Fairy Finds # 2 EBAY (67.8% OFF - PEARL CAT EARS)

Firstly, I apologize for the lack of posts but I have had some personal things come up which exhausted me. HOWEVER ~ that is all done now so I can continue to devote my life to thrifty finds and helping you guys out. On to more important news:

(Supposed to be posted Thursday 27th 2012, but was held up due to my lack of picture taking until today. Any new comments will be posted in in bold his pink.)

GENTLE LADIES AND GENTLE MEN !! HONG KONG HAS BEEN HOLDING OUT ON ME!! Okay this actually isn't too dramatic. I just opened by teeny tiny mailbox to find a ton of packages crammed in there along with a few magazines and random election mail. (Mostly all about what measures people think I should and should not vote "yes" on.) So this will be a MASSIVE eBay haul post.

I know, I know, some of you have yet to warm up to eBay but you can still see the cute things I got. Maybe you know someplace else that sells them cheaper or perhaps you just like cute things.

I am just going to go down the list in the order of most recent purchase to least recent. So the further down the item the longer it took to arrive.

First things first: MY GLUE GUN ARRIVED. It's nothing fancy, I just wanted something that would fit the glue sticks I currently have. I use the glue gun for minor repairs to things because super glue makes more of a  mess for me. Unless I put on gloves I manage to get residue on my fingers and they stick together. > <;; SO ~ Hot Glue it is. The gun is available for purchase there from shopfuosv for $8.49 USD (once you include US shipping and handling). I kind of want to paint it pink and white but I am not sure what kind of paint I should use since it does get so hot. Anyone know?

So you might be able to tell that I have used it and I must say it works REALLY WELL. Seeing the price of some other glue guns online I became skeptical but I really love this gun. I would have spent less on it but I needed one to fit the gluesticks I already had. Haha. 

This is the expensive part of this haul however it was also inexpensive when you compare the prices to other companies. I adore buying little rement phone charms and key chains. Why? They are so easy to convert into necklaces. Plus I felt even better knowing lots of girls on esty sell these items (or ones similar too) for really high prices. Fan21_hk sells re-ments on eBay and it's my favorite re-ment seller because they offer fairly nice combine shipping details. Shipping for the package was $16 USD, which may see high to those of you who have never ordered a big box of re-ments online before but it was actually a pretty good deal. (You must send a message to this seller requesting combine shipping. You add the items to your cart and when you go to pay you check the box to request an invoice from the user. All of the items appear as "free shipping" in your purchase history and you pay the combine shipping amount when checking out - which eBay adds to your total automatically.) I'll like you guys to what items they still have up.

I bought a Scrump Ice Cream Pen, although you could never tell it's a pen since the cone aligns PERFECTLY. I adore Lilo at Stitch so for $1.99 USD I fell in love! I am always looking for Scrump items so this is a good find.

The Rilakkuma Pastel Blue Ice Cream Pen was more expensive at $3.99 USD. He is a more popular character and you are buying the San-X brand along with it since the company that makes the ice cream pens has to pay for the right to use him. I was tempted to buy him in strawberry too but at the time of purchase I chose not to...I forget why.

Next I got a set of three Hello Kitty Bunny Ice Cream Pens meaning I got the full collection ~~ I adore them and each is a little different. Sanrio is generally less expensive than San-X so at $8.00 USD for three I was spending about $2.66 USD on each.

Congratz you guys get to see my bandaid. FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO READ MY OLD BLOG: I know, my nails are never so short. BUT ~ they got brittle because I got lazy so I am working on a post to show people how to grow out their nails super fast and super strong. This requires short nails so I cut all of mine down super short. I have a bad hangnail on my thumb so I found a random decorated bandaid to stick on it once I got out of the shower this morning.

Next I got this adorable Alice In Wonderland "EAT ME" Cookie Charm for $6.50 USD. This was definitely a splurge but to me it is simple math: re-met + Alice in Wonderland + Cookie + easy to convert into jewelry = one very happy fairy! In the collection there is also a Cheshire Cat Macaroon charm but I haven't been able to find it. My fingers are crossed ~~ The rest of the collection is cute but I wouldn't pay so much for it. The detail is actually pretty amazing. One of the edges looks like someone broke off a piece. Upon looking you see Alice with the broken crumb in her hand, lifting her other hand high into the air to measure how much taller she wants to become. Too cute !! Yet I can't say I was thrifty here.

