From my closet: lacy top

August 04, 2011 / 2 Comments

Hello there, seeing double – second post for today! A little update into my closet this evening, I got this lacy top some time ago and finally wore it for the first time today. It’s different and light for hot weather (like right about now.)

Here’s a picture of some new metallic paint swatches, all about the shimmery!


Right now I have the second wave of my bracelet workshop to start, listing new things starting tomorrow. I’m really hoping to get a lot done today so toodles!!! ;)

Workshop updates

August 03, 2011 / Leave a comment?

Feeling like I’m falling behind in making new bracelets. I’m still hoping to list a few new ones this week. Busy and exhausted from work. I’ve started working on new pieces – like the ones below, but also new necklaces that I can’t wait to share. New colors, patterns, and shapes to come :)


Low quality photo thanks to my handy iPod, working up a favorites post that might go up a wee bit later tomorrow than planned. Can you say Thursday?! Now bed time for me.

Camera roll

I hope everyone had a great weekend, it’s already August, whoa!!! Here are some random shots from my iPod over the weekend, mostly interesting bits from the thrift store.

pretty neat Super 8 camera | ahhhmazing velvet green bench (I didn’t even look at the price!)

My sister modeling this vintage briefcase | my $3.50 southwestern blankets <3 & new Ikea bedsheets

Friday // Saturday

Doggy love


Anyone else getting tired of this 90 degree weather?! I looove going to the pool but it’s getting exhausting (I have a pretty good tan now though.) Today is all about figuring out how I’m gonna keep myself busy this week. Definitely restocking the Etsy shop in a couple of days, and maybe doing a DIY! And probably eagerly anticipating the goodies I bought last week, aaahh!

PS: discovered a new *free* photo editing app BeFunky – love it!

Stocking up new inventory in the Etsy shop

July 26, 2011 / 2 Comments

Happy Tuesday! I listed a few new pieces in our Etsy shop last night, they are disappearing faster than I can blink, so make sure you check them out. While taking pictures I realized how many bracelets I actually made – A LOT! Here’s a bunch of them layered together, so fun!

I still have a few more drafts left to go over before hitting the publish button. I feel very accomplished this week, I did a whole lot of work and I hope you’ll like it ;) Now I have time to sketch and plan in my planner. Yay!

Monday ramblings

July 25, 2011 / 2 Comments

It’s a new week that means it’s time to get stuff done! I’m scheduling things in my head right now, remembering to actually write everything down before I forget. I will be listing new bracelets on our Etsy this week, looking forward to that!! First order of business: pictures pictures pictures.

Now speaking of pictures, here’s a few ramblings from this weekend… I ordered some temporary tattoos from Tattly (found via Liz) and they couldn’t be more awesome. I’m saving the polaroid for another day, right now I’m trying out the knuckle tats and separating them, really cool :)

L U C K

We got hit by huuge storms on Friday and Saturday. Apocalyptic dark clouds…

Jumbo beads! — Sketchy time — new bracelets

Color coding — the pooch — charm bracelet

Captain America – my sister’s glittery nails – pretty sunset

Enjoy your Monday! :)

THE DUMP

July 24, 2011 / Leave a comment?

My brother found a Red Stripe hat and a True Love skateboarding Red Sox tee.

I recently posted some pictures and told you about Martha’s Vineyard and how amazing it was. I also said that I would share one of my favorite places on the Island…and this is it! THE DUMP! In the middle of nowhere is this little shed full of amazing things. The Dump is a reusable article exchange, where you can drop off belongings or rummage and take what you please. And everythings…FREE! A dream come true. Its open three days a week and items are dropped off throughout the week. So theres always something new! Theres bins, racks, shelves, and things hanging from the ceiling. Definitely worth taking the time to dig and look for the good stuff! I walked away with a purple button up, some great Levi’s cut off shorts, a scarf, a cute striped tee and more! Another one of those things I wish we had here in IL … there’s nothing better than great finds for free. :-)

Display Inspiration

I was on a mission at the mall yesterday to find a formal dress for an upcoming wedding. But took a couple minutes to go browse Anthropologie…

Seriously how can one store be soo amazing! I snapped some pictures of their fabulous displays for some inspiration for “future stores” and was on my way. So inspiring…

What’s happening in our Etsy shop

July 19, 2011 / 1 Comment

Had a very busy weekend – I packed up some bracelets and shipped them out yesterday. Great response to the bracelets and I couldn’t be happier! Please excuse the iPod photo spams as I’m camera-less (again) – but I hope to have my camera back by the weekend. Can’t wait to take pictures of new goodies!

Here are the new pieces I’ve been working on, trying new colors, beads and things. I still have a whole baggie of colored thread that I plan on using up. Next on the list: find more beads (preferably with bigger holes!)


There’s still a few bracelets up for grabs on our Etsy – listing more next week :)

PS: I put up the last Wishing on a Black Moon bracelet late last night. I broke one of the glass beads and the count isn’t the same, bummer! Must must must make a bead run.
