For sale in this auction is 16 pairs of earrings which I have hand beaded yesterday and today. All are a variety of sizes from 1" long to 4" long. These are all in colors mixed and matched nicely in a variety. All are made with size 11 czech seed beads and using size D beading thread. I will provide you with 16 business cards, stating that I guarantee my work (this means all 16 pairs) for one year. I will honor this guarantee to your customers as you resell them as well. I will not need proof that the items are mine, as I can very easily tell what is my work and what is not just by looking. See below for more details on my guarantee of workmanship.

In this auction is 11 pairs of small to medium earrings and 5 pairs of medium-large sized pairs. Feel free to ask for more details or more pictures if you'd like to!

For this lot of earrings, I am starting off the bid at $32. That is only $2 a pair!!! You can't get this quality for this price from anyw else, and as far as I know nobody else guarantees their things for a year.

I am asking $3.50 for the postage, which will include delivery confirmation. This three dollars will also cover my expenses for any packaging materials I need to use. Please note that I combine shipping on my other beadwork auction items, up to five items of beadwork can be shipped for the same postage rate! You could buy five of these lot auctions I have going on and still pay only $3.50.

This lot would be absolutely perfect for someone who would like to try their hand at selling authentic native american beadwork at a good price. I see tons of Japanese or Chinese machine made beadwork on ebay, and it really tears at my heart. I will never be able to set my prices at fifty cents an item, like they do, but what I make is real and genuine and the beadwork is straight and good. You will never find that quality coming out of China! So, consider this lot as your passport to good quality merchandise at a very reasonable price and with a guarantee to boot! See my feedbacks and see what other customers have had to say about my work!

Sorry for the terrible pictures. Seems that no matter what I do I can't seem to find a decent digital camera for a good price. Oh well, I do the best I can! So if you want to see more pictures or more detailed ones feel free to ask!

Now for the introductions!

My name is Amy Boswell. I am a Native American beadwork artist of Cherokee and Choctaw descent. I began beading at age 11, and since I am now thirty years old, this gives me 19 years of beading experience. I am often found traveling the pow wow circuit either as a dancer, supporting my kids and their dancing, spectating, or selling my work as a vendor/artist. I have been honored in the past by being commissioned to do entire head to toe beadwork sets for traditional and fancy men dancers. I have also completed applique and customized work for others. I take great pride in my work, and I greatly enjoy creating these things.

What you see in this auction is only a teeny tiny sampling of my work, but be assured, the same care and devotion went into creating these things just as much as my bigger projects.

Sometimes people ask me why my prices are lower than what others may be asking. I tell them that not all payment comes in monetary form. My asking price is only to cover my time and maybe the materials. The rest of my payment comes from the joy I receive in my heart while creating these beautiful things. Payment also comes when I know that my things are being enjoyed by others. For these reasons, it is with great pleasure that I choose to offer all of my customers a one year, unconditional guarantee on all of my work. If you are not able to wear or use my beadwork, and it sits in a drawer somew, then I am not getting paid, you see? I would rather repair your things for you and know that it serves you well than to think that my work is not being used and enjoyed as intended.

My guarantee means for you that if for any reason your beadwork should become damaged, even if it was the dog...
