If you order several items from my Shop, deals they will be packed inside the same gift box to avoid waste. If you are ordering gifts for multiple persons and you do need separate gift boxes, please let me know in the Notes section of your order in the Shopping Cart.

About Shipping:
I ship most orders 1 to 3 days after they are received. Orders ship free in the US via First Class Package Service, but if you need your package sooner, upgrades to Priority Mail or Express Mail can be purchased during Checkout. If you need more certainty, Message me to discuss options for UPS 2-day and Next Day Air. A signature will be required for orders valued over $500. If it's inconvenient to sign for packages at your home address, during checkout you can provide the address of another place where someone will be available to sign - perhaps at your work or the home of a trusted friend.

The Nature of Mother Nature
Almost nothing in nature is completely round, smooth or even, so I avoid making my glass fruit and leaves too perfectly. I put on little splotches and speckles, make them a tidbit lopsided, and add other small imperfection so that each berry or leaf is unique. This makes them look much more real.

Process and Materials:
I create each blueberry bead one at a time via the lampworking process by melting Italian glass rods in the flame of a torch. I wrap the molten glass directly onto the twisted end of a copper wire which becomes the stem. Because the copper stem is embedded inside the glass it can never be pulled free. The points of the flower star on the end of each blueberry have been rounded to prevent them from chipping and so they cannot snag on clothing. No paint is used so the color will never rub, flake or chip off.

Photography:
The photos above are representative of the glass fruit earrings I make in this style. The earrings you receive will be similar to, but not exactly the same as, the ones shown above. There will be some minor variations in the shape, size and color patterns of each berry.