If I keep going one of the last few was this Mrs. Bunny Disney Donut Charm for $1.99 USD. I love the whole collection but I decided that this one I would get the most use out of. I actually thought at first this was Lola from Looney Toons but then when I was reading the packaging I realized it was Miss Bunny, from Bambi. Haha ~ I adore Thumper so realizing this was Miss Bunny was not a problem for me.

The last item was a Hello Kitty Cake Charm for $1.50 USD. Now you might notice there are two items in the above picture. That was because one was a free gift sent by the user! How nice, right?! I actually fell in love with the gift more than I fell in love with the one I purchased. Funny how life works that way sometimes, right? Anyway the little spongey yellow cake was the item I ordered in case you didn't look at the eBay link yet. The item that resembles a Choco-Pie (those who go to Asian markets will know what I am talking about. It's two graham cracker-esque cookies covered in chocolate with marshmallow creme in between and they are amazing~~) was the gift. I love how her face is oozing out haha, it makes me laugh and smile looking at it. I simply adore items that make me smile so much. The piece is actually really high quality and two separate pieces rather than just a section painted white.

Last note about the seller. EVERYTHING is sent with it's original packaging. Yes they are carefully cut open just enough so that they can pull the items out since a lot of these come in a blind box.  Not only does the box arrive but anything else that the original company put inside such as the chart that shows you all of the possibilities to little pieces of square gum. (I already ate the two I received. One was green apple and the other was coconut. YUM!)

This item actually arrive three days ago but I wanted to re-glue the pearls on that were coming off. (Only two). This would look cute with a fairy kei outfit and depending on who you talk to this would be adorable on an OTT Sweet Lolita. I would cover the silver band with a big hairbow and just have the pearl ears sticking out. It was $6.44 USD and for an item that is trending in Japan it is totally worth it. It is available here. Normally it sells for around $20.00 USD so that is a savings of 67.8% off!! Told you I was good at finding things ;D (I must be a Huffelpuff. Pottermore sorted me into the wrong house then.)

Okay so the shape of them looks a little strange when they are not pictured on a head. I noticed this since I got them but was in such a rush taking pictures I didn't even think about it. Ahaha ~

Pastel Pom Pom Scrunchie  - $1.59 USD when shipping is included. What a find for fairy kei!! Use correctly it would be cute in OTT Sweet Lolita too. It is cute and the price is reasonably cheap. (IDK why my camera flips certain pictures on it's own.)

I love Sally's Beauty Supplies and a lot of local drugstores but sometimes the hair items can be expensive there! So I turned to eBay to buy some hairbands. $1.79 USD from here for 300 pieces. I bought them in black and in the pretty pastel.

They did arrive in the packaging as pictured but I had already used them by the time I took these pictures...which my camera somehow flipped these upside down haha ~~ Surprisingly these are super durable! I have really thick (and long!) hair so I can say that these are really nice and not super flimsy. I noticed that I accidently got two extra packages. I thought that each package might be 150pcs but counting I got 600 black and 600 pastel. I only ordered (and paid for) 300 of both colors. I am not sure if the extra two were a free gift or a mix up. So I am happy that I saved 50% in the long run haha.

This is such a cute crystal bowknot hair pin for $1.39 USD. It's cheaper than what it would be at Forever21 or Claires but still the same quality. I thought this would be fun for work but I could still see it used in OTT Sweet & Fairy Kei.

OH. MY. GOODNESS. I wore this in my hair yesterday (Saturday) to work. A mother and her adorable daughter come in and while the mother is trying on clothes the girl is very animatedly chatting to me. She kept complimenting me "I like your earrings, I like your bow ring (the crystal hearts and the black bow ring in my first Ebay Finds), I like your bow ~" and she said I looked like a princess TT u TT ~~ TEARS OF JOY ~~ Not sure how I looked like a princess while wearing a suit jacket but I still felt so happy hearing such words from a little girl. She was really kind and her mother (equally as nice) told me "She really likes you haha ~~" so that was definitely the highlight of my day. Do you guys have any little items that make you feel like a princess?

Do not let the eBay users photoshop fool you into thinking this is a huge crown, hence why it is photographed on my site with a coin. For $0.99 USD this is what you get. If you are into Hime Gyaru or the "Hime Lolita" style...which I don't think is recognized as an actual style yet...THEN THIS IS AN ITEM FOR YOU. Now you can wear a tiara without looking like a five year old !! People will finally start saying "That tiara is so cute ! ~~ " instead of "What children's birthday party did you come from?" Here is the dream item for $0.99 USD. Now I can subtly be a princess even when I am working.

