Beaded Necklaces *UPDATED*

Here are updated examples of my beaded jewelry. As always, I'd be happy to do a custom piece or help you complete an outfit...just let me know what colors you're looking for and what style you like!

"Rose"

"Faith"

"Elena"

"Brooke"

"Abigail"

"Colette"

"Eve"

"Fiona"

"Sierra"

All of the necklaces range in length from 13" to 16" including the pendant. Since I have to be able to purchase my beads ahead of time (I don't have as big of a stockpile of supplies for my beaded jewelry as I do for my dominoes), I will ask to receive payment before I begin your piece. Thanks for your understanding!

Prices are as follows -

Necklace: $25
Earrings: $15
Bracelet: $15
Necklace and Earrings: $35
Necklace, Earrings, and Bracelet: $50

I AM in the process of finishing up some new dominoes, and I'm looking into getting some mini dominoes for children's necklaces (Thanks, Ang!)....so be sure and check back!

Alphabitties

I am in LOVE with Alphabitties (I would insert copyright/trademark/whatever sign here, but I don't know how). They are these precious teeny little letter stickers that make my life, not to mention my current obsession with phrases/quote blurbs, SO much easier to manage. Here's what I mean:

I'm only getting started......and, as always, welcoming new ideas!

Not dots, but....

I have to give a shout out to my blogfriend Krystyn and her give-away. I like shoes as much as the next girl, but I am in love with little kids' shoes. So check out See Kai Run and enter to win on Krystyn's blog!

...a winner!!

Congratulations to JO DEE, the winner of the very first Dressed-Up Dots give-away! Jo Dee, email me and we'll get coordinated! Yay! (And a special thank you to my altogether lovely assistant, Maegan, modeling the very latest in the Curious George jammies line. She was a little preoccupied with Lilo and Stitch in these pics...forgive us.)

I want to thank everyone who posted comments, linked me on their blogs/facebook pages/websites, and just got the word out in general. This has become a crazy passion of mine, and it has done my heart so much good to see yall come along side me and support me. You are all lovely (even you, Josh!), and I thank the Lord for the support He has given me in yall! I hope this is as much fun for yall as it is for me!

Be looking for more info, give-aways, etc. Easter is coming up and I have some ideas.....also, please pray for me as I make a decision about the Etsy store. I know it would make life a lot easier for all involved, but it's a SILLY big step for me, and I'm nervous for some reason. Thanks, friends.

Somethin' for nothin'!

Upon the advice of a wonderful friend (thanks, Tara!!) I have decided to get the word out a little more about my work and hold a ST. PADDY'S GIVE-AWAY!!! Because we all love those......ok, really the only people I can speak for in that area are myself.....and maybe Maegan....and all she loves right now is coloring, Veggie Tales, and her new stuffed turtle from the NC aquarium. We'll see.

The give-away will last for just over one week, so ACT FAST! On Wednesday, March 4th I will close the contest, take down the names of all my lovelies that have commented, put them in a beautiful hand-woven basket (or ziplock bag - there is, in fact, a limit to my creativity.....who am I kidding?), and pull one out at RANDOM. Because we all know Martha loves her some randomness.  The winner will receive this:

Because I care....and I don't want you to get pinched on March 17th!

There are (as always) a few rules:

1. Please, please, please link my blog to your blog or Facebook page or MySpace page or any combination of the three........the grapevine is GREAT that way!!!! I am eternally grateful!

2. Post a comment here. Let me know your name and email address and any feedback/ideas you have......I make what I like and what I THINK yall like, but I never really know until yall tell me. And, not gonna lie, it's nice to know people actually look at my stuff.

I will contact the winner Thursday, March 5th (did I mention I love randomness?) by email - or phone, if I am lucky enough to have your number! 

Recap: link my blog.......post a comment.....easy! Have fun! If the response is good, I may just have a repeat performance.....can you say EASTER!?!?!?

In closing, and as a shoutout to all my sweet Phi Lamb sistas out there.....Get excited! And good luck!
