Banishing the Economy Blues in Red

Here's the next in the series of bracelets and matching earrings for vanquishing economic recession. The philosophy is this: wouldn't it be better to give an inexpensive handmade gift to yourself or to someone you care about than mass-produced bling at the same price? It's a chance to own something artisan-crafted.

These bracelets are priced at $39.99, with free shipping. It barely covers the cost of materials, and certainly not the cost of labor or design, but it keeps the good karma going.

I just finished this set in red.

And there are matching earrings.

They're in my ebay store.

I am currently building a shrine to appease the evil eBay gods. It couldn't hurt. What shall we chant before it?
