Your Favorite Whimsical Stamp Jewelry
What's Cookin'?
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How can I purchase some of this ultra-hip jewelry? At our
booth! Check out our show schedule for a place and time near you.

Do you have a brochure or a catalogue? We haven’t yet
discovered an effective way to offer our spontaneous, one-of-a-
kind creations other than for sale at Art Fairs and Festivals. By the
time we could photograph the jewelry and have a brochure
printed, the pieces may be sold. Any good ideas? We welcome
your brilliant comments and questions and do our best to answer in
a (relatively) timely manner.

Do you do custom orders? We have done many custom orders,
but we request that you do not send us your super valuable or
heirloom stamps just in case of a whoopsy.

Are the earrings heavy? They are much lighter than they look. I
have tiny, extremely sensitive earlobes, so the earrings are
specifically designed to be lightweight. But everyone’s definition of
“heavy” and “light” is different, so ultimately, only you can make
that decision.
You mean you wear one on one ear and one on the other? The answer Yes applies to
both the asymmetrical style of earrings as well as the twin pairs. We like to think the
asymmetrical earrings match - they’re just not identical.

What are the ear wires made of? Most importantly, the ear wires contain no nickel, which is
what the majority of people are allergic to. That said, the wires are “hypo-allergenic, surgical
stainless steel.” We also have sterling silver and gold-fill options available.

What if I don’t have pierced ears? We have been known to convert ear wires to comfortable
clip-ons.   

Do you have a certain piece in another color? It’s possible, but I wouldn’t hold my breath.
But please ask and we’ll let you know.

Do you have a shop somewhere? We create from our studio and then take our show on the
road to sell at Art Fairs and Festivals around the Pacific Northwest (see Show Schedule). We
consider the booth our Nomadic Gallery.

Do you use real postage stamps? Yes, we use the genuine article and have been collecting
stamps since 1983.   

Where do you get your stamps? As with any collectible, there is no one place. Before e-mail,
it was easy to save stamps from both international and domestic mail. Now people don’t write
to each other as often, so stamp collecting is more difficult and stamps are increasing in value.
Each stamp we use is purposely selected for their country of origin, the topic (animals, flowers,
etc.) or their striking color and artwork.

Do you use cancelled stamps? Yes, we use stamps with either light cancellations or
cancellations off to the side so the main image is still clear. We also use mint stamps.

Where do you get your beads and charms? We’ve built up our collection of beads and
charms over the last 17 years, supporting local Bead Stores in the towns we travel to and
through.

What are the charms made from? It’s a veritable metal smorgasbord. We use everything
from sterling silver, pewter, brass, bronze, mixed-metals, base-metal, plated metal, gold and
sometimes all in one piece!
