I was able to add nine new pieces to the shop today. I had planned for more but CT was having a cranky day and needed more of my attention than usual. Some of the pieces are BRAND NEW, like the blue one pictured above, and some are just updated colors of existing pieces. Oh and theres also two new hairpin designs!! I’m really happy with all these new designs and I can’t wait to make more.

On a sorta related note… As you can see above, I’m trying out a new background for photos. I don’t know if I want to continue using wood as my background or not. It’s hard to do batch editing and such and a lot of times if gives everything a yellow glow. Plus I want a cleaner look to everything. I’m testing out options and would love your input…

Do you like the wood background? or the extremely (almost white) light gray one? or neither? Oh and keep in mind that the necklace on the left is black and the one on the right is dark gray, their not the same necklace.

I’m not a professional photographer with loads of equipment so this has been interesting figuring it all out, any suggestions would be great!

I think this is the most excited Ive been about a shop update since I first started casting plastic years ago!

I’ve been doing the same thing for so long, its been nice casting something new! I have been working on these designs for months. prototyping, picking out the right plastic, casting, tweaking the designs and assembling. I have been showing a lot of the process thru Twitter and Instagram if you want to see what all went into this…

This is the first part of the series. Basically the pieces that passed the prototyping and then tweaking process. I’m still working on way more!

This series is all original designs by me, Jessee, that have been 3D printed in glossy plastic. I make a mold of the printed pieces and cast them in plastic, and some of them then get filled with even more plastic! The process takes a lot longer than previous designs, but i’m much happier with the outcome. It’s all worth it to me!

In this update we have new earrings, new necklaces and one new brooch!

If you really love my new pieces, but don’t see the color you like let me know here! For the next 24 hours I will be taking requests for color combinations. I will begin casting them all tomorrow afternoon!

On another note, don’t forget the Adalou Blog is still hosting a giveaway and our Fab sale is still going on… both end Wednesday!!

I’ve been cleaning up my studio and getting ready for our next Fab.com Sale! (which starts next Wednesday btw). While cleaning I’ve been finding jewelry that I made but only ever took to craft fairs. I have been photographing them as I find them, and will slowly update them in the shop

Here’s the two newest pieces I’ve updated…

• Framed Swallow Necklace – ON SALE for $9.60 each. 

I’ve also started updating mystery packs of necklaces and hairpins, you get a huge assortment for a great price!

Keep an eye out for a bunch more random shop updates!

After two weeks of editing photos (I only worked an hour a night). I finally updated all the new necklaces!

There’s monster necklaces, geometric necklaces and patchwork inspired necklaces!!

Plus I made a few little houses that you can place on a shelf, in a cubicle or anywhere else you’d put something teeny. If you like them, please let me know I’d love to make other styles!
