Something Simple: Hair Band to a Hair Pin

Hair band to hair pin 5 OOAK

This is one of those super simple projects I’m ashamed I never thought of until last night.  A few years ago I found this hair band on clearance.  I knew I would probably never wear it, but I loved the flower so I bought it anyway.  I have only worn it once until today (now it’s twice!).  It occurred to me last night I could turn it in to a pin, so I did just that today.

SALE!

One of a Kindness

Since I built a light box the new items I am adding have better pictures than my previous listings. I’m also punching up my listings. I don’t want to go back & update the old listings, so I marked them all 50% for 24hrs. Until Fri @ 10pm CST all my current listings are half off. Plus, if you use the coupon code IMLAZY you can get free shipping, US only.

I photographed the process of making a collapsible light box entirely from items on hand, so it was free.  I’ll be posting that tomorrow.

I also made some turnip green gnocchi for lunch, which was a delicious experiment, & will be posting about that soon.

Plus, the new earrings I’m in the middle of listing right now.  And another Pinterest inspired project or two.  Oh, & a DIY version of a cool product I saw in a magazine.  I have more ideas than energy/time!

Treasury Madness!

Alabama, cartoons, crafts, crochet, earrings, Etsy, geekery, girl, hair doodad, hairpin, handmade, home decor, jewelry, links, necklace, patterns, summer, superheroes, superheroines, treasury

I finally made my first treasury.

And my second.

And my third.

I’m learning as I go, & I seem to find things in one treasury that won’t work for that theme, but inspire another.

Here are the three I have made so far.  I spent much longer on tonight’s than the other two, but I was specifically looking for items that had not been featured yet & especially from smaller sellers.

The first: Alabama Summertime
Summer theme featuring Alabama sellers
The theme was built around some of my earrings before I realized you’re not supposed to include your own items.  Oops.  I decided to go ahead & use them because I had built the treasury around them, & I find myself become less flexible as I get older, but I did put them last.  After it was published, I noticed I also used the same seller twice.  She is one of my teammates, so I picked her shop that way.  I didn’t realize it was the same shop when another of her items came up in a general search for summer themed items from Alabama sellers.  Since my noob was showing in this one, I had to make another one fast to redeem myself.

Never Too Old For Cartoons
Some of my favorite cartoons, because being a grown up is overrated.
This one was inspired by another teammate who makes Pokemon jewelry.

Unsung She-roes
Bad ass women who haven’t been featured before.
This treasury was sparked by the She-ra & Teela magnets I used in the cartoon treasury.

I should go back to work now…  I have several pairs of earrings that need to be listed, & more stuff to be made.  I’m like a raccoon with a shiny object, easily distracted & frequently trapped.

I spent the weekend working on my packaging, so got behind on my promise to list something new every day for the cross-promotion, but today I have made up for it!

Cowrie Shell AccessoriesGroup shot!

Cowrie Shell HairpinsCowrie Shell Hairpins, $2 a pair

Cowrie Shell EarringsCowrie Shell Earrings, $3 a pair (a 3rd style is not in this pic)

Bamboo Crochet Thread Necklace with Wooden Beads & a Cowrie Shell PendantBamboo Crochet Necklace with Cowrie Shell Pendant, $5

And another thing I set up over the weekend, My Etsy Shop on my facebook page.  It’s a new app I found to replace the old Etsy shop page they broke when they added timeline.  BOO!  What is really neat about MES though, is the ability to add a discount.

If you find something you like on My Etsy Shop, click it, & you will be given a coupon code for a 10% discount & free shipping in exchange for letting it post the item to your fb page.  Not a bad swap, I’d say:)

Pink & silver paper flower hairpin

Pink and Silver Orange and Gold Paper Flower by OOAKindness.

I have a dozen of these paper flower hairpins available for just $1 each, five of the pink/silven & sever of the orange/gold.  Each one is unique & no more will be made.

They are protected by two coats of a water based sealer.  Each one is securely glued to a 2″ bobby pin with a felt back to make it extra secure.

You can also find this at my new shop on Goodsmiths.
