Carousel -- WIP

in this mix:-

  • gold vermeil headpins
  • 14K gold filled wires
  • faceted orange garnet rondelles
  • carved smooth smoky quartz lanterns

I really like how the colours came together in the picture on the carousel and I tried to translate the magic of the moment into this latest piece. I cannot draw and when Muse struck, I cajoled the small one for some time to work out a prototype.

A touch of elegance, a hint of mystery, a liberal dose of magic. I like how it is taking shape. I haven’t quite decided whether it be a bracelet or a necklace. Or what ’sort’ of necklace. Decisions, decisions. Still, the process is truly lovely.

looking for sunshine

I think we are seeing the sunshine after the rain. The blog is taking shape, new orders are packed and ready to go, new pieces are in the works (praying for time to see them through to fruition soon). All is well.

*happy beams*

tidying things up

Pardon the mess. I’m actually working on the blog design. Yes, a first after so many months (ok, more like at least a year). Hang in there. Pardon the out of sync photos and broken links. In general, the blog may come across as an eye-s0re for a couple of days but…I promise it won’t be long.

Tidying up the links list too. A number of sites have come and gone. Let me know if you’d like to be up here somewhere and I’d see if it’d fit in. Erhmm, somehow.

updates at long last

At long last, the shoppe has gotten a mighty big boost of new items. I can’t quite tell which is my favourite of this lot because they are all special and lovely in their own way. I guess you got to discover them yourself.

Oh wait. I’ve decided. The first piece is my fave. The classic combination of black (ok, smoky quartz) and white never fails. Classic, vintage and yet oh so chic. Something that will be a staple in your wardrobe for many years to come. Really. Come on now, you got to admit that you love it too?

quick updates

Guess I spoke too soon about being able to return to regular blogging. My son fell ill again with a nasty viral fever that got us all worried. We were all focused on getting him better so that we can go off for our family holiday this erhmmm, friday. Yeap, so we are off to Hong Kong for a family escapade and won’t be back till Wednesday.

I’d still be online but all orders will only ship from Thursday, 11th March. But… here’s a couple of new items to whet your appetite.
