12 for 12




A Dozen for December (12 for 12)



Get at least 12 cupcake pendants
for P250 each.

Assorted flavors.
All regular-sized.
All pendants will come gift-boxed.

Accepting orders only until September 30, 2008.


Get your orders in early, my powers are limited. hehe.

Assorted flavors meaning I choose what goes into your package. But you can tell me what colors you prefer, and I will make approximations. Rest assured, everything will be super cute.

We accept BPI deposit, Gcash transfer, Paypal, and Credit Card payments.

How to order:
1. Send me an email (angelisartbeads@gmail.com) with your Full Name, Multiply ID, Complete Address, Mobile Number, and list of preferred flavors/colors.
2. I will reply with an invoice and payment details.
3. Send the payment through BPI or Gcash, or pay through Paypal or Credit Card.
4. Your orders will be shipped 4 weeks after payment is received.

FAQ's:
1. Why do you (Angeli) get to choose the flavors for me?
Please give me some artistic freedom, I really do not like making bulk orders. So giving me the freedom to create flavors is a good compromise for you and me. I get to play with the combinations, and you get a bulk-order discount. :)

2. Why the sudden sale?
I want to take a really loooong vacation so I can be with my family this October, then get on with playing with my new material the following months. I want to release new stuff by January next year. And this is not sudden, it was planned a month ago.

3. Can you please add a chain?
You have two choices for the chain:
a. Add P50 per chain for the USA-made ballchain. 28 to 30 inches long.
b. Add P150 per chain for the sterling silver chain. 16 inches long.

4. I want to avail of this promo, but I haven't saved up yet...
I don't normally do this, but for this promo, I accept "2-gives"! Hahaha. Pay 50% by September 30. Then pay the remaining 50% by October 18. Ship out will be on the week of Oct. 20. I'll be on vacation na after that. Yey!

5. How much is the shipping?
Still the same, even for 12 boxes. :) P75 Luzon, P85 Visayas, P95 Mindanao.

6. Isip pa ako ng FAQ, hehe.

A Christmas Announcement

Happy Monday!

A Christmas announcement:

I have decided. 

I'm going on vacation really early (for my bi-annual trip back home), and I'm trying to get three months off so I can start working with the new materials I ordered January this year (i'm itching to start hardcore jewelry work!).

So what better way to get those Christmas orders in early than hold a big holiday sale?

Big thanks to the writer!

Angeli's Art Beads for Smart Parenting




A few months ago, I was asked to write/style a DIY article for Smart Parenting mag. It was such a fun and crazy shoot, what with three super hyper kids, and uber fun DIY projects! And here it is at last!

Here are snapshots of the feature. The article's about pretend-play activities you can easily do at home. It's filled with crafty projects and DIY stuff.

Please see page 40 of SP's September issue for a full-page DIY polymer clay project you can do with your kids.

Request from a busy bee

It's been a crazy, crazy, couple of weeks, and I can't seem to keep up with all the to-do's.  The past weeks have been really busy, what with the sudden surge in inquiries and requests.

To everyone who has pm'd, emailed, and inquired, please give me some time to get back on track.  I don't think I'll have the time to answer multiply inquiries and comments one by one, so I'll post another series of FAQs soon.

I have a bit of a backlog of orders right now, because everyone seems to want new cupcakes! (No complaint here, hehe).  But my fingers are swollen from all the kneading and molding.

Plus there's no one to take care of shipping (ie making of boxes), and I have more than 10 orders to ship out (that's more than 30 boxes) this week.  As you know, everything at Angeli's Art Beads is handmade.  Even the special boxes!

This is driving me nuts. I am making cupcakes and boxes as quick as I can.  So please hang in there!

Photoshoot for a magazine

Start:     Sep 16, '08
Makeup tips anyone? I still don't know how to put makeup on, and it's DIY for me, they're not bringing a stylist. huhu.

Portfolio: Gallery of my old work




I came across my old files a few months ago - pictures of the stuff I've been making since I started beading. Some of my students were curious, and wanted to see my old work, so I'm trying to catalog them here.

If you've bought an item from my GT and ebay days, I hope you can send me a pic. :) Please help! I'm still trying to search for pics. My old PictureTrail account's been deleted because of inactivity, sayang!

I've noticed, almost all of my past works are blue. And the photography's kadiri! I didn't own a camera, so I scanned my work through a computer scanner, ang hirap!

Bigger, better, clay roses




We came out with tiny rose rings and colorful rose cuffs. Now here are bigger roses to adorn your neck.

These roses are completely handmade. No cutters or molds were used, each petal was individually molded by hand.

Nagsugat fingers ko kakagawa, huhu.

The ones pictured here are 1-inch pendants that hang on a 16-inch sterling silver chain. (Photos taken at the Rockwell Urban Bazaar by Achie Joyce of BBB)

Want one for yourself? Please visit the Global Pinoy Bazaar this weekend, our items will be at the Baubles, Bangles n Beads booth.

Pinoy Woodstock

Start:     Sep 19, '08 4:30p
End:     Sep 19, '08 11:00p
Location:     Cervini Field, Ateneo de Manila University
Woodstock is a major event of the Ateneo Musician’s Pool ((aMp)) which aims to promote the Filipino youth talent in music, film, art and merchandise.

It is a fair where people can rock to the bands performing on stage, watch a short film about the Filipino culture in between sets, eat and drink classic Filipino delicacies and street foods, shop for necessities and whims in the night bazaar, and observe the diverse art exhibitions.

It is one whole get-together of artists of different media and styles, and the audience who patronize their art. But most importantly, it is a celebration of the Filipino and his colorful culture.
