Until I find a better solution to doing ears with costume jewelry, I will be closing these orders indefinitely. A solution may be found this year, but as of late I've been having severe allergenic reactions to most jewelry folks request on ears. I sometimes have someone in the shop to help with orders, but I cannot rely on them to always be here. I think it will be in our best interest to find something less dangerous for me to use.

Price changes: When we decide on which route to take on jewelry, we'll likely see a price decrease or increase for jewelry additions. It all depend son which route we take.


Taills with wire/bendable cores: I did not realize I had much of a problem with the wire I've been using until my hand started to itch. While the swelling isn't as horrible as jewelry, I'd rather not deal with itchy swelling hands anymore. I'm taking a precaution with all of this as I've recently figured out I've a metals allergy (often severe at times). For now, we'll take on a few of these to allow my assistant extra practice. We want to move away from doing bendable tails anyway, and may opt to do them as premade only :).


I personally do not mean any offence if I decline your commission due to my allergies. There are times when I politely attempt to decline, as I don't like to hurt folks feelings. It breaks my little heart when people become disheartened or upset for declining :(. Please know, if I wasn't severely allergic to some of these materials, I would gladly take on these commissions.

I felt it was best to mention my concerns in a journal so that it is put out there for future reference.

Gosh, I hate this allergy so much D:. Wear ALL the gloves!
