Happy Spring everyone! After several months without a newsletter or Bird of the Month, it is SO great to be back! Some health issues and a back injury put me out of commission for some time, thus the lack of news lately! I'm healing up though, and am thrilled to be getting back to work.

I thought the Pacific Parrotlet would be a nice choice for April's Bird of the Month, with all of their pretty pastel colors! On auction are an American Yellow Male beaded necklace and earring set, a Blue Male pendant on cord, and two charms: one Blue Male and one Green Male. All of the parrotlets are on auction for the next 5 days on eBay, ending on Saturday!

This cute Green Quaker charm is also currently being auctioned on eBay, ending on Saturday!

To celebrate my return to work, as well as the beginning of Spring, I have a special coupon for you - 30% off all of my current inventory on Etsy through the end of the month!

Use the code "springsale2012" when you check out, in order to receive the discount! (I cannot apply the discount if you check out without using the coupon code.)

The coupon code can be used in both of my Etsy shops, and applies to EVERYTHING in stock!

I've beaded up one of my fun "scrap clay birds" into a necklace, with matching earrings! This long tailed parrot has many colors marbled through the body, including pale yellow, teal, crimson, with a glossy finish. The parrot could represent a variety of species, it's up to your imagination!

This set is being auctioned on eBay for the next 5 days, and ends on Saturday!
