SuperScenic Vision Eyewear

CT Scenic and SuperLula have been known to do things together. Many of them include sitting around Tisane. Other activities have involved a bit more creatvity and ambition. Remember this little masterpiece?














(Read all about THAT here!)

After witnessing how beautiful our friends looked in a certain pair of glasses this New Years Eve (also at Tisane), Katie Scenic and SuperLula decided to combine forces and create Hartford's trendiest and blinginest designer eyewear: SUPERSCENIC VISION.





















































Yes, these and other bedazzling works of amazingness will be available for purchase. Actually, we will just give them to you if you promise to wear them in public.

Sad Little Etsy Shop

I know... theres nothing there. Truth be told, I haven't had much success through etsy. Listing items is time consuming and costs money, and sales have not motivated me to spend my time or money maintaining the shop.

So, for now... you're just going to have to come find me in person, or stop by Black Diamond to get the good stuff, got it?

Or, shoot me an email if you have something in mind. I'd be happy to work with you.

I LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING YOU!

Custom Work: Honda in your ears, Centipede around your neck.

One of my favorite things about being a creative little artist, is this: if I want something that doesn't actually exist, aside from in my own head, I can just figure out how to make it. Like the time I made that coat out of pink monster fur (which will be coming back out of the closet in the not-so-distant future). Or the time I made cupcake plugs for my 00g lobes.




















It is for this reason, that I love working on custom pieces. If one of my friends want something that doesn't exist, chances are, I can figure out how to make it. Recently, my services were requested for some unusual projects.

First, my friend Melissa was looking for some matching cupcake jewelry for herself and her daughter, because she calls her daughter "my little cupcake". HOW CUTE.

I came up with chocolate and vanilla cupcakes with rainbow frosting, glitter sprinkles, and a cherry on top. Handmade by me, out of polymer clay.












Strung with swarovski crystals and glass beads.













Melissa had to explain to her daughter that these cupcakes were not for eating, to which she replied. "Ohhhhh. I'll just eat the cherry then."

Then, the fine people at CT Scenic were in need of some "Human Centipede" themed jewelry to give away as a prize during their hilarious promotion of the Hartford premiere of the film.
So, I made this:













What can I say? Its perverse and its awesome. The winner of the drawing was totally psyched.

Next, my friend Chris commissioned me to make a pair of 0g Honda plugs as a gift. I was up for that job. Here is the adorable recipient:














Finally, these 5/8" plugs were a gift I made for my friend Sherry's birthday.











KEEP THE REQUESTS COMING. Clearly, nothing is too bizarre for me, so.....

Custom Earrings for Your Crazy Stretched Earlobes

I've blogged before about how much I dig making large gauge earrings out of polymer clay, so I was delighted to get a custom order for a pair through my Etsy shop. Gina wanted a pair of red and black zebra 1 inch spirals (to match her pants, she said).



























I'm hoping Gina will be kind enough to send along a photo of her wearing them (with aforementioned pants).

She also inquired about plugs, to which I told her I'd never made them before, but I'd give it a go and see how they came out. Here are my very own super sparkle pink and purple 00g plugs.




















I've been wearing them quite a bit this week. They're comfortable in my ears, and have gotten lots of compliments. If anyone is interested in a pair, in any color(s) and size, hit me up @ super_lula@yahoo.com!

And while I was at it, I also made these for myself:

It's Only Natural: Vegan Jewelry and Vegan Food

I am super excited that my jewelry is now on display and available for purchase at It's Only Natural Vegetarian Restaurant, located in Middletown CT. ION has been voted Best Vegetarian Restaurant in the Hartford Advocate reader's poll since 1992, and is one of my longtime favorite spots in the area.

New work in my ETSY shop- Go see!

Hey, LOOK WHAT I MADE!!!
New Rings and Bracelets are filling up my Etsy shop. More to come!
