Magpie Alert: Ooh, Shiny

[gerisullivan]

elisem's evocatively-named, hand-made jewelry is a good value and source of ongoing delight at any time. Every so often, she runs sales and the values get downright mind-bogglingly excellent. This weekend is one of those times.

Just look at this closeup from FaerylandForReal and the exuberant cacophony of The Rose of the Vineyards. Then look at her other offerings, too. She has the gift of naming and the grace that helps wire to dance.

Elise also has a history of adding more items and marking prices down further as her sales progress, so it's worth checking back. If a piece really calls to you, it's considerably safer to respond quickly than to wait hoping for a further mark-down. I've been following her occasional sales for the last couple of years and know how quickly the jewelry tends to be claimed by other buyers. As I said, it's a good value anytime. At sale prices, oh, my.

Very true, although I was very lucky one time when a piece I wanted but which was out of my price range remained unclaimed until the very end of the sale, at which point it had been marked down enough that I could afford it. But pieces do go fast, and what doesn't sell in one sale isn't guaranteed to still be around the next time, either.
