Peepstock 2007 Nerak Beads - Now Available



PEEPSTOCK 2007 Nerak Beads

Right after the voting was finally over the done on which colors would be the ones used in the Peepstock 2007 Nerak beads, the monkeys got to work....

Peepstock 2007 – Necklace (32") (standard beads)


Peepstock 2007 – Petite Necklace (29")(lettered beads on standard beads with remainder of necklace in petite beads)


Peepstock 2007 – Medium Bracelet (8") (photo is of standard beads but also available w/petite beads)


Peepstock 2007 – Small Bracelet (7.25") (photo is of standard beads but also available w/petite beads)


Peepstock 2007 – Anklet (photo is of standard beads but also available w/petite beads)

Bead colors are Xmas Red, Yellow, Black, Xmas Green, and of course, the “magic” Glow-in-the-Dark (off-white in daylight). In keeping with the “Woodstock” theme, peace and love beads are included in each Peepstock 2007 jewelry item. The hand-done beads, including the peace sign and heart, are brushed with three coats of polyacrylic. The beads are all "free-spinnin'" (i.e. not glued together). If the item is classified as a “petite bead” item, the lettered beads are Standard size (9mm), with the remainder of the beads being Petite size (7mm).

(NOTE: I recommend not exposing them to water for lengthy periods, as the poly WILL degrade if left wet for a long time, and as I learned during our recent trip to Playa, do NOT expose the hand-lettered beads to sunblock, as the sunblock WILL eat through the poly quickly and cause the lettering/designs to smear - probably best to reserve these beads for evening adornment).

Construction:
~Necklaces are strung on hand-tied hemp cord.
~Bracelets are strung on polymer cording which is knotted and secured with crimp beads and allow enough stretch to roll the bracelet up over the hand.
~Anklets are strung on polymer cording and have a metal lobster claw clasp.


Pricing:
Necklace (Standard Beads): $10.00 (32” long)
Necklace (Petite Beads): $10.00 (29” long)
Bracelet (Standard Beads): $8.00 (Small=7.25"; Medium=8"; Large=9”)
Bracelet (Petite Beads): $8.00 (Small=Approx. 6 ½”; Medium=7 ½”)
Anklet (Standard Beads): $9.00 (10")
Anklet (Petite Beads): $9.00 (10”)


You are welcome to request your own color combos for any Nerak item, whether with lettering or not. Simply PM me for a price quote (pricing dependent on the number of lettered beads involved in your design). Here are the colors available, both in standard and petite beads:

Xmas Green, Xmas Red, White, Bright Yellow, Royal Blue, Turquoise Blue, Bright Orange, Hot Pink, Coral, Deep Purple, Medium Brown, Jet Black, Teal Pearl, Baby Blue, Lime Green, Light Pink Pearl, Red Pearl, Black Pearl, Glow-in-the-Dark(off-white in daylight)


AND…. Keep in mind….. for every Nerak item sold (whether Peepstock 2007, Peep Fest 007, Classic, or I Love Playa), I will donate $1.00 per item to Angel Notion, a wonderful charity in Playa.

If you have any questions or would like to order, just drop me a PM with what you want.

Don't forget to tell me:

1. What style of Nerak beads you want (“Peepstock 2007”, “Peep Fest 007”, "Classic" or "I Love Playa")
2. What sizes you want (if ordering bracelets)
3. Your full name and address
4. WHEN you're leaving for Playa so I can make sure to get these to you in time!!! This is important so I can fill orders according to everyone's plans.
5. Your e-mail address - This is handy for me to contact you in case you don't LIVE on the forum like so many of us do!!

If I have questions, I'll get back to you pronto. So be sure to check your PMs to see if I have any questions concerning your order.

Wow those monkeys are fast. I'll have to start talking to the family and determine what we will need for Peepstock.

Is it a fashion faux pas to wear Peepstock jewelry on our November trip? I'm so out of the loop on whats "in".

OK, I'm a guy so try not to laugh to hard when I ask this question.

Do the bracelets tie closed, or do they have a clasp like the anklet? In other words, are they meant to slide over your hand or do they open?

(sorry -just had to do that to ya)

The bracelets do not have a clasp. They're on polymer cording that has a stretch to it - not like a rubber band, but enough stretch to easily slide up over an extended hand. The anklets have a lobster claw clasp and are on polymer cording also.

Thanks for the heads up. I'll change the construction description to make it more clear.
