I've been so so bad...

... the last few weeks, about posting announcements! This weekend, though, I finally had the big show I've been preparing for... THANK YOU, everyone who came by to say hi! That was so great! :)

I've just finished posting beads for the evening, I won't go into detail but there are some nice things up... I've been playing again. :)

Can't look, can't look, can't look... Ok I looked...

Oh Kalera! Ruby Blue Orbitals and Fantasy Espresso Squeeze... OMG

But the mailman brought me a *beautiful* caged focal from you today and I just held it (ok, fondled it!) to ease my grief!!!

yay! I grabbed the ruby and blue orbitals and the romantic mist set.

have you done away with reservations and the bead of the month? I noticed you don't have sections for them anymore.

Thanks, Amber! I also got your lovely note with your order, and it made me smile. Thank you!

I still take reservations, but I made them INVISIBLE so people would stop buying them out from under the reservee! I kept having to issue refunds, send a tactful email to the would-be buyer, and repost the beads. Now when you reserve something, you get a direct link to the reservation section.

The BOMC I took down temporarily because between hav> yay! I grabbed the ruby and blue orbitals and the romantic mist set. >

I was wondering if people ever bought up beads that were already reserved...or if the "put in cart button" was disabled. Tsk tsk tsk. Don't people realize every Monday are more beads that you have to have?!?

If it happened this week I would cry!!!!!!! Wait... I think I threatened that before!!! I so wanted to show off the ones I reserved this week but that little 'Add to cart' button worried me! :) [j/k]

But I will say that both sets, especially Cinnamon Stone, left me speechless (imagine that!)... and there is something *very* emotional about that red in Rubian Boro.

Divine beads... absolutely!!!!

I always wondered about that, if people paid no attention to the "reserved for X" notice in the title and bought them anyways. It's surprising how some folk just don't notice things like that, or don't care.

I think that most of the time when it happens, people just somehow didn't notice, or simply didn't get that it was a one-of-a-kind set. Most of the time when it happens, the person emails me back with "Oops, my bad, I didn't realize, sorry about that!" but a couple of times I've gotten no response at all, which made me wonder whether they were just too embarrassed to reply, or if they actually knew what they were doing and hoped to get away with it, LOL! I can see being tempted to do something like that, but I'd never actually DO it.
