Some New Spring Things

This lovely journal from artist Jill Bliss is not just pretty on the outside, but each entry page is beautifully illustrated too!

This little mushroom and bird postcard is one design (of 3) we have in from Paper Milk. When was the last time you got a postcard from an old friend? Remember how happy you were? For under $2 (the stamp is even cheaper on a postcard) you can make somebody's day!

This pendant necklace is just one of the many great pieces of jewelry we have in from Captured Moments--all handmade with elements from a past life. Both necklaces and earrings are here for your perusal!

More Jewelry!

All I can say about this jewelry from [wired] is wow! It is handmade from recycled and surplus industrial and commercial materials by a Chicago artist who is currently living in St. Martin and setting up a recycling program there. It's really edgy, but beautiful, too. I have many styles from which to choose--even a few pieces for men.

This cuff bracelet from is made from old electronics resistors (from the 1950s) and surplus steel wire!
These Dangling beauties are made from surplus magnet wire and scrap neoprene--a red wire necklace with the same dangles is also availbale.
I have several styles of these earrings made from surplus rubber and/or Effen vodka labels. One pair even has the Effen barcode stripes on it.

Mittens and Hankies and Cards--Oh My!

It's almost Valentine's Day--you can tell because I've changed the Lite Brite picture. . .

If your gal wants jewelry for Valentine's Day we have a lot to choose from. These earrings are from Dunitz & Co., a fair-trade certified company out of Hollywood, California. There are rings, bracelets and necklaces from them too--come in and check them out!

Moda Home has done it again--another set of super cute dish towels in a fabric envelope . These have rick rack trim, so that makes them even cuter in my book!

These hand crocheted hearts would look so cute on a gift box for your sweetheart!
These are the sweetest little Valentine's Day hanky cards! They're going fast, so if you want one, come and get it soon. Each card has a red and white hanky tucked inside.
Hand knit mittens for kids have just come in! Okay, that means that the knitting lady walked them over here, but they're new and cute!



I hope to see you soon! Remember: you can always have me order things for you from Melissa and Doug (and many of my other vendors). Save yourself the shipping cost!
