Plenty of fish in the sea! 🐠🐟

Hello, folks. Yes, this blog is still running. I haven't been consistent with it and frankly, it's embarassing to not be consistent...  But nonetheless, I persist. And I hereby deliver to you this fishy jewelry set. Look how beautiful it is! I am absolutely in love with it.  This necklace set screams 'world peace!' All the fish are different and exist peacefully next to each other. They even have little hearts with a flower inside of them in between them symbolizing love and unity. Everyone takes their own space and fully exercises their right to exist. ❤️ Is this cheesy? Yes. Utopian and delusional? Absolutely. Do I give a damn? Nope.  They also look like yummy snacks for my fancy flamingo self. 🦩  Toodles, folks! Squawk! 💕

Oddball lampwork beads

I bought these little oddball guys on Amazon, and they were unfairly overpriced. I managed to assemble them together into a whimsical creation that's slightly heavier but won't break the wearer's neck. I made matching earrings too. What's the story of this piece, you might ask? There's not much happening here, other than the meeting of two fish who appear to have a crush on each other. The heavier bead at the bottom I got in a store somewhere. I probably should have taken better photos but it is what it is for today. 😌

Nature-Inspired Earrings

Behold, folks - some nature inspiring earrings just for you! Cloudberries, blue flowers, bumblebees, wild strawberries, and all sorts of bell flowers! Colourful, whimsical and flamingo-approved! Feast your eyes on these beauties. I think I should make more of them, but the postal system seems to be cripplingly slow these day and my craft supplies take forever to arrive. I'm hoping this changes soon, but who knows how long that's going to take. Anyway, here you go. And please ignore the human's abominably ugly manicure that was inspired by fishing lures. Pinterest sadly does not translate into reality for the human. The beads are to die for - and there are endless combinations that can be put together. 
Hello world,  Please allow me to reintroduce myself. I'm Lola The Fashionable Flamingo, and I'm back to this blog as an older and wiser bird who got pinker and weirder than ever.  After about 9 years of inactivity, I figured it's the right thing to do. A few life experiences I had since 2016 was aDULLthood trying to dull my vibrancy and turn me into a gray uncreative pigeon. Somewhere along the way, I thought that this blog was cringe, somehow inappropriate (it's not!), and irrelevant if it doesn't make money. And so, I ended up deleting a lot of the content in it, which is quite regrettable. What was underneath it all? Fear of rejection, fear of not being good enough, and the fear of being seen, and brutal self-criticism - can you believe it? A loud pink bird not wanting to be seen?! In what universe?! It's time to dust off my feathers and start again. I'm not sure about the purpose of this blog yet, but who gives a damn? I sure don't.  Squawkfully your...

Flowers, berries, and leaves, oh my!

Magic Fishes, Grant My Wishes!

This is a commission for a men's bracelet. Fish is made of bone. I have bought a few of these fabulous fishes and will be making a necklace that incorporates their fishiness. :D Coming soon! My mom approves. :D
