Hip Chick Beads


They came today! They are smaller than I thought they would be but pretty nifty anyway. I enlarged the scan so you can see them. Those of you who know me know that I am a sucker for hearts - especially puffy hearts. I also like swirls. The one with all the holes reminds me of punchinella gone mad! I got the Sisters one in honor of my little sister. Even though I am always thinking of her and she is in my heart, I think I need a comfort item right now.
Here is the link to their site: http://www.hipchickbeads.com/
Don't you think the name should be Hippie Chick? It rolls off the tongue better for me.

Hipchick beads does not have good etiquette or customer service, and can be darn right rude if you mention a competitor or ask for a gram price. If you try and negotiate at all -they responded we can sell you some "cheap Bali silver instead." In one of my orders (first order) they sent me what I call "seconds" where some of the pieces look ill formed. When I wanted to return them, their policy is a re-stocking fee. This is too bad because they do have some clever little designs. Also the turnaround time is slow (while they charge and use Priority -can take up to a week) so I continue to feel indifferent.

I love her things- they are unique, handmade & authentic! They are a bit different than other places because they are truly handcrafted & made to look as such- so what the "anonymous" person said about seconds is probably misconceived. She has been incredibly helpful when I had design questions or concerns- but they take pride in their work so if you want to negotiate your price you might be better off on EBay or garage selling! Every time I wear something I made with her silver pieces I get rave complements. Hippy Chick was taken- so she's just hip :) and I think they are truly.
A happy hip chick customer :)
