Varity Concert Jewels

This is why I`ve been gone so long. Didn`t think that stocking three stores would take so much work (DOI).

Here`s some of the newer items I`ve brought into my own store (Second Storey) recently.
Jewelry! Earrings and necklaces focus on eccentric bits and bobs like charms and vintage keys and feathers. There`s lots of ripping apart and repurposing and reimagining!

WONDERING WHERE I'VE BEEN?

I've been busy, the opposite of dead.

A little opportunity has crept up on me and I'M OPENING A STORE! Well, TOMORROW, I`m opening a store.

Pictures to come soon.

Anyways, here's some mail I've been meaning to get around to posting for y'all!



For Dear Stephy, my partner in crime on the west coast.






Something a lil risque for another Steph, this one in Florida. Steph sent me a freakin BEAUTY of a postcard a while back with drips and other creepy things. One of my recent faves, fer sure.




For Angie Cope in Port Washington!






For sweetheart Bianca in Australia. Gurl makes the coolest shit and has a great style!




Long overdue mail for Mary England in Maryland. This girl has sent me some great stuff and this postcard hopefully relays the sentiment that I appreciate her mail, and soon she will get something to make up for my tardiness.






For DK in Illinois!




For April Kam, all the way in Hong Kong!






For my Canadian Favourite, Dewi in Toronto:




For MADGE (Deserves to be capitalized) in Spokane:



More and more and more things coming soon!

Mail For Kiera

All the way in lovely Oakland, California.

And genuinely, I really think Oakland is lovely. I've been once and I visited the best store I have ever been to. A store filled with second hand art supplies. A big warehouse filled with everything you could need.

Here's a taste of what I sent this fellow weird paper collector:

Hi, New Mail Friend!

I've just begun trading with Hugh, a new mail bud I e-met on Flickr. Hugh's into collages and sticker art and collaborative books, so basically we're a match made in postal heaven.

Keeping those interests in mind, here's some photos of some of the items I sent him in my introductory mailing!

Collaged stickers for collaboration and sticking
