Grumpy Girl

Feeling grumpy? Do you stink? Lips chapped? House has a funny smell? Need a laugh or bath? Need a massage? You've come to the right place because I can hook you up! Oh, except for the massage part.

If you have not seen Grumpy Girl's Etsy shop, then let me just say that you are missing out! Sharon, little miss Grumpy Girl, has a wonderful since of humor to go along with her FABulous bath, body and candle creations. The overall shop atmosphere is bright, cheerful and colorful with impeccable photos. Okay, and a little on the grumpy side - you MUST read the descriptions to understand, plus they'll give you a great laugh!

In her You Stink So Good section, you can find the above: The Anti Bitch Bar. Read about it to understand the title - hilarious!

Check out the Bitchin Aroma's section and you'll fine several yummy candles like Apple Cinnamon Fruit Cobbler Candle and even a Mason Jar Candle that you can pick your own scent!


Now if you are a chapstick/lip balm fanatic like me (I seriously have one in every room of the house, my purse, car - you name it!) then quickly run to her Lip Crack section! The Choco-Mint Orgasm Lip Balm was one of my first purchases and I am totally hooked! Nice and creamy, not hard and yucky, and the taste... WOW!
Where would we be without soap? Especially handMADE soap! Being a die-hard hippie/flower child, this Acid Trip soap was made for me. Yep. She makes it JUST for me. Okay, not really, but it seems like it. This was my other purchase and wow, this is one big bar of cold processed soap. Love it!

I just ordered some more goodies from little miss Grumpy Girl and can hardly wait to get rid of the stink around here.

Have a very grumpy day ;0

Patina, Patata, Pinata

So I owe another big thank you to one of my customers. She wanted dark oxidized earwires and asked if I could do that for her. Of course I said yes as I will do anything that I am able to in order to please my customers. I don't just say "I'm happy when my customers are happy" for nothing, I sincerely mean it.

Above are my Medium Hoops in a dark patina, rather like a gunmetal to black. I was quite surprised how cool they turned out. Even Mark commented how great they looked.

These are my Signature Elfin earwires in a random brushed type patina, kind of like an antique look. Again, big approval from Mark who originally thought that oxidizing them wouldn't look very good. Okay, I have to be honest, I kind of thought the same thing, but wow - these are so pretty!

Above are my Baby Elfins in the same finish as the hoops. I just can't get over how awesome they turned out.

I've oxidized before and having been wanting to add some oxidized supplies to my shop, but guess I was waiting for someone to nudge me along. It's actually kind of fun to do, well except the horrific smell of the Liver of Sulfur (LOS). If you don't know what LOS smells like here's a little hint: have you ever smelled rotten eggs? I mean LOTS of rotten eggs? Well, put them all in a zip lock bag, stick your nose in the bag and take a little whiff. There you go. Now you know.

My customer's order has been shipped out and I listed my new additions the other day. Last night I sold 2 of them! Much to my surprise they were sold to one of my sweet friends who I will not name unless she wants to let everyone know (just in case what she is making is a surprise).

I'm off to start my day. Lots of earwires to make and the smell of LOS is calling my name.

Patina, Patata.... anyway you say it, Patina ROCKS!

Smell you all later,

Rocki
