This half the ‘chix finally got the good weather thing going. Shorts and flip flop days ahead.
So the ebay auctions have some cheerful bright flowers up this week - this set from Carolyn and I is one of them:
There’s also this bright set of six petal flowers:
Our Ebay this week has some flowers. Very surprising I’m sure! Carolyn has a listing of her wildflowers mixed with a few bright summer colors:
And I have a listing of the coffee toned flowers with a winged visitor, my new cabbage white butterfly cane:
The USPS raised it’s rates this Monday, May 14. For domestic shipping, the price changes on our ebay / etsy items is small: $.25
The price change for shipping to International locations changed rather more and we’re still working on some solutions so that we don’t have to inflict the 400%+ increase on our customers. If you buy something from The Claychicks and you need it shipped out of the US, contact us so we can figure something out please!
What have these got to do with each other? Not much. Except that somewhere in our artist brains, we ended up with clay canes of all of these. And that’s what we’ve got on Ebay this week.
Carolyn named the cat in this set Fred. And now it’s stuck in my head. Anyways, Fred likes to chase bugs as my cats did so the set has some flowers and ferns for Fred to chase a bee through.
My other Ebay set is a sampler of pastel roses. Just like having a box of crayons.
And for some good ol’ eye candy we have the last pack - for this season at least - of Carolyn’s pansies:
Kept properly, polymer clay lasts for years. Canes are no exception - if you keep them out of dust, heat and wrapped or separated from each other, you should be able to use them for years.
So what works for storage? (more…)
In Claychicks Canadian branch, we’ve had a comedy of errors and frustrations the last few weeks. Not all bad but the distinct feeling that Murphy does indeed love us and pay attention. Sometimes I wish I had another patron saint.
That said, half of my stuff got to Caro’s place the other day so is now trickling it’s way onto Ebay and Etsy. There’s this sweet set of roses, a sharp set of canes in blue or the striking black and white set here:
