Make It March: the guinea pig edition

the contraceptive igloo in use

I can now officially confirm that spring is with us.
Over on my other blog, I'm running a series of posts thru March with the theme "Make It March" which is meant to encourage me to be creative and make some carp. So far I've tackled my website (which is now the aforementioned blog thanks to Blogger adding static pages into the mix) and gone thru the agony of photographing, describing and listing some more jewelry in my Etsy shop.


the noisy antics soon draw a crowd of perverts interested bystanders

Thanks to mild weather and increasing daylight, the guinea pigs thought they would make their contribution to Make It (Out) March too. She (Becca) came into oestrus, and he (Gullible) spent yesterday shagging (NB: link poss NSFW!) her senseless. It all involved a lot of chasing around the cage and squeaking noisily in an aggrieved manner.
That is, until she discovered the power of the contraceptive igloo! and re-discovered the mathematical perfection that states two into one will not go.



impossible to hump, inside or outside


Gullible likewise made a discovery. There is not enough room in a pigloo in which to swing into action.
Contrary to last year, he's now the one wearing the look of disappointment!

new spring lines in production

Spring is in the air, there's only an inch of new snow on the deck and I'm ramping up production on the spring lines for delivery to Devil May Wear (hopefully in time for an Easter spending spree).

I've got some great new bead mixes for Spring, bright and vibrant to shake away the winter blahs, just right for adding to some wire crochet cuffs. This one is one of my beaujangle cuffs, using some awesome glass hoops in with acrylic flower charms and vintage glass. There's also some bright and funky new spring chainmaille on the drawing board and hopefully some equally eye-catching earrings to match up.

Time to get colourful again!
