the past

As a wee little thing, I day dreamed, a lot.

Besides daydreaming, I was always creating things.

The year 2004 was a significant one:

July 8th -- this dot com was born. It was a gift domain from a good pal!

October -- said pal surprised me with gorgeous French General jewelry kits...

After having made my first set of French General bracelet and earrings - humbly, with a pair of scissors - I was inspired to make my friends their own charm bracelets.

the present

My jewelry-making interest has been piqued since, and it still remains as one of my "prime time favorite" hobbies.

In February 2006, I finally took the leap of listing my handmade items on Etsy.

My very first sale was, in fact, a purple charm bracelet.

To this day, I continue to day dream...

Maybe one day, I will have a brick and mortar shop.

All items featured in this shop are lovingly handmade by me, Juanita.

I don't make sketches in a book, but  get inspired from material.

Very often, I get upset over how disorganized things get!

I hope you like the stuff that are created from

The Spur of the Moment!

All juanitatortilla products are handmade one-of-a-kind.

If it says " stock: 1 ",

it really does mean stock : 1 .

( I have no makings of a spy ;

I am a terrible liar,

as most know me to be.)

 I do try my very best to photograph and display each item's natural colour and form.

juanitatortilla products are created in a smoke-free home.

 Each completed piece of jewelry has undergone the Husband Approval + Chuckle Test.

The perk: you only pay a small fee for labor-of-love!

Like most D.I.Y.ers,

I am happy to take

custom orders.

E-mail me; I won't bite!

(But I can't quite vouch for Fluffy on the biting part...)

necklaces, chokers, & pendants

 Except for photo-taking purposes, all  neck items have not been tried on by anyone else, or at any other time.

earrings

 For the sake of hygiene, all earrings have not been tried on by anyone, except for *you*, the buyer and rightful owner.

bracelets, cuffs, & rings

 Hand and arm accessories have been tried on for fit, comfort, and "ergonomics".

This is to ensure that no harm will be caused to the wearer (you)!

 It is also to make doubly-sure all loops and links are well made and stay on!
