The Flying Skeleton's logo and updates.

I finally have a logo for The Flying Skeleton! I know, I know, what does a picture of an octopus from a textbook have to do with a flying skeleton? The answer? Absolutely nothing. I love octopuses, and I couldn't think of a single way to incorporate a flying skeleton into my jewelry company's logo. But an octopus? I could think of exactly what I wanted it to look like. So instead of going for something obvious, that made actual sense, I went for something more 'random', out-there, and quirky. I think that fits my jewelry style better, anyway.

I've made some slight changes to the blog, mainly removing the bat and heart dividers. After looking at my blog design for quite sometime, I decided that those made things just too busy, and I wanted more simplicity in the design so people would concentrate on my product, my handmade jewelry.

I'm working as hard as ever to get my ArtFire and Etsy shops opened up! The ArtFire shop will be opening first, watch for that! I'm so excited about this, I hope you guys are too!!!

Your waiting has not been in vain.

I'm working my tail off [I wish I had a tail to work off, alas I am tailless] to get my Etsy and ArtFire shops up and running. They should be up and running smoothly by the middle of February! Very, very exciting. I tried to upload some photos for your viewing pleasure, but unfortunately Blogger and Flickr are not cooperating today. So here's a link to my Flickr. Enjoy!

Goodness me!

So many decisions, so much excitement, so little time! I am taking on new partners in crafty crime! I have enlisted the help of my 2 best friends to turn The Flying Skeleton upside down! I've been itching to get my hands on items like paint and seashells for quite sometime, but I haven't had anything to really justify such purchases. But now we are turning The Flying Skeleton into a gift shop for goths/punks/steampunkers/and neo-Victorians. We will sell handmade, hand finished, hand altered goods specifically designed for those people in your life that keep bats as pets and have black lights in their bedroom. And of course, if you are that person, go ahead and treat yourself to a gift! Or send the link to our ArtFire or Etsy shop or even this blog to your loved ones.
Every item will arrive at your door gift-wrapped and ready to be given [even if you ordered the item for yourself. What's better than buying your self a gift?] Every item is unique and handled carefully, so you can be sure that you are purchasing a good quality item.
But don't worry! We're going to do more than just sell you stuff! This blog will be full of our excursions and artistic endeavors, giving you insight on what's going on in our lives and what projects we're currently working on. Can't wait to start!!