NOT PICTURED (because my sister is wearing it today and isn't home). $2.05 USD when I add in the shipping for this bow which is totally reasonable. I could use it for work and I love bows. It's not a super nice brand and I wouldn't recommend it for Lolita. However if you are into Fairy Kei and are tired of all of the pastel hairbows Spank! has been putting out and want to go with something black to match some of the other items then it is totally acceptable.

NOT PICTURED: OPAQUE RAINBOW BEADS (because I have put them up in my closet with my other beads and I can't find the step stool ; ~ ; ). I won two bid items that I bid on because they were cheap and I knew I could make something out of them. These were won at $0.99 USD and their opaque twin was won at $1.04 USD. I can't guarentee the price but these are fairly unpopular on eBay and I see them come up often. I am thinking Rainbow Brite jewelry for these! Have any other suggestions for what I should do with these beads? Let me know!!

I SPENT 11 CENTS ON THIS. $0.11 USD. Yet it is so cute! I just magically won it in a bid and it is so cute!! (I cannot say "cute" enjoy to describe this item.) Not everything I buy is either pastel or black. Look at this bold red! (Or the bold rainbow beads above.) I think I may hang onto it for a while and place it on my desk with my other cute things but I might give this out as a gift. (Giveaway anyone?)

I have an affinity for coin purses, kind of like how I obsess over drawstring bags. I don't know why, I just do. Eeyore has always been one of my favorites. So $0.68 winning bid on this coin purse was perfect! I really do have bringing up bid items because it's online shopping that I can't guarantee a price from but I can't guarantee what I find in thrift stores will be found in yours nor can I guarantee most things bought from the EGL Livejournal either.

I bought the Red Heart earrings with a Pearl Crown for $0.85 USD. I would like to see someone beat that price with something from Forever21. (Although F21 gets a lot of business from me...)

These were $0.99 USD found here. I purchased these because I could always use earrings for work. I don't think these will excite you guys too much but for those curious cookies there they are.

So where do you guys find your cheapest fairy or lolita finds? What is your favorite find so far? What is your favorite find out of this haul? Do you have any little things you like to wear that make you feel like a princess? I want to paint my hot glue gun pink and white, do you guys know what kind of paint I can use?

Lolita Letters: Posh Pen Pals

I have always adored sending handwritten letters on cute stationary with little surprises (stickers, nail stickers, packets of glitter, paper dolls, lightweight jewelry etc) tucked inside. I am fortunate enough to have several Japanese Pen Pals, Natsumi (whom I have not exchanged letters with in a while to be perfectly honest), Yuuki, and Hiko. I write my letter first in Japanese on the front side of the stationery and then I write my letter again with the English translation. Yuuki and Hiko do the same thing where as with Natsumi and I the way we write our letters with a mix of English and Japanese goes back and forth.

After it had been a few weeks since my latest letters to them I wondered how much fun it would be to have letters that arrive much faster than theirs. I hunted online for pen pal exchanges for several weeks and found lots of websites but they all produced low results. It wasn't until I found Lolita Letters that my dreams were answered. The livejournal has dedicated the ENTIRE journal to finding pen pals that are Lolitas (and many of the girls also adore fairy kei!!)  Girls from all around the world are requesting pen pals! The States, England, Italy, and so the list of countries go on! This is so amazing because it helps you get over the big barrier of trying to find something in common. YOU BOTH LOVE LOLITA or perhaps fairy kei.

So I HAD to respond to a several adds and by several I mean every add where I met the requirements that had been posted within the last four months. I also put up my own add and have acquired several responses. Yesterday I received two letters in the mail that inspired me to talk about this website and sending letters in general. Below is a picture of the letters with the confidential information blurred.


When these arrived in my mail box I smiled with delight as if I had finally gotten a long lost parcel in the mail. (My massive order of cute earbuds YOU WILL ARRIVE SOME DAY ~~ TT ^ TT Although the seller did refund me since it is taking over 35 days.) I hurried inside and opened the letters only to be as thrilled as I had been by their mere outer appearance.  LOOK AT HOW CUTE THESE ARE!!

One of the senders whom I shall refer to as Posy (since it is her lolita nickname) didn't use cute stationary. It was a plain white envelope and paper. Yet with the magic of a few colored pens she had created a one-of-a-kind personalized envelope and stationary. So for those of you who are timid to start sending letters just because you don't have a stationary set please do not be afraid. Sending letters is more about the content than what it is written on. 

So I wrote replies to both letters. Posy wrote a wonderfully long letter so I had a lot to comment upon. I used 18 pieces of stationary for the reply!! However that is due to my huge handwriting and the fact that the design of a lot of the sheets takes up a lot of space and I try to avoid writing over the top of the pretty pictures. I am so lucky that Posy lives only and hour or so away from me so hopefully we can run into each other in the future for lolita meet ups. I won't share the content of the letter because I don't want to embarrass her. ^^;; Below is what I tucked into my letter for Posy. First I stuck in my letter since it was very bulky and took up a lot of space. Next I stuck in two other pieces of stationery goodies that come when you buy big packs from Japan. One is just a small booklet in which I wrote the name of this blog so Posy could check it out for fun since she is building her lolita wardrobe and I thought this blog could be helpful to her. ^^ <3 Next I stuck in another goodie that has a beautiful picture of a carnival. (Both goodies are a part of the Funny Park collection which is what I wrote part of the letter on.) Lastly I stuck in giant bunny stickers! It also has strawberries, hearts, and more bunnies.

I also added special things into the other letter that I sent out. The female will remain unnamed unless she comes to my blog and mentions in her next letter that using her name is fine. So for now I will just refer to this kindhearted girl as an ambiguous "she". Her letter featured both Little Twin Star and Pretty Ice since she is so into Fairy Kei and Lolita. I stuck in an origami ice cream (which came from a large stationery set), a cutesy small memo note that links to this blog, cute bear & strawberry stickers and Hello Kitty & Mimi paper dolls.

I know that the goodies weren't anything extra special this time around but I enjoy giving people gifts and spreading smiles.  I am so lucky to have to girls very near my age (one is 17, I am 18, and one is 19) that love lolita culture as much as I do. Both of them wrote very sweet letters and have darling personalities. If you are looking for lolita pen pals I suggest taking a look at the website because everyone there is very nice (that I have come across so far).

I am curious to know how many of the readers are pen pals. If you have a pen pal are they too a lolita or fairy? Is your pen pal from another country? Have you ever met your pen pal in real life? Have you ever sent gifts to a pen pal and if so what did you send? Have you ever received anything special in a letter from a pen pal? What is your favorite letter that you have ever received from someone, did it contain cute stationary, a touching story, or an awesome gift? If you don't have a pen pal you can always list what you would like in a pen pal or what you would love to send and receive.

Have fun and happy writing ~ ~

TIP # 1: The Money Jar

If you have been interested in Lolita for a while you will understand that descending into the style is expensive. Brands do not come cheap especially when shipping charges are added to the total cost. Some Lolitas think Brand is the only way to be a "true Lolita" whilst others think straying away from brands and coming up with original coords is still embracing Lolita. No matter which side of the debate you support, both ways come with a heavy cost to your wallet.

The best tip I can offer for anyone looking to join the community or old community members looking to save for their next item is to get a money bank. Some girls prefer the classic "piggy bank" while others decorate an old soup can. The best thing I can suggest is that you find a place to put your spare change that makes you smile. I used to be terrible with budgeting, and I will admit that I still fall victim to a spontaneous splurge because "it was just so cute," but having a place that I looked forward to placing any spare change I had on me really really helped.

I know the thought of a money bank seems old fashion, especially with debit cards and credit cards. (I usually run around with my debit card and rarely have spare cash on me.) However getting into a habit of withdrawing a little cash every once and a while and placing the change away is a healthy habit to start. You would be surprised by how much you can save up.

THE IMPORTANCE OF YOUR OWN DESIGN

This is my money bank. I labeled it "Rainy Day Fund" because I don't always use it to fund my Lolita and Fairy Kei obsession. Sometimes I use it to see a movie with a friend or go out for Baskin and Robbins Tuesday Ice Cream Deal. (Does it date me by saying that I remember One Scoop for One Dollar Tuesdays at B&R?) Now I look back thinking that calling it a "Rainy Day Fund" is rather silly because almost every day in Oregon is a rainy day. 

Admittedly it's not that cute. Pink deco tape with a makeup print, a hello kitty memo pad, a hot pink pen, and some ribbon and stickers created this jar. Now I could have gotten fancy and used wrapping paper, lace, hot glued rhinestones, glitter, flimo designs, fabric paint, and so the list goes on. I just made it cute enough that I smile when I see it and drop my change inside. 

I think personalizing your own bank better motivates you to place your change inside. If you can become excited about how cute your bank looks than I think it helps you want to place your change inside when you have it on hand. It's similar to the feeling when I see a Santa Claus ringing a bell with a red bucket asking for spare change for the Salvation Army (something we see in the States very often at Christmastime.) My sister and I used to always beg our parents for spare change to drop the coins in the shiny red bucket. Because these people and the shiny red bucket got us excited when we were young, my sister and I always wanted to give them our spare change (upon both entering and exiting the stores).

THE REASON WHY YOU SPENT HOURS PAINTING A JAR

So now that you have a place for your change that you think is adorable you need to focus on actually putting money inside of it. If you are young and live with your family then place spare change from spending your allowance. Ask your parents if you can have all of the change that falls underneath the seat cushions in the couch. Or perhaps your mother will let you have all of the coins found inside pant pockets when she does the laundry. Alternatively, become excited when you see Santa Claus ringing his bell asking for Salvation Army donations. Beg your parents for change since it is such a good cause. Place some of the change into the shiny red bucket but keep some of the change and pocket it to place in your bank. If your parents catch you remind them that you are a good cause too.

If you live on your own it becomes a little less rewarding if you look under the couch cushions to find your own change. (Although it's a good idea to check under there every once and a while. I have found many of my DS styluses and hair pins suffocating under there.) However, if you live on your own chances are that you carry cash on you every so often because not every place takes credit and debit cards.  This results in spare change since there are very few times that transactions leave you with an even number. Instead of counting out pennies to a cashier (that is clearly getting nervous about counting the ridiculous amount of change you are about to hand over since you don't want change back) SAVE YOUR CHANGE FOR YOUR JAR. Unless you have used all of your bills, don't spend your time counting out change to pay for your item(s). Use bills because it will result in more change for you to place away.

EXTRA TIPS

1) Location, location, lolication. Place the jar somewhere you will actually see it and in a place where it is convenient for you. For a while I had mine by the front door so I could drop my change off when I came in but I soon found it was a poor spot for me. I rarely stopped to take my shoes off and empty my purse right inside the door. Plus my sister often enjoyed trying to snag a few coins for the jar she started. Then it was in my bedroom on my nightstand and now it has worked it's way to my desk. Whenever I switch purses, lose something in my purse, or freak out because I misplaced my phone, all of the contents of my purse are emptied onto my desk. I figured it was the best place for me to have my coin bank. If you look above you can see her new home where she can happily chat to all of my wonderful friends I have sitting around. 

2) Don't count your change every day. Better yet, don't count your change every week. I noticed the more I counted my change the more likely I was to feel disappointed that I wasn't saving up fast enough. I always felt more accomplished when I checked a month later and have saved up a large sum more so than when I checked it every day to track how much I saved. Plus you won't be saving the same amount every day. Sometimes you do a lot of shopping and therefore you have more to place in the jar where as some days you might have done little to no shopping and don't have anything to place inside. 

3) Place one dollar in your jar every week. I know it sounds silly since a dollar a week only ears $52.00 a YEAR. However this can help you feel like you are saving up rapidly and can encourage further savings. So many people start saving and then give up because it is such a little amount. Yet if you put in a dollar it takes up a lot of space until it gets crushed by coins. Forming a habit to keep a money bank revolves around staying motivated and good progress may just help you do this.

If you cannot afford one dollar per week then do one dollar per month or one dollar every paydal. Perhaps you can budget putting in a dollar a day! Some people put in five dollars each month. Do whatever works for you and your budget. 

If you have your own money bank or create one after reading it yourself I would LOVE to see pictures. Perhaps all of you will make me want to redecorate my jar!! ^^ <3

Fairy Finds #1: EBAY ~

I love to go to thrift stores, consignment shops, flea markets, and garage sales. Yet sometimes I am so busy that it becomes difficult to get out of the house to go shopping what with work, dance classes, and my obsession with Tumblr. Hence why I adore doing online shopping. Admittedly shopping online can be extremely dangerous but with websites like paypal you don't need to publish your credit or debit card information online.

