AND ZEE WINNER EEZ:
Susie!
She said, “Deck me out in some plumage baby. Happy Etsiversary, and thank you for this generous giveaway.”
I had a faraway friend (thanks Michele) offer to help me with the contest drawing by using a random number generator. How clever! Oui? The number chosen was 47 and all duplicate comments were not counted! Congratulations Susie! Zip your shipping address to thenoisyplume@gmail.com and I’ll zip that little necklace in your direction (or Sharlee will tomorrow morning when she’s hard at work beneath my wings). Thanks to everyone who left a really lovely comment for me over the past few days! I wanted to bake you all cupcakes by the time Wednesday rolled around.
XOXOXOOXOXOX
And lastly, these, for my little buttercups:
Turquoise, turquoise, carnelian and sterling silver in a delicious smorgasbord of buckle delight.
Prehnite and sterling detail on this beauty which features side by side set flowers. The prehnite used is otherworldly.
A shop update is planned for tomorrow.
I’ll be in and out of the studio until then!
Happy Thursday which is so close to Friday which is essentially the weekend.
You’re my favorite buttercups.
Love,
Plumie
PS There’s a gorgeous storm brewing here. The wind is dirty and my flowers are bowing down beneath it’s vigor. I can’t tell if it’s going to rain but the plough winds feel cool and that’s a relief.
I love the little flower on that first belt buckle!
Absolutely g o r g e o u s buckles.
Maybe your wind is the unfurling of that banner I promised…
Here, after a spectacular thunderstorm, it's cooled off too. Great gusts out of the north are making the mighty linden sway like a sapling!
Mmm, beautiful buckles. just beautiful. Your face in the background looks like you had a hard days work.
We are catching the edge of that stprm youve got too.
The wind is wiping and the dust is droving the pebbles and sticks around on the ground.
( yes, droving is a word)
looking forward to your update. I can never catch the shop in time!!
OooooOOooohhhhh pretty pretty, Miss Jilli! Just beautiful! You are going to make me start wearing belts again simply so I can have one of your gorgeous buckles at my waist. Lovely! Hope I check in at the right time…
Ps. Congrats to Susie!
Isabel was peeking over my shoulder while I was reading this post. She saw the first belt buckle and said "WHOA! Tell Jillian that I said that is AWESOME!"
It is awesome indeed 🙂
Oh Jillian, Beauteeeeful & scrumptiousness. What else can I say. Gorgeousness belt buckles! 🙂
OK, I didn't get the necklace, but I'm totally good with a cupcake.
BTW, your buckles are crazy awesome.

You made my day Jillian – thank you for your generous giveaway.
P.S. That belt buckle gave me palpitations.
The way you take advantage of all the "canvas space" on your belt buckles astounds me. Truly beautiful art, friend. Heck, I'd be happy to hang one on my wall.
Enjoy your evening 🙂

Beautiful craftmanship…

sigh
You know how I feel about belt buckles
May I just add to my previous comment: I have never spent more time refreshing a web browser than I have today in anticipation of those belt buckles appearing. Don't you love anticipation? It's so fun to try to win one of your items: at least it feels like winning to me, in a non-competitive and completely satisfactory way, like your giveaway, which was only a joyous thought even though someone else one. Thanks for spreading the joy with your photos and actions!
I cannot believe I typed "one" instead of "won." How embarrassing.
I hear ya, akamilby. I think I've hit refresh more times today on the Plume shop than I ever have on any other site on any day. I don't want to miss it, but my trigger finger (and my eyes) are getting tired! Ahh, the joys of trying to nab one of Jilli's elusive beauties! It really is fun 🙂
Wow – those belt buckles really showcase your incredible workmanship. They are divine!
Oh gosh ladies! I meant to have the shop updated by now….but the cat dragged something in:) See today's post!
XO
what a clever cat indeed 😉
….I paid that cat well.
I have been in awe of these belt buckles all day! how to get my hands on the phrenite one??
The prehnite buckle is going up on Monday. Hang on tight:)
wow! I am amazed how stunning. Saw what the cat dragged in! Happy for you hope you have a spendid weekend together :o)
