It’s time for
Marbled March again! The original marble themed sale of March, it maintains most of its features from last year, and not too many differences.
——–What is Marbled March 2017?——-
Semi-custom
orders are available throughout the month. Just choose one color, then
I’ll choose another/other contrasting color(s) and come up with your
marble. I like dynamic, tight marbling but am open to suggestion for
less contrast, loose marbles, or cowprint “mottles”. Generally I opt for
a light and dark, for example, and if you want eye-searingly bright
tones instead I will be happy to work with that! Just let me know.
The year before last showcased my signature “Transitional Marbles,” and last year we took a look at “Painterly Marbles,” and while neither of them have such a significant discount this year they do make a return. This year I’m offering a “Dealer’s Choice” of sorts. Hand me a theme or inspiration (photo or written, whatever) and I will do something with it. These toys will still feature marbles heavily but may also have other work done to them, it’s just that the say in that comes down to me.
——-What else happens this year?——-
Not much. You should know that if you do not see an item available that it has likely been sold and will be making a reappearance only when I have worked through the queue. I cannot give an estimate on when the queue will be through.
On
shipping, I will be making trips when possible. Please keep in mind
that custom orders do take a bit of time and I am quite prone to
recasting based on my perfectionism. Also know that unwell life
situations do continue (yep…) and it may cause slight delays here and there.
Please do not inquire about shipping times until after the timeframe on
your receipt. And don’t order on the 31st and claim you’ve been waiting
3 months on May 1st. Not letting that fly this year either.
I may combine MM orders with other things, however due to the time frame inconsistencies I can’t guarantee that I will.
——-Some things to keep in mind:——-
-Firmnesses are: super soft (0030), soft (0050), medium (approx 8A), and hard (10A)
-Super
Soft has a tendency to blend during pouring, so I cannot guarantee that
the marbles will be very tight or crisp. I will certainly try, but
expect more of a soft/feathered edge on any super soft toys.
-Metallic and glow pigments affect the weight of the silicone, so may also cause issue with colors blending
-Marbled March is only for marbles, I am not offering other color options at this time.
-I will be uploading various pre-mades throughout the month when the new week sets go up.
-Marbled
March listings will have a desaturated promo image at the front of them and
say “Marbled March” in the listing title and in the corner of the image.
-For questions please ask me on Etsy. Oftentimes questions
that only I can answer get posted on unrelated forums, and receive odd
estimations or conjecture that don’t help anyone. I don’t usually bite, please do not be afraid to ask me directly.
-If
an item is not in stock when you check, it is sold out and will not be
getting relisted until I work through its queue. All items have 1
opening to start and I will reset for an additional one later today.
Everything is up now, so hop on over to check it out!
