I made these today. Same idea, different scales. Timeline of the first 5000 days of the Voyager missions to the outer planets. Each bead stands for 10 days. Planet beads when they were sciencing planets. Gold bead for each new year. Wrap bracelet ($250) or hanging art ($290). #EmilysSpaceCraft

I've ordered the greens, blues, and pinks I need to make all the rest of the pride flags. If you are somebody who would like pride rebellion JWST jewelry, earrings or necklace, when I have the parts I need to make it, contact me & I'll reserve parts for you!
#EmilysSpaceCraft
So I thought: Queer rebellion #JWST jewelry. With beads I already had on hand, I made this test pair of earrings featuring carnelian, jade, rhodonite, and rhodolite stones, the colors of the lesbian pride flag. The stones are 2mm, the pendants 13mm wide. #EmilysSpaceCraft
Bear with me this afternoon as I highlight some of the ways that I've stuffed a lot of science into the art and jewelry that I make. #EmilysSpaceCraft
If you're gift shopping, I'm shipping until December 18, and then I'm gone 'til the New Year!

Just made these Jupiter earrings. I picked out these Botswana agate beads as a pair but it wasn’t until I assembled the earrings that I discovered that one of the beads actually has a red spot! 😍

Look at all the stuff I sold yesterday! There’s an awful lot more where this came from. And because I did too much bead shopping this year, I am, ahem, still in the red on the year. So I need a few more days like this one has been…

Got some new parts in yesterday. Now I have to decide whether I want to try making anklets or ear cuffs next. Anklets will probably be whole solar system. if I do ear cuffs, which worlds? Hmm. #EmilysSpaceCraft
I try to use sales to guide how should focus my precious last two weeks of making time before 2023. I just sold two of my last three Pluto/Charon items, so I’m making a few pairs of earrings now…

Progress! After initial shaping I always set my trees aside for a day or two before final shaping. Same thing I do with a feature article, actually. That last bit of editing needs fresh eyes. These will be going up for sale Mon or Tue. #EmilysSpaceCraft

Saturday morning, no rest for the wicked. Three little trees now baking their roots into polymer clay in pots in my oven, and two new experiments: rooting trees in geodes. I’m hopeful that the jewelry glue+bent wire roots+nooks and crannies will secure them. #EmilysSpaceCraft
Just a reminder that I have an Etsy shop full of great gifts for all genders and ages: jewelry, bookmarks, sculpture, keychains, etc. etc. for lovers of astronomy, planets, and geekery of all kinds:

Sales in my Etsy shop finally started ticking up last week, woohoo. I'll keep trying to make more and restock as long as I can. I love it when sales pick up, but there's only so long I can sustain making stuff every spare hour....

Just listed! These jasper-and-garnet earrings in 14kt gold-filled or sterling silver sold out so quickly that I just made 7 more pairs. Thanks for supporting my shop! #EmilysSpaceCraft

Oh I’m so enamored of how this tree came out. Gemstone beads 2-18mm in diameter represent all worlds in solar system >900km (so, Ceres & bigger) I planted it in a geode and built a stand in back with polymer clay so it sits up and catches the light beautifully.

I just finished a commission for someone ordering bracelets to wear in honor of a kid ♥️ The bi pride one in particular is so beautiful up close. There’s so much dimension in these translucent blue aventurine, pale amethyst, and sugilite beads. #EmilysSpaceCraft
