Specializing in Refurbishing and Reimagining Leftovers into Modern Statement Pieces

Beauty is often found in unlikely places. I find it by reinventing tired, ordinary, or discarded materials into something functional and beautiful.

I have some amazing friends hosting parties the next couple of days. If you live in S. Austin or Buda, come join us tomorrow (Thursday night) at @jackiehooks1’s casa. If you live North or Central, I’ll be hanging out with my friend @rccollins512 on Friday night! (These are at my friends houses so I don’t want to make addresses public but I’m happy to share if you DM me.) 😍❤️🌲

Check out my newest sign. It took a while to find the right font combo to find the “feel” I was looking for... but I love how it turned out. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

Does “Fail Sale” sound ominous or negative? We

Does “Fail Sale” sound ominous or negative? Well, hear me out for a minute. This last month has been a big one for my little jewelry business. First thing? I BOUGHT MY OWN LASER. This gives me a huge sense of autonomy and freedom. I’ve been making more of my plexi signs and have the ability to cut my jewelry and signs whenever I have time because I have my own laser.

Second, because of this new tool of mine, I felt empowered to apply to a really cool holiday show in ATX. It has fantastic and quirky gifts from local makers and is my family’s favorite place to do our Christmas shopping. Well, today I got my answer about the show, “We’re sorry to inform you that you were not selected...” Rejection can sting but thankfully I’ve learned a few things about “no” as I’ve gotten older… primarily that if I let the possibility of failure stop me from trying, that’s the real loss. And I’ve also experienced that a willingness to learn new things and take chances can sometimes be inherently rewarding in itself. So with a sense of resilience and optimism, I’m celebrating my most recent failure with my customers, some of the most supportive people in the world. Use coupon code “failsale” to get 25% off all jewelry. ❤️

Football season is upon us! I made a few pairs of these earrings from some beautiful leather scraps from @austincreativereuse. I’ll have them in the store later tonight but wanted to give you a sneak peak. 😍🏈👍🏽🤘🏽
