Ever wondered what goes into creating our jewelry? Below are pictures documenting our manufacturing process for the Blue Dragonfly. Even though we are using custom designed circuit boards made in a factory, the journey into a work of art is a highly labor intensive process that takes many days to complete. This will be one […]
Just in time for valentines day we have white hearts with gold traces in our Etsy store. Choose from a bare necklace, broach or pair of earrings for your geektastic sweetheart. Stay tuned, blinky versions will be posted soon. Robin
