New Cherry blossom lantern pendant

This is the second lantern pendant I have made.  This one was a little more challenging but I think it came out great.

Is Summer officially over?

I can't believe Summer is just about over.  Of course maybe not totally here in Southern California.  However, school has started for some kids and the holidays are just around the corner!  I am in the process of making a few Halloween pieces that will be added to both my Etsy and 1000 Markets shops in late September or early October.

New Custom Orders Completed
It is always a treat when I can work with a custom on something they want to turn into a wearable piece of jewelry.

Raccoon Ring

This cute little Raccoon ring is a custom order I just finished.  My customer drew this and sent it to me to turn into a ring. I think it came out great!

This is another custom request - 6 Cherry Blossom Charms with open jump rings! Doesn't the color remind you of Fall?

New for September

Seeing that school just started for some kids ( not my 3 year old), I will be taking a vacation in the middle of the month!!  I will be leaving my shop open for that week so if you stop by, please read the shop announcement.

I will be in the process of making a few Halloween pieces that will be added to both my Etsy and 1000 Markets shops in late September or early October.

I want to say, Thank you to all my new customers and returning customers! August was a great month!

Happy Birthday my Little Hapa Girl!

Birthday Giveaway!

With 2 more days left of the month my special ice cream charm is still in the shop!  Go to Hapa Girls  and read my shop announcement to see how you can get this cute little charm!!!

Personalizing your work.

I am so excited to finally have my own signature stamp to personalize my work.  From here on out, all of my pieces including all of my cherry blossoms will be signed by ME!!!   I also sign the surfboard feeders but I do that by hand!!

Here is a sample of what it will look like! 

Goodbye June - Hello July!

June was a very busy busy month for me! I appreciate all the new hearts in my Etsy shop as well as the orders that followed!

My family and I were able to take a mini vacation to the Grand Canyon and Las Vegas! My daughter had a great time taking her first train ride on the Grand Canyon Railway.  We all had a great time and it was a much needed vacation. We hope to be taking another one in August and this time my husband and I will go rock hunting!

New in the shop this month

Lately I have been obsessed with making different types of flowers from copper.  I hope to be creating more flowers and adding new one of a kind pendants and bracelets to my shop. Hapa Girls is becoming a "Copper Garden".

Let's promote one another!

I have joined a new group on Etsy called, " Bringing Unselfishness Your Way".  I found them in the Etsy forums.  Go check them out and get your name added to the list of shops.

 
As always, I would like to thank all my followers on my blog, twitter and Facebook fans.  Also, a Big THANK YOU to all me customers an returning customers!
  



 

New In shops!

Well it has been a while since I last updated my blog! I have been extremely busy. I think that's a good thing!!


I have recently added my Hapa Girls Shop to another Handmade Market place, Craft Is Art.  It's a great looking Market Place with an Etsy importer.  So far I have not had any sales but I will give it a try for 6 months as a basic member which is FREE.

I have recently added some new items to my Etsy and 1000 Markets shops and hope to have another give away for the summer.

Cherry Blossom Festival of Southern California

This weekend is the Cherry Blossom Festival of Southern California. Located in Little Tokyo near Downtown LA.  It should be a great weekend of crafts, entertainment, food and of course sales! I have been very busy making rings, earrings, bracelets and pendants for this 2-day festival. I have even made a new style of cherry blossom that will be for sale this weekend. The new design has rounded petals and has a fun feel.  I will be adding it to my shops this week.  Here is a sneak peek!

Have a great weekend and stop by the Cherry Blossom Festival if you live in the Los Angeles area. 

New Hibiscus Ring

My first Hibiscus! A little tricky to make but well worth it!

New Triple Branch Cherry Blossom Cuff

I have had many request to make a bracelet in the first photo. I have finally created the "Triple Branch Cuff". In creating this cuff, I wanted to keep the multiple cherry blossom look as well as the sturdy integrity of the bracelet. I also wanted to create a gorgeous piece of wearable art that was affordable for anyone. In order to do that I have made one of the branches from 12g wire and the other two branches from 14g wire.

2 Triple branch cuffs

The Triple Branch Cuff is now listed in my Etsy shop. I will be listed it on 1000 Markets as well.
