Remember when series...

Listing all those beads made me nostalgic for a lot of things that I used to to. Digging through pictures from April 2006, I found my original hand burned and stained wood pendants. These were a huge seller for me...especially in the summer months! I still make these for custom orders, but think it is interesting that 3 years later, I'm still incorporating wood into my paperbag boutique series. Amazing how time flies!

Over the next few weeks, I'll be posting some of my all time favorite and memorable designs from the past 6 years!

1300 beads on ebay!

I'm kicking off my destash event on ebay with 1300 polymer clay beads! There are two lots on auction for the next 3 days! Stay tuned for more reillybelle destash lots!

reillybelle destash event

I have been hoarding supplies for the past 6 years. It is time to unload the amazing goodies that I have so that I can focus on other projects. Officially, I will open my destash store (yes, I have enough to stock an online store) on June 22, but I will be putting some things in before then. Make sure that you are signed up on my mailing list so that you can be the first to be in the know. I'll have specials throughout the summer with shipping and buy one get one deals! You're not going to want to miss this event!!

A work of heart...

A very special mom had me design a charm bracelet with school pictures of her two beautiful girls over the past 10 years. Each of the 10 charms are double sided, sandwiched between hand cut glass, and soldered on to a thick, sterling bracelet. The tiffany style heart pendant tops it off with hand stamped names. Due to the time it takes to make a bracelet like this, I will not stock this item, but will take special requests on occasion.

Congratulations Graduates!

Here are some graduation gifts I was commissioned to do this year. The top shows class rings that were hung on a leather necklace, so that the girls could wear them on their finger or around their neck. The bottom shows sterling pendants that have the school's map coordinates, which hang from a key chain for the boys. Congrats class of 2009! Please feel free to contact me for large special occasion orders!

What's your type?

Introducing the newest reillybelle line...what's your type? This half inch distressed fine silver pendant was crafted to be the same size as the top of an antique typewriter key. It hangs from a 16" sterling silver ball chain and can be customized with any number or letter. If you want to cluster several on a chain, I'd be happy to use a jump ring instead of a bail. The reillybelle what's your type necklace is the perfect all occasion accessory...and the perfect gift, of course! Available on 1000markets and etsy!

Check Mother's Day off the list...

All Mother's Day orders are officially out the door as of today! Thanks so much for choosing reillybelle to honor your mom on Mother's Day again! I'll be taking a bit of a break for the next week or so to recoup from what I lovingly referred to as "Mother's Day Madness" :o) I'll have some new items and a sale or two up my sleeve, so make sure that you are on the reillybelle mailing list to receive all the latest updates! Have a wonderful Mother's Day weekend!
