggs on it. Well, phooey! What fun is that!?!?
 
So I got creative and came up with these bracelets for springtime - no Easter eggs in sight! And I thought the names appropriate given my information.....
 


Very nice, and actually would work well for men and women, but they can't be considered sissy by anyone! * attempts a manly grunt and ends up falling over in laughter! *

Anyway, 10 days more for Steam Hunt so come and get your hunt giftees!


See you soon!

Happy Almost St. Paddy's Day! And Etc ...

First, let me fix a case of the lazies - I released a new color of the Twisted Rope series of chains, this time in black! Just think how many ensembles could use that little bit of black to make them POP!
 

 
For St. Patrick's Day, or any other day really, let me introduce you to Wonderful Emeralds. It comes in four different flavors, all emphasizing those emerald gems.
 



 
Also a new group giftee awaits.....
 
See you soon!
