About this Product
Our cherry red hearts long for you. We're special, medium-sized, and made of glass to be seen. Each of us is attached to three faceted light pink glass beads, nearly transparent, except to sparkle. The middle pink beads are embellished with detailed gold plated bead caps. We're carefully handmade and approximately 2 and 1/4 inches long. We're short or medium-length, depending on how you want us. We can go out or stay in, as long as we're with you.
Please keep us in a cool, dry place so we can keep our gold color for as long as possible.

Meet the Maker
Hi there! I am an educator, cat mom, and maker in San Diego, CA. I make jewelry and I upcycle boxes into wall art and cards.
I'm a self-taught jewelry designer and maker, with friends donating beads and supplies to start. I could not have gotten here without investment from my friends at this critical juncture. Today, I design and make jewelry that is functional, unique, and beautiful, and that starts with shopping for components that inspire me. The pieces that I make are the ones that I would wear myself, so I know you will look fantastic, too! When someone wears my jewelry, I imagine that the wearer feels a boost of confidence to run the world.
In addition to jewelry, I also upcycle. I have been upcycling since I was a kid, but I didn't get here until I taught an upcycling course. This course is about the importance of producing less waste, preserving resources, and sustainability. I practice this in my life as well. For example, I give ice cream and snack boxes a second chance at life by turning them into wall art, and you may see some of them in my store.
Customers also see that I promote sustainability by using paper-based jewelry boxes, and sometimes, packaging materials are reused. I also give jewelry a second chance at life. Some customers ask me to make a bracelet from a broken necklace or fix a pair of earrings. I do my best to do good for customers and Earth.

Processing Timeframe
I take 1-3 days to process, pack, and ship your order. I use USPS so please allow time for delivery.
We can alternatively schedule a date, time, and place for local pickup. Please note that if the location is too far or there is too much conflict with scheduling for pickup, your order will be shipped.
If the address for an order is an apartment, but there is no field to input an apartment number or suite when checking out your cart, please send me a message with
- Your name,
- Your order number,
- The apartment number or suite
so I can add it to the shipping label. It's better to be clear and thorough so you get what you ordered.
The customer is responsible for inputting the correct address and at a location that is not prone to package theft. The shop owner not responsible for package theft.
Issues with Order
Please send me a message as soon as you notice any issue with your order, and include photos and/or videos of how the package(s) and item(s) arrived. You have 7 days from the day the package arrived to notify me of any issues with your order.
If jewelry arrived broken,
- We can set up a date, time, and place for me to fix it
- You can send it to me, and I will send it back when I fix it
If wall art arrived misshapen or in pieces, I will need to fix it at my workspace and send it back to you. It is recommended that all wall art is picked up instead of delivered.
Return Policy
Please send me a message with the reason(s) why you want to return the item(s).
When returning, the customer is responsible for properly packing the item(s) and for the cost of shipping. The amount refunded may be deducted for issues with products where the customer is at fault, for example, not packing items properly or plating is removed from jewelry due to actual wear.
Items marked in the Clearance category are not eligible for return, replacement, or repair.
Jewelry Care
Plated jewelry. Please avoid activities where moisture is involved (such as swimming, bathing, and exercising) while wearing plated jewelry to maintain the plating.
When not worn, it is best to keep jewelry in a cool, dry, and dark place, such as in a jewelry box. Hang chains and necklaces to prevent tangling.
Wall Art Care
Keep art in a cool place that avoids sunlight and water. When placed or hung in hot weather or a hot room, the art piece can curl or bend. It will straighten again in cool temperatures. Additionally, when in sunlight for prolonged periods of time, the colors will fade and/or change.
