Just wanted to update everyone on my progress for the 12 Days of Christmas Swop. I have already collected 9 of 12 items. They’re not wrapped yet, I have a lot of personal packing to do before the 12th of November. I shall do all my wrapping after that. 🙂

I’m super excited and hope the future recipient will like them. So far, I have things like stationery, costume jewellery and fashion accessories, and maybe one item could be classed as a trinket. I was straying towards every item being purple, but I forced myself to include items in other colours. ^^

A really talented jewellery artist, Kharisma Ryantori Sommers of Popnicute on Artfire, has featured some items from my store on her blog. The blog post is called For the Love of Miniatures and Christmas in July. Thanks so much, Kay.

Kay makes really lovely ribbon pendants out of solid copper, and also many pretty wire-wrapped pieces. These are my absolute favourites:



Be sure to check out her shop. I really wish I could solder and fuse like she does. I can’t even wire wrap right now . I need to expand my skill set!

ArtFire - Buy Handmade - Sell Handmade

The Christmas in July promotion is starting this Monday, so it’s definitely a good time to buy! I, too, will be having a 10% off storewide sale in my ArtFire store, from 12th to 25th July. Prices will be updated, so no need for buyers to do anything. For my Etsy store, I will give back 10% as a refund through PayPal, if the code ‘CIJ’ is sent to me during checkout or in a convo. Postage costs aren’t included in the promotion, but since I offer flat rate shipping, it’s pretty cheap if you order a number of items. 😀

Get your Christmas presents done really, really early. Happy shopping!
