Finally got around to making some business cards

The front side of my new business cards
I finally got around to ordering some business cards. I figured I would save some time and money and just order online. I went with a standard business card from Vistaprint. It cost less than $20, including shipping, for a set of one-hundred double-sided cards. Hopefully they turn out nice. I figured that it is much cheaper to just order them verses buying ink and special paper for my printer.

Autumn Accessories and Extensions

For Autumn, I've been finishing up a series of more natural colored wool locs, in shades of brown, red, pumpkin, ginger, and auburn. The set above is made from Icelandic and Merino wool, and hand-dyed with food-safe non-toxic dye and vinegar. The coordinating accent beads are made with solid copper wire, glass beads, freshwater pearls, and lead-safe base metal accent charms.

I will be listing these on my Etsy Shop: NUCL3ARBUTT3RFLY

Hand-Dyed 64Ct Merino Wool Dreads

https://www.etsy.com/shop/NUCL3ARBUTT3RFLY

This is a set of 24 DE (double ended, so, when folded in half, there are 48 ends) custom hand-dyed wool dreads.
-Made from super soft 64ct Merino

-They vary in length from roughly 12"-18" when folded over.

I dyed these with non-toxic acid dyes, which are made from food-safe dye and vinegar. 

The color is a subtle range of darker maroon/wine/eggplant/violet with medium muted tones of blue/violet/burgundy and highlights of pastel aqua/lavender/blue/orchid. *Please allow for slight differences in color due to lighting/camera

These dreadlocks are brand new, never worn, pre-washed, and ready to be installed or turned into falls. Like all my dreads, they have been stored with natural lavender. 

Wool dreadlocks can be washed. I recommend hand-washing in cool water with mild soap and hanging to dry. However, if you decide to machine wash these, the best method is "delicate" (cool) water for washing, and the lowest possible heat setting. (For machine washing/drying, use a garment bag or pillow case.) Although the dye has been heat set, and the dreads have been pre-washed, exercise caution if washing with other items. 

These are available through my Etsy shop:
