Sadly, the Blue Buddha Boutique Instagram account has been suspended! 😭 I’ve written a more detailed post about the suspension on the Rebeca Mojica Jewelry blog.

Luckily the account wasn’t super active, but I am sad to see it go. If you’ve been following me as Blue Buddha on IG, I invite you to either follow the Blue Buddha Boutique page on Facebook, or @rebecamojicajewelry on Instagram. You can also find me on TikTok @officialrebecamojica. I now realize I could lose these accounts at any time, but I’ll just go full steam ahead and hope for the best!

Black & Red Eternal Love Chainmaille Necklace

Get ready for spooky season with this DIY chainmaille project diagram for the cute Eternal Love Necklace. We’ve revived this kit in very limited quantities (and we have focal-only kits as well, in case you’d like to use a different weave or chain).

You’ll need to know Jens Pind 3 and Mobius/Flowers in order to complete the project.

Purchase Eternal Love Necklace kits in the B3 Etsy shop. Or, purchase focal-only kits. (And yep, we do offer the skulls by themselves too)

Happy Halloweaving!

In early April 2024, I’m headed back to Ventura, CA to teach and learn at Craftcation, woo-hoo!

This 5-day event is a crafter’s paradise, with 200+ crafts and business workshops, along with wellness activities and social gatherings, including introvert-friendly activities!

This year I’ll be teaching the beginning level Rosettes Bracelet as well as leading an Elevate Your Etsy Shop Think Tank and a panel about writing and publishing a book.

Just in time for the some of the first snow of the season, kits are now available for an all-white snowflake pendant and earring!

Purchase snowflake kits in the B3 Etsy shop. If you’ve never made this before, you can also purchase the snowflake tutorial in the shop. If you don’t need the full instructions, check out the free project diagram below – it has information on how to combine ring sizes in the earrings to stabilize the weave (otherwise it’ll be pretty floppy). Let me know if you have any questions!

Happy weaving!

Seeking Folks to Test the New B3 Website

UPDATE: Responses are now closed. If you’re selected, you’ll be contacted via the email you provided! There will be several rounds of focus groups in the winter and spring. Thank you!

After years of procraftination, I’m finally tackling the new Blue Buddha Boutique website!

Before I get too deep, I’d like to ask for your feedback – specifically on the kit customization wizard.

If you’ve ordered custom-color kits (or think you might in the future), and you’re interested in previewing the website and offering your feedback, I invite you to take the 8-question survey below to see if you qualify for the upcoming focus group(s). It should take less than 5 minutes to complete. Thank you!
