My store name was derived from someone who once told me my jewelry was "so whimsical." Hope she doesn't read this or she may want a percentage! I've been selling on other people's sites but family and friends have dragged me kicking and screaming into the computer age. Let me just say this...I have met the enemy and it is I...at least as far as computers are concerned. I depend on my daughter to keep my site up and running. Each jewelry piece is an original. I never make (or even attempt to make) anything twice. The lampwork glass pieces are all slowly cooled in a temperature controlled kiln to prevent cracking. I like to work with sterling silver, pewter, gold, semi-precious stones, natural stones, lampwork glass, crystals, and whatever else strikes my fancy. Since I'm so kind and accommodating to my friends, one of them actually asked if she could sell some of her jewelry on my site! Will I ever learn??? She buys jewelry from around the world and there's lots of pretties to gaze upon! Right now there are some really good buys if you're looking for something unique for that special person. Also, during the holidays, I'm offering free boxing and gift wrapping. I strongly urge you to insure your package. If it isn't insured, I cannot be held responsible if it gets lost or damaged in the mail. Most importantly, I want you to be happy with your purchase. If you're not satisfied with your jewelry, you may return your purchase within 10 days and I will return your money, minus shippings costs. Since I don't have a phone in my studio (it interferes with my off-key singing), please email me with any questions you may have. I check my email frequently. admin@thehouseofwhimsy.com |
