grand opening [metamorph supplies]


i am moving all of my handmade supplies from my metamorph Etsy shope next door to metamorphSupplies. i have expanded my line of supplies and felt that my original shop was starting to feel a bit crowded. the move will take place gradually over the next few weeks. during that time supplies will be available in both locations, and i am more than happy to combine shipping costs. keep and eye on the new store for new styles of links and earwires, and for larger quantities of old favorites.

- - - stitched - - -

while browsing through the pages of Etsy, i discovered several sellers who are combining traditional sewing techniques, like embroidery, smocking, and cross stitch, with metal design and jewelry techniques. the results are modern, fresh and beautiful. i love the fact that these sellers are preserving tradition while at the same time updating the techniques and making them their own.
