Cryptic Cuties Chainmail

Medusa is in the shop! We love the way this design blends the deadly beauty of Medusa (those💀 eyes!) with the silliness of GOOGLY EYES 👀 on her head full of snakes. And to top it all off she smells like lemongrass 😌

Medusa is here! I love that she blends creepy and adorable/silly with the skull eyes and head full of googly eyed snakes 🐍 She’s a great fidget toy for anyone who likes playing with hair, and makes a satisfying rattling sound when you shake it back and forth 😌 Plus, her scent is lemongrass - my personal fave! 💚

Cthulhu is now in stock! This lil cutie has a special place in my heart as the first monster I prototyped when building out the concept for Cryptic Cuties. I love his evil, beady eyes and the bright citrus smell. His tentacles and wings are also so much fun to fidget with. No sanity check needed here, this Cthulhu is a certified (cryptic) cutie!

At the end of May/beginning of June, we will officially rebrand to Cryptic Cuties Chainmail, where our shop will be taken over by a lineup of adorable monster-themed scented stress balls and fidgets. Whatever jewelry is left will be broken down for parts - so if you’ve had your eye on something, it’s now or never!

🚨SHOP ANNOUNCEMENT🚨

Hey everyone! My Kickstarter ended a couple weeks ago and I want to start by thanking everyone who supported us!

Here’s what that means for Geeky Gaea Designs: It probably won’t be much of a surprise, that this means I will be discontinuing the Geeky Gaea brand.

It’s been an honor to offer you all unique chainmail jewelry, and I loved chatting with everyone who stopped by my booth. But as a one-person business making handmade crafts, I don’t have the time to run both Cryptic Cuties and Geeky Gaea.

I will be renaming this page and the shop to reflect the new direction. AND to make room for new stock, I’m running clearance sales on all the jewelry I’m discontinuing. This will be your last chance to get most of my wearable art - once it’s gone, it’s gone!

Thank you again for supporting the jewelry business all these years, it has meant so much to me. Hopefully you’ll stick around to follow the stress ball monster journey, too!

GeekyGaeaDesigns - Etsy Shop Wild jewelry for untamed spirits by GeekyGaeaDesigns located in Lloyd, New York. Top shop for gifts. Buyers bought gifts from this shop and gave them 5-star reviews!

Hey friends! Im offering 20% off my entire shop from now til 10/20! 🙌 (Etsy link in bio)

Weird time for a sale? I’m having shoulder surgery after 10/20. I’ll be unable to make new chainmail for a few months - and packing orders during prime shopping season will take me longer. If you were thinking of gifting someone (or yourself) one of my pieces for the holidays and have the means to shop early, I hope you’ll take advantage of the sale - and my last month with two good arms 😉
