Bacon Lovers Treasury
Oh, bacon, I have a love-hate relationship with you… I love how you taste, but I hate the resulting poundage and artery-clogging. I try to swear you off but you keep creeping back into my life with your tempting aroma and mouth-watering flavor. Clearly I am not alone in my bacon longings. Crissy aka LoveAndSpunk has fried up a delicious “Bacon Love” treasury. She was kind enough to include my Bacon Lovers Earrings. Enjoy the flavor before it expires!
And check out my other available bacon jewelry items:
Yum!

Suckers Treasury
nosperpectua has scoured Etsy’s depths for the best suckers to add to her latest treasury. Nope, not the sucker born every minute. This time we’re talking tentacles, cephalopods, nautilus, octopus – the suckers of the sea. She was gracious enough to include my Royal Blue Neon Nautilus Earrings (see top right) in her collection. Click the image below to view the entire thing.
I made these earrings from blue vintage fan-shaped acrylic charms, matching glass cathedral beads, and silver components. Now, you might be a bit surprised to see a Gearbunny item that’s not polymer clay. Although I have a soft spot for clay I always keep my eyes open for other inspiring materials. When I spotted those vintage fan beads at a Chelsea flea market, I couldn’t resist and knew they’d make a kick-ass pair of earrings. The pair I created in hot pink already sold out! These are one-of-a-kind so grab them before they disappear into the deep.

As always this treasury won’t last so browse on over today by clicking on the picture.

Nurse Treasury
My Rhinestone Band-Aid pin was selected for a new Etsy treasury featuring nurse-themed goodies. Thanks, HouseHoldWords, for choosing it! I am such a sucker for anything nurse-related. And that latex/rubber nurse costume is just scrumptious. This treasury will only be active for a limited time so check it out NOW :]

Your Art Studio Organization Style
One of my obsessions is seeing the work spaces of artists I admire. It’s so interesting to get a behind-the- scenes look at how they organize their spaces and supplies. Do they have their own studio or do they work from home? Are they a Clean Queen or a Messy Bessie? (Yes, I just came up with that one! Clever…)
Over the years of crafting I’ve discovered that I’m definitely a mix of both. Generally I like to keep all my supplies and projects displayed on my desk around me. That way I have my materials available at a glance to inspire me. I call it organized chaos. My loved ones call it a disaster area. And they may have a point – the downside to this system is that I often end up with a desk cluttered with clay, beads, pliers, tools, you name it. I’ve also perfected the art of sweeping things off to the side of my desk to clear a workable (yet tiny) space for current crafting. After awhile the clutter will bring me to my knees and I do a giant clean sweep, ending up with a clear pristine desk. Only to accumulate again, and the cycle begins anew.
What’s your creative space style? Clean Queen, Messy Bessie, or a hybrid somewhere in-between?

Hello… I make jewelry.
And I am a multifaceted beast! I currently sell my work under two pseudonyms. My Gearbunny line is where I express my punky, industrial, cute and morbid side. Here you’ll find polymer clay jewelry and accessories. I mainly focus on necklaces, charms, pendants, bracelets, and earrings, but I have been known to branch off into hair accessories and brooches. My inspiration comes from club and music culture and weird, quirky thoughts that pop into my head. I have been creating jewelry as Gearbunny since 2006.
My jewelry alterego is LapinJade (ooh la la, that’s jade rabbit, in French). Launched in April of 2008, it’s a newer endeavor. My LapinJade jewelry features sterling silver wire-wrapping and original silver pieces that I’ve forged myself using metalworking techniques. The versatility of silver is very inspiring. I also use various gemstones and precious materials. Overall this is a more elegant, classically beautiful line.
Gearbunny and LapinJade are both equally ME, so you’ll find updates for both on this site!
Currently I sell my work on Etsy, a fantastic virtual marketplace for all things handmade. Visit Gearbunny here, and LapinJade over here.
