As always, if you are looking for something that you don't see on the site, contact me and let me know - I have tons of stock that is not yet on the site.
Happy shopping - I'll download some new images to Bhuz, soon. I have several new necklace sets that are G-O-R-G-E-O-U-S!!!!
Siham
Hi all,
Site is up complete with secure shopping cart. ;~D wheee!
Shiny Sparkly Things is all about hard-to-find costume jewelry for stage or special occassions. I'm good and sick of scouring malls for decent costume jewelry, so now I scour trade shows to get it for us all!
Kisses,
Siham

Hi All,
I just got some earrings uploaded last night - lots of red and a couple pretty black ones. I'll keep working at it, adding as quick as I can get pics together.

New Shipments coming in next week ;~D
Hi All,
New shipments coming in next week - merch has been uploaded to website (I'm getting pretty quick at this website stuff!).
Also, I'll be doing a big buying trip near the end of August. If you're looking for something specific, let me know (through the website) what you're looking for and I'll keep an eye out for it.
;~D
Ciao,
Siham

Hi Again,
Okay, here goes... a daunting experiment for a non-techie. Here are copies of my July Newsletter. It's really more of a Picture-letter - I'm not big on writing! Here are a few pics of new merch I've got. Grrr - they didn't come out 8 1/2 X 11, like I was trying, and the font didn't work out too well, but I'll keep working at it.
;~D

Just wanted everyone to know that Siham telephoned me promptly - good communication - followed up with a paypal invoice and extremely fast shipping! Very nice necklace and earring set and super customer service, a terrific transaction!
Good work and Good Luck with your new business!

Aw shucks!  Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts! I really love helping dancers find just the right piece - I'm like a matchmaker, but for dancers and rhinestones!!!

Shiny Sparklies for You from Shiny Sparkly Things!
Hi All,
Here's a batch of big Big BIG Sets for you to look over! They'll be online at http://www.shinysparklythings.com asap.
Also, I'm revising my return policy - I started out with an "all sales final" policy, but just really don't like it. I've changed the policy to a 14 day return policy now, so if you don't like your purchase, or the color isn't just right, you can return it. Whew! That feels much better!
Thanks for checking out the site and referring me to your friends and students.
;~D

I'm planning to carry them, but not until spring or even summer next year.
I'm trying to focus on building my inventory of necklace sets, first.
However, I do have a couple of brooches on hand right now (just 2 or maybe 3) - I make costumes, too, so I'm always keeping an eye out for them, too! I'll get pics of them and send them to you. ;~D

Thank-you, and so nice of you to write!
I'm learning all sort of new things since starting this business - setting up a website, finding suppliers, booking shows, and the latest is trying to learn photography! I've got lots more inventory to shoot and get on the site - hopefully, I'll get better pics for ya'all, soon!
I'm having a blast finding pretty sparklies - hope you all enjoy them!
;~D

Hi, I wonder if you can put the size information to the site. Such as the dimension for the bracelets. I have very small wrists so that info is important for me. Thanks!!

Siham:
Do you have a shipping rate page? I'm looking for Christmas presents.
Azeeza
I found the answer to my question.
Shipping and Handling Charges
We charge exactly what the shipping costs us, so your final total will not be included in your initial online order. We will email you with the final total once your purchase has shipped.
Thanks,
Azeeza
