True Kustom Jewelry

Jewelry for delinquents... Handbuilt in the USA!

About Me

I'm currently taking some time off so I can regroup. I'm working on an art collective with my hetero-lifemate (er, lifemates?). All Etsy orders will be filled during this time, but I will *NOT* be accepting any new kustom orders for the time being. A girl has gotta take some time to write some grant letters. Know what I'm sayin'?
All the jewelry pictured here is currently for sale in my Etsy shop:

My Interests

silver, hot rods, aquanet, big hair, chrome, turkey sandwiches, gin and tonics, kutoms, greasers, lipstick, side shows, vintage, tattoos, tiki everything, pinstriping, chocolate, sleeping, zombies, vintage cookbooks, sewing, knitting, halloween, rockabilly, cherry limeade

I'd like to meet:

Cool people with great taste in jewelry, sideshow and burlesque performers, pinstripers, low brow artists, indie businesses, vintage kids, rockabilly/psychobilly bands, car clubs, hot rodders, greasers, pin ups, and anyone that happens to live in the wrong decade.
I do NOT want to meet/friend indie/emo bands or people with whom I have absolutely nothing in common. So stop it!
I'm always open to doing kustom work. PM me with your ideas, and we'll work from there.

Movies:

Anything made by Ed Wood. Any cheesy, black and white, horror B-flick ever made. Almost anything starring zombies. 1970's porn.
You were expecting maybe Blue Velvet?

Television:

Ghoul-A-Go-Go, The Simpsons, Family Guy, Sifl and Olly, My Name is Earl, Metalocalypse, Moral Orel, The Munsters

Books:

Huge, boring tomes about business that any normal person would never read in a million years. Catcher in the Rye, Rat Fink: The Art of Ed "Big Daddy" Roth, Pinstriping Masters, Kustom Kulture... enough books about hot rods to choke a small animal.

Heroes:

Mom, Ed "Big Daddy" Roth,

New Policy: One-of-a-kind work and deposits.

I'm sorry to have to do this, but I'm going to have to start taking a $50 non-refundable deposit at the beginning of all new custom one-of-a-kind commissions. It goes toward the final price of the fi...
