With luck and a little bit of pixie dust (along with not enough sleep and a shocking amount of coffee and "Call the Midwife"), all of the preordered Darkling Sea Rings are in the mail and traveling to their undines.

This design was a special one for me, a ring made of briny depths and shining as though dipped in sea water. Know that I sent yours with a splash love from my Atlantic heart.
•••••••••••••••••
I did make just a few extras to pop in my shop in time for the holidays. I will photograph them and let you know as soon as they are about to flow onto the shop shelves.
•••••••••••••••••
Also, keep an eye out. I will be having a big, ole holiday sale starting on Friday!

Every now and again, I like to have little surprise sales in my shop without notice or fanfare, for those who serendipitously catch them.

But I wanted to let you know this time so you can plan to pop in for it, if you'd like to pluck something for holiday gifting!

Sweet friends and mermaid hearts! I am nearly finished with all the preorders of the Darkling Sea rings. Phew!

I have been working on the rings steadily since I received the gemstones, quite burning the candle at both ends to try to get them finished for you patient souls.

(As I type this it is 3:57 a.m. after a loooong day of affixing tiny sterling pebbles to all the bands, the final solders. I just couldn't tear myself away from the bench!)

I am going to wait to ship until all 115 preordered rings are finished. There is still polishing, sanding, and stone-setting to be done.

But I am hoping with some concentrated effort on my part, I can have them in the mail by Wednesday before I take my little holiday break.

But if not, first thing next week, I promise!

I have added a little reminder button to this post

I have added a little reminder button to this post, in case you want to receive a little ping reminder when the Autumn Elm Rings arrive in the Etsy shop.

I am currently working on writing the draft listings for the amber rings, and I love seeing them all finished and together. I am rather wishing I had made this a larger collection with earrings and necklaces and such. Perhaps for next time!

What would you have liked to see with amber? Chunkier rings? Stud earrings? Simple necklaces?

All the Autumn Elm Rings are finished and waiting

All the Autumn Elm Rings are finished and waiting to be photographed for their intendeds! Lots of photos incoming. You can pluck one this Sunday!

(In case you missed previous updates via stories or post captions detailing progress on the Darkling Sea Preorders, they are coming along swiftly!

I received the custom cut gemstones about a week ago, and have been working on all your rings ever since.

Since there are over 100 Darkling Sea Rings for me to make (eep!) it is taking a smidge longer than anticipated, especially since I want to finish them all at the same time so I can ship them all at the same time.   But I should have them finished and in the mail to you in less than two weeks! Keep an eye on my stories for more progress updates.)

Finishing up these syrupy amber rings as we speak.

Finishing up these syrupy amber rings as we speak. Eep! I can hardly wait to take a family portrait of them all for you. Pure, distilled autumn magic.
