Wearable Magic

[talkstowolves]

So, I have this friend named Mia who makes beautiful things.

They're pendants: small, ceramic, painted in metallic and pearlescent and flat paints, often with different types of media mixed in: flowers, maybe, or sparkling bubbles or little images.

But there's so much more than that: these pendants are stories. They're little poetic fairy tales, phrases built from words cut from old fairy tale books that, when oriented just so by Creatrix Mia, transform the world. These little poems are powerful. They're the distilled essence of folk and fairy tale and myth, and we all know where those live in the human consciousness.

So far, I am the exceedingly lucky owner of two such pendants, with negotiations in progress for a third:

.

I have received "wicked girls saving ourselves" in the mail already, and all I can say is: Wow! It packs as much punch for me in reality as it did in the picture. For all intents and purposes, I am a wicked girl saving myself. And having such a lovely pendant, textured by a dried flower, red iridescence over pure black, all strung on a red ribbon (easily switched out with a cord): well, it just makes me want to strut a little straighter.

I can't wait to receive "Glimmers in the Dark" or finish up negotiations on "Firebird Outside of Time."

For the vernal equinox, Mia debuted a huge collection of new pendants. Completely unsurprisingly, they're almost all gone. Completely surprisingly, on the other hand, are the ones that haven't sold:

. .

Can you believe those gorgeous pieces are still available? I can't! And, if I had more money, they wouldn't be. But it's lucky for you, dear friends-- you still have the opportunity to secure these remarkable creations for your own.

Thank you, Mia, for your friendship and your creativity. You are enchanting.

(If you are interested in any of her pendants, hie you over to chimera_fancies. The "Beautiful Magician" pendant is actually available from her first posting, while all the others are in her most recent Vernal Equinox update.)

I just saw this post... my goodness! these are fantastic. The ones you purchased are wonderful!

I love them to bits, and I think one of them has already inspired a short story! (Speaking of inspiring stories, there's another piece called "Entrance to a Private Space" that's sent some wheels spinning through my head. ;))
