BRING ON THE CANDLELIGHT!!

Wednesday, January 25th, 2012


Aren’t they the happiest you’ve seen?!

We think so too..
and here’s the best part.. we made them.
And now you can too (GASP)!!
A little taste of “EXOTIC-meets-PROVENCE” for your sassy abode.

What’s Your SPIN?

We used little bits and scraps
from our baskets of crafty goods
(they’re brimming-over with possibilities).
If you’ve found us (LUCKY US)…
we’re pretty sure you’re the basket half-full type too!

May your hearts be filled with color
(+ your fingernails as gloriously stained and rough as OURS)!!

WE’RE UP TO SOMETHING GOOD

Wednesday, January 11th, 2012

Tarnished silver, bits of this… and remnants of that.
Throw in a few wild feathers and we’re off.

Rusted metal and citrine glass..
a good layer of patina for good luck..
and you never know what may come.

A basket filled with a day’s worth of playing and creating. Tortoiseshell purse handles (hmmm).. broken brass sconces.. verdigris lamp castings.. mis-matched silverware.. glazed pots and Italian postcards. Our favorite ingredients all toppled and tied together with CHARM. (Don’t worry – we’ll share soon.. check back often. And keep collecting)!
