Last year I had the good fortune to stay with Amy Crook of Antemortem Arts<\/a> and Not Dead Yet Studios<\/a> while I was attending the CCE West<\/a> conference. We quickly discovered that our senses of humor, aesthetic, and geekiness meshed well, and set to scheming on a collaborative effort. The first fruits of that collaboration are here, and you can now preorder either (or both!) of our horror-tinged necklaces for March delivery:<\/p>\n

The Spider’s Delight<\/a> necklace comes in black acrylic that’s shiny on one side and matte on the other, giving you a few options on how to wear it. The Cthulu<\/a> necklace is in hand-stained leather, and is also my first foray into oxidizing silver (which looks fantastic!) Both necklaces are being offered with one of Amy’s gorgeous greeting cards as a bonus if you preorder, too!<\/p>\n

In an only-slightly-more-traditional nod to Valentine’s day, I’ve also just listed a few new necklaces with heart motifs. The Double Heart<\/a> necklace is making its return after being retired from my line in 2010, now in gorgeous hand-stained leather and with a more cerebral cousin, I Love (Your) Brains<\/a>. They are joined by the completely new Love Ninja design in both necklace<\/a> and earrings<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Oh, and just so you know – if you order one of the new leather designs or anything else in my shop along with one of the preorders, the in-stock item will ship right away, but you’ll still pay only an extra $1 shipping for the preorder. So you can get something in time for a Valentine’s Day gift and follow it up with a spooky surprise for later!<\/p>\n
