Lotta Hardware, Very Little Hippo

Did this little shoot several months back. I like it. We went to the famous Hippo Hardware & of course it was awesome. There's brass & dust & lights & junk so I felt right at home. 

 

 

Oh and as promised...something NEW:

All baubles available HERE! Enjoy peeps.

Bite The Bullet.

Bullets with chains, bullets with crystal, bullets with pearls, BULLETS BULLETS BULLETS. I love to add these little guys to a craft table! They start conversation (one lady told me bullet shells always remind her of her childhood because she used to use them to catch ants which she would then bury, consequently killing the ants...wtf.), ANYWAYS, they always seems to make people smile so I've tried to keep them fresh & interesting for all you bauble-loving folks out there. I've got quite the collection to be sold exclusively at some upcoming holiday shows! You can always request a bullet bauble from the Agnes Etsy as well, I may even list them eventually. WHAT. Yeah. Proactive.

Enjoy!

All of these baubles (including the matching earrings!) are all under $30 which makes them a steal for holiday gifts!

The Evolution Of The Bullet Necklace

For those of you that are familiar with my modus operandi (suck it honors english class), you know that I am a terrible procrastinator & more notably suffer from like the worst ADD ever. I looooooathe doing things more than once. Which is why making one-of-a-kind baubles are right up my sparkly alley. However, I realize that while always fun, it's not always practical to never offer people something simple that can be recreated. Right before the Spring Crafty Wonderland sale I did a little brainstorm sesh with my favorite Baer of Lettuce Press & we decided to vamp up my bullet necklaces. Shown below.

See? Amazing. I know what you're thinking...these are perfect, Agnes you're a genius. I know I know...thank you. BUT I kinda wanted to do something a little different so we decided to do some multiple chain drips from the bullet. The result? A FREAKING BULLET JELLYFISH MAN. Yeah. Sometimes I'm so clever I don't even understand what I'm doing anymore.

And earrings!!!

Soooo I previewed these little bad boys at the Crafty show and low & behold...HUGE HIT. Sold out. So now I gotta make more. Which I will be doing & listing. If you just HAVE to have one of these little industrial sea-folk, there are a few at The Little Things boutique which I will be blogging about next. Swoop em up people!!! Given my hatred for repetition I can't guarantee I'll be making a bazillion more of these. Just sayin...
