Handmade craft items.
My name is Tiffany and since 2005 I have been teaching myself to make different types of crafts. I started off making soap and bath salts, then candles, started teaching myself how to bead jewelry, and now I am working with clay. I went to college for fine arts and graduated with my associates degree in 2002. I also love to paint but as of right now I have nothing for sale. I put a lot of time and effort in everything I do and also try to make everything as reasonably priced as possible.
The soap I create is made out of all natural ingredients, such as, fruit, vegetables, herbs, etc. I boil a block of soap, adding the ingredients and letting them simmer for 5 to 10 minutes to make sure all the nutrients are boiled into the soap. I also add vitamin E oil to every bar making sure your skin feels smooth and soft. Then I pour them in a mold and wait for them to cool. Some of the soaps I have made include, Lemon, peppermint tea, cinnamon, carrot ( a favorite of my customers) , watermelon, sand, cornmeal, coffee, and many more. They all do different things for you skin, such as, tightening, soothing, rejuvenating, absorbing odors, and scrubbing your skin. My soap is $3.75 or 2 for $6.50 unless marked. The bath salts are individually priced and also made by hand. I have a milk bath made with REAL milk (powdered or course) sea salts, and a few other ingredients. I also add vitamin E oil to that mix for a little extra softness!! I can make a batch for you with any scent or color you choose but don't make the color too dark or you may stay that color afterwards!! Lol. The bath salts will turn the water whatever color is added but you don't have to worry about your skin getting dyed. At least mine never has.
The tarts I make are candles used in the tart warmers (I have some of the tart warmers for sale too). You put the tart in the top, a tea light candle in the bottom that you will light to melt the candle on the top and release the scent. It's nice if you have children or pets around that a open flame may not be safe. They also have tart warmers that heat with a light bulb which makes them much safer than candles. I have over 30 different scents already made including strawberry, midnight moon, love spell, blueberry, banana, bedtime bath (my favorite), patchouli, etc. If you like a certain scent, just ask!! I probably have it and can make some for you at no extra cost. The tarts are .75 or 2 for a dollar. I will get a list together of all the scents I have in stock asap.
As for the jewelry, I use many different types of beads and techniques to make my beautiful pieces. Pearls, glass, wood, Swarovski crystals, and gemstone such as Hematite, Moon stone, Amethyst, Tigers eye, Cats eye, etc. I make custom pieces for anyone that wants one at no extra cost. Most people pick the pendant they want or colors and then I do the rest. I have also had people bring me a pendant of there own and make pieces for them or fix something that is broken. Also, if you need real gold or silver for your earrings, let me know and I will change them for just an extra $1.00. I have hundreds of pendants to choose from and thousands of beads to work with. My sets come with a necklace, earrings, and a bracelet with you can choose to buy separate if you like. If you do choose to buy the whole set I will take an extra $2.00 off my already low prices.
If you would like to set up a party and get some free stuff, give me a list of who you want to invite, there addresses and I will send the invitations out for you. You will receive a free $10 dollars just for setting the party up, every hundred dollars sold at the party is an extra $5.00, also, if one of your friends sets up a party I will add on another $10 dollars of free merchandise. If your home is too small to have a party there you are welcome to have it at my house. All I would ask is that you supply your own refreshments. I also do CHILDERN'S PARTIES where I bring all my beads and pendants with me and teach them how to make their own necklaces.The kids absolutely love it, even the younger boy's have a great time using the glow in the dark beads!! I have plastic beads for the smaller children so it's a better price for you parents but they may use whatever beads you/they would like. For the children's party just let me know at least 2 weeks in advance so I can make arrangements and make sure I have everything I will need. There will be more info to come and more pictures as well. If you see something you like you may contact me on here or give me a call. I'd be happy to send it to you thru the mail for the extra $4.95 it costs (depending on how many things you get) or you are more than welcome to come pick it up.
