# About me

Come visit me on Etsy!

www.etsy.com/your/shops/Baltha…

Welcome to Balthasar Craft - Reversing the Industrial Revolution one piece at a time.

I make hand crafted one-of-a-kind wire wrap, gemstone and sea glass jewelry! Every piece has a story, some unknown and waiting to be told, others hinting with soft secrets of unseen worlds. I create wire wrap pendants, earrings, ear cuffs, bracelets, chokers, and ornate head pieces with the inspiration of ancient times and times that never were ...

Gemstones, crystals, sea glass, shells, and other natural materials are used to create my unique jewelry, inspired by Mother Earth herself. My work is environmentally friendly and crafted with love and positive energy. Be at one with the earth, sea, air, and fire of Creation. Balthasar Craft is your natural jewelry store.

If you're interested in a custom made piece please contact me! I love to take commissions!

Renee Boyett of naynaymacrame.etsy.com has used my pendants in
a number of her beautiful macrame pieces. When you purchase my work
and send it to her for a custom made piece, we will both give you 25%
off - 25% off the pendant, and 25% off the necklace she makes for you.
Contact me if you're interested in this. We'll be able to ship the
piece directly to her (for free!), and you can contact her with the
finer details of what you'd like to have, her price requirement, and
shipping cost for the finished item.

Remember everything is handmade and no two items will ever be exactly the same!

Thanks for faving my fan tan choker! Like you, I have removed the item from my Etsy shop but the choker and matching bracelet are still available.


And looking at all your info above all I can say is - were we separated at birth?? You seem to love all the same things I do!!


I was also sad to learn of Tanith Lee's passing. I am a great fan of hers. I got to meet her back in '84 at World Fantasy Con Ottawa. She was such a lovely gracious person with a wonderful sense of humor. When I went to the book signing everyone else was lined up for Stephen King and there was nobody in her line at all, so I ended up talking to her for about half an hour and we had a marvelous time.

Thank you!  Your work is beautiful!  I've added you on Etsy and on here.  Not sure what kind of advice you want.  I really like what you do.  This one is particularly lovely: www.etsy.com/listing/217931443… .

Thank you very much for your add  
The fact is that i've been on etsy for one month now and have a few pageviews and even less favs...i'm starting to think that my work isn't as good as i thought...and it is frustrating
Thanks for the compliments, knowing that someone appreciates my creations really cheers me up! ^.^

balthasarcraft In reply to Martokkia [2015-01-26 18:12:22 +0000 UTC]

This may encourage or discourage you, but the reality is that I've been crafting for years now, and I very rarely make a sale :/  I've seen very talented artists who sell very well, and very talented artists who sell poorly.  I've also seen poor artists who sell well.  Success and artistic skill aren't as closely connected as a lot of people think :/  Marketing skill helps, and so does a huge amount of luck.  Your work in any case is beautiful, and you should be proud of it.  Overnight success is a rare thing, and a month is not a very long time, so hopefully you will get more attention and sales with time  But either way, know your work is very good

EYEYE you should try out these frequencies

For hormonal balance, and all physical and psychological ailments <3

www.youtube.com/watch?v=kUVMPC…

Rife frequencies, Isothronic Tones, Binaural Beats, etc. They have helped me a great deal with everything, drink plenty of water though. Alot of healing right there

Stay away from the spiritual stuff though, not Christ!!
