About Me

My photo
I started making jewelry in 2004 and it slowly grew into DarkFire Designs. I opened a shop on Etsy a little over a year ago, and later opened Faerie Footprints, a new metaphysical line, also on Etsy. I have now expanded to clothing and whatever crazy accessories form themselves in my head. On November 4th, 2011 DarkFire Designs reformed into d.Kei, and then with continued growth it split into two shops: d.Kei for the clothing and Visual Kei line, and DarkFire Designs remained as the flagship store, with the rest of the jewelry. A fairy kei shop is now in the planning stages.

Claying like Crazy...

I've not been keeping track of this like I should with school back in session and all. Yikes.

Anywho...I've been claying like a madwoman in prep for the harvest fair. I am doing lots of little fruits and veggies this year. Some of what I have done include...

Red, Orange, and Yellow Chili Peppers
Bananas
Oranges
Lemons
Strawberries
Eggplants
Blueberries
Raspberries
Artichokes
Onions
Carrots
Tomatoes
Potatoes

I will be doing much more. I would also like to do Peaches, nectarines, plums, kiwi, avocado, leeks, garlic, lettuce, cabbage, apples, pears, grapes, and whatever else I can think of. ^_^

And that is all, for now. XD

Ribbon. ^_^

I've been working a lot with ribbon lately, and a lot with the three jars of beads I found at the local thrift shop. They really don't make them like they used to. These are the kind of beads that are in beautiful colors, that can take a beating. You can't find them in today's catalogs. Yes, I love glass pearls, but the vintage acrylic pearls are just something else. *love*

But I digress...

There are the latest pieces to come out of my brain and into manifestation.


I like the idea of necklaces that tie with ribbon. They have a softer more couture feel and the wear softer on the neck, especially when its sticky and humid as it is in most parts of the northern hemisphere during these months. ^_^

I have things I need to reshoot because the lighting was crappy. But...I haves new lightbox! :D I can't wait to give it a spin.

This concludes this hour's musings. ^_^