LOTS of people are still cautious about eBay, and I don't blame them however when used wisely eBay is a wonderful site to gain great deals. I know taobao is wildly popular in the J-Fashion community but it can be difficult to navigate. After using both websites I honestly prefer eBay for smaller items and accessories. Used correctly the prices are the same and eBay is in English (and is also adaptable for lots of other languages). I know Hong Kong has a bad rap on eBay, more specially China in general. Yet China has some of the best deals out of everyone and  you often get the same quality of items that you would get from a US seller. I am all up for saving money so that is why I love eBay so much. Granted, it is more difficult to find Brands on this website it is still a great tool for the little things.

eBay has come a long way in the past few years to eliminate scams. You can read all about their feedback and the importance of feedback on their website here. Honestly, I have almost always received my items. On the rare occasion that an item has not arrived I have contacted the seller and ALWAYS received a refund. If you look for sellers with high star ratings and low negative feedback then you are in the safe zone to buy from the seller.

I bought a ton of item from one of my favorite sellers abuyone. They often have SUPER cute jewelry that is nice quality for very low prices. (Lower than their fellow sellers offering the same things.) I bought the items August 27th and they arrived September 12th which is pretty fast shipping for Hong Kong (and I just bought with regular free shipping).

First item were these earrings which are still available here for $1.18 USD. This was the most expensive item I bought (in ratio of cost per item). In truth one of the heart crystals is a little crooked but once my new hot glue gun comes in then I can fix that. I will probably wear them anyways because once they are on it's difficult to see that one is crooked when they are against my hair. I think these are so sweet! They are work appropriate (for me) and I could still wear them with Fairy Kei and Sweet Lolita. Considering places like Forever21, ForLove 21, and Claires often ask more for their earrings I think this was a PERFECT find.

The next item I bought is this blue daisy ring for $0.99 USD. It is still available here. The only thing I regret is not buying one in ALL of the colors. The ring is so sweet and it is adjustable so it fits comfortably on all of my fingers. (And I am a ring size 8. . .I know I know large fingers haha ~) This can easily be worn with Fairy Kei (even though it isn't your typical heart, star, or spaceship) and it could work with a lot of Sweet Loli coord. Yes you can bet I WILL be going back to buy the other four colors.

These earrings I bought for work since we have to stick to black, white, and grey. It was relisted from the seller here so you can still get the item too! I thought these were stylish polymer clay earrings so I picked them up. I know they aren't really Fairy Kei or Sweet Lolita (Gothic could probably get away with them ~) but I am including them in the post since they are pretty and a part of the jewelry haul. $0.99 USD.

This item also does not fit in with Sweet or Fairy Kei but I have earrings that match PERFECTLY with the ring. I had purchased matching earrings a while back for work and when I saw the ring I simply HAD to have it. I may wear them together if I am in a hurry to get ready for work but I will more than likely wear them at different times. I just loved the earrings so much I wanted to get the matching ring. For the price of  $0.99 USD it was more than worth it!! Available here.

I intended to buy this for work but I believe that with the right Sweet outfit it could work for Sweet and even for Classical. I ADORE pearls and I think bows are too cute so I picked these but which are still available for purchase here. $0.99 USD.

For $0.99 USD I thought these were a good find. They fit my PINKY FINGER but are still cute to wear for casual lolita or even for fairy. I would guess that these are about a size 6. I bought the bow and mushroom but if you look through their page they have lots of two ring sets in various designs. Found here.

Last item was TWO sets of six each costing $1.59 USD averaging at $0.26 USD per earring pair. These work SO WELL with Fairy Kei and a few of the colors could fit in really well with OTT Sweet Lolita. I bought them here in both the hearts and in the stars. I arrived them and was overjoyed because they are really glossy and look like gummy candies. If I didn't know any better I would think these are Japanese sweets! These are my favorites of the entire haul.

Random items I also received from various sellers in the past couple of days. A Dolphin Phone Charm for $0.99 USD in pink. I might buy more of these so I can get other colors since he is soooo cute~ Angel Wing Pearl Earrings again for the special price of $0.99 USD. These are so cute and can fit into a lot of styles. I wore these the day I got them and received so many compliments and people wanted to know where I got them. Mickey Mouse Cookie & Cake Brooches for a shocking price of $0.99 USD. They look much more expensive but are still super cute. From the same seller I got Strawberry Hair Ties and Strawberry Hair Clips both at $0.99 USD. One of the clips broke when I tried taking it off (the grip on the clip was so strong!!) but I can easily fix it once my new hot glue gun comes in.

I want to know if anyone else has found anything on eBay and what they have bought there!! No need to post pictures or long paragraphs if you don't want to. I adore hearing about other peoples finds!
