My wife has been making jewelry lately. She has a few thing up for sale at her Etsy.com store (http://www.etsy.com/shop/VENUSinFAUXxFURS)
She is going to be listing more in the next few days and weeks.

If you see something you like but want a different color or style, she can accommodate most requests within reason.

There is mostly beading work and some sea glass jewelry for sale. Check out her store and save it to see what else is listed in the future.

Thanks guys.

Earrings for $5 and $6.50? Pretty decent prices. Also I saw something on the bottom about chinchillas, Do you guys have a chinchilla farm?

It occasionally seems like a farm but no. We currently have four Chinchillas. One male and three females. One is the mate of a chin that we had that passed away and the other two are their daughters.

Good friends of ours run a Chinchilla rescue. These were chins that were taken from bad homes or pet stores that don't know how to care for them. Chins have more specialized needs than other small animals and most people don't take the time to research what they buy before they buy them.

I'm gonna add tags to this here and do some pic promo to bump up their Google rankings.

I don't know anything about jewelry, but can tell ya Frankie is a good and honest guy.:thumbsup: I can't see why his wife wouldn't be as honest as he is. Her e-bay ratings are good, and the products look fairly priced. :cool:

Take a look at some of the nice stuff they have. :wow:

I'm sure Frankie would be glad to answer any questions ya might have, either via PM, e-mail, or in this thread.

Good luck, Frankie, if there's any other way I can help you 2 let me know. :HappyWave:

I would not hesitate buying your wife, loved one, mother, sister, etc. anything from Frankie's wife. I received my special order necklace. It is so Beautiful! I purchased it for my niece and "Mrs. Frankie", went above and beyond to make sure I received it in time.

The design, colors and crystals are spectacular, any wife would love it.
