Pretty Little Things

I’ve been tinkering with my jewelry creations again and have some new pieces to share with you. I also have a big favor to ask! Check out these shots and then give me your advice….

I made this necklace using silver findings and three pretty turqouise-range glass beads. One is a square frosted glass bead, one is a shiny teal cylinder, and one is a perfectly clear pale blue teardrop shape. They’re joined together and hung on a sterling silver petite ball chain.

This little guy is far more whimsical – he’s an antiqued brass birdie carrying a red glass heart for someone special, and he’s hanging from an antiqued brass double loop rolo chain. Cute, no?

So, now, onto the favor!

I’m opening a new Etsy shop… for reals this time! (The last attempt was thwarted by my personal Christmas craft crunch.) I was going to name the shop after this blog, but after thinking about it I’m not so sure that’s a good idea. Jewelry, while delightful, has nothing to do with cooking or being hungry or anything associated with the title The Hungry Cook.

What do you think? What should I name my new Etsy shop? I’m thinking something that reflects the fact that the items will be pretty but not too serious or fancypants…that leaves room to expand a bit into non-jewelry items (say, other types of accessories)…that is somewhat memorable or easy to spell….that hasn’t already been taken…that hopefully reflects my personality and/or aesthetic a bit. Kind of a tall order! Suggestions??

    Hmm, that is a tall order. The only thing that comes immediately to mind, simply by scanning this post, is ‘Brass Birdie’. I think it conveys something – it’s memorable, alliterative, vintage-esque. I love that piece too, by the way. You’ve got a great eye!

    Hi Ana, I’m kind of new to your site. But I love the jewelry and actually think a great name for your ETSY site would be the title of your post: “Pretty Little Things”

      Thank you so much, Kris! I actually tried “Pretty Little Things”, but someone else got to it first. I’ll keep brainstorming. :) Thanks for visiting!
