Tea for two is under way!

newly added

Shop’s been restocked with most of the latest collection from this week. A couple of items have sold out already…

All orders paid since Friday ship today. Watch out for them in your letterbox!

sneaks

there’s something lovely about this piece. Matt gold plated pewter (lead free) hearts are paired with faceted greenish blue (yes, the photos captured the green only) Swarovski rondelles, and strung on large gold plated hoops (with tiny heart accents.

Hangs at about 2cm drop excluding earhoops.

Not yet loaded in store. Leave a comment to reserve if you cannot wait. Retails at SGD 24.

in love with briolettes

Faceted briolettes are always nice and sparkly. Even if they are smoky quartz. Aren’t these lovely?!

Slightly imperfect in the way the holes are cut, the faceting is gorgeous. I love the way the light rays bend as they hit the briolette. Full of sparkle and shine. And in a classic colour combination too. Gold and brown / black. You can’t go wrong with it. In fact, it will look fabulous teamed up with the little black dress.

First piece features a wirewrapped briolette strung on a 17 inch chain, with a pendant drop of 1 inch. Second piece is a briolette strung directly on a 18 inch chain, with a pendant drop of 2cm. Both pieces close with a lobster clasp accented with a Swarovski bicone. Each retails at SGD 28. Please note that both hang a little off centre due to the hole. If fussy, do not buy.

Tea From Two Goes Virtual

Tea From Two has turned virtual! Yes, you heard it right. A lot of you have reflected that this coming Saturday is an auspicious day and a lot of weddings are taking place! Either that or by some sheer coincidence, you are ALL attending the same wedding. A couple of international friends have expressed disappointment about not being present so… let’s shift this Tea From Two party online!

Where is it taking place? What’s happening?

Well… if you are ready to shop early for Christmas, we are doing stock clearance on our older items. A select list will be on sale as well as new items would be released. Grab them quick. Deal of the day items will be released soon, straight through till end Sept. Shipping will still be a flat rate of SGD4 for local deliveries and SGD5.60 for overseas.

All items will be sold on a first come first serve basis. Leave a comment to reserve. Payment is expected within 3 working days, otherwise item will be re-released.

So, shop now, prepare early for Christmas. Even if it is just this once. Or just use this opportunity to stock up your trinket box. I know you can’t have too many accessories. My own stash is testament enough!

ps: if you still would like to see the items in person, feel free to contact me to arrange for a special private session.

Shoppe Reloaded!

Monday blues begone! Shop’s been restocked! Have fun shopping …

Purchases made this week have a little something extra. And I’m not sharing what it is!

a stunning looker

Lariats can be really versatile. It depends a whole lot on how you wear them. Tie them long, tie them short, wear them at centre or by the side, and you get varying looks. Try and see what suits you best. Then again, it may change as the weather changes.

Take this piece for example… (all 3 images feature the exact SAME lariat necklace) …

Tied at almost equal lengths, down in half…

… with one length much longer than the other ..

and with the necklace by the side.

Yummy really. Wear your lariats whilst looking in the mirror and don’t be afraid to experiment. What’s the worst that could happen?

This particular strand measures an approximate 20 inches from end to end. At the absolute ends are clusters of faceted moonstone rondelles in white. Linking them to the chains are smooth kyanite rondelles with tiny flecks of black. A lovely piece in my opinion. And quite reflective of the weather we have. I guess you can say this was inspired by nature?

In shop soon. Limited quantities as usual.

Casual Fridays

She was tired of jumping through hoops all day so she figured, she might as well spice things up. A feminine touch might just do the trick… And make the last few hours fly on by.

The weekend’s in sight! Woohoo! For the students, it isn’t so great because it means the one week break is almost up. For the rest slogging in the offices, some eye candy to get you through the last few hours of work.

A Rainbow Connection, small hoops of multicoloured cat’s eye are always great. They are cheerful and a reminder to look for the rainbow after the rainstorm.

A Touch Of Opulence, dress up a little because Friday nights are time out for fun. Czech glass beads with a metallic finishing are staple. And in a rosy pink kind of hue for the girly-girl you are.

Lavender Fields Forever, Needing a rest? Send subtle messages to those around you and yourself… Add a touch of lavender essential oils and relax… Lavender czech glass beads on the hoop. In the softest shades possible. Ahhh…

Each pair retails at $15 and for a limited time period, get all three for $42.

admiring the moon

...stone. Cheesy I know but at 1.30am, my brain could only shout out "SNEAK PEEKS!" as an alternative. Oh well.

Anyhow... it is a new month (4 days in to be precise) and I have gotten a fresh batch of yummy gem-mies as a way of saying 'hurrah for surviving August'. And I have gotten busy with them too.

So I started with this strand of faceted moonstone rondelles ...

and turned them into this pretty straight row (pun intended) ...

and this other lariat that you already had a sneak peek of ...

as well as this one paired with last month's peach aventurine. :)

Nice? I sure hope you'd think so too! Because I love them all to bits. I'd load them soon I promise. Advance orders welcomed too!

ps: funny how I did so many necklaces. I was intending for September to be a earring fest... Hmm.

pss: you do know that the flickr photostream is always the first to be updated with yummy goodies right? Then either the blog or the shop. Depending on the mood :D

Friendship Garden

In friendship’s fragrant garden,
There are flowers of every hue.
Each with its own fair beauty
And its gift of joy for you.
Friendship’s Garden

Lucite flowers in three lovely shades are paired with dainty Swarovski pearls and dangle off gold plated kidney earhooks in a delightful cluster.

And just for today… in an effort to chase away the silly rainy day blues I am having, these earrings retail at $15 each.

Amazonite Bleu

Working with amazonite again after a long break, I am remembering the reason why I fell in love with it in the first place. I love the robin blue hues of the stone and this piece features a cluster drop set against gold. A classic feel that would be perfect for a simple wedding.

Or a gift for the bride. Whether she gets it for herself or is gifted it by her friends, it fulfills the traditional “something blue” aspect to perfection.

********************

Amazonite Bleu is an amazonite cluster pendant strung on 18 inch gold plated chain. Closes with a lobster clasp for easy wear. Classic, timeless and modern all at the same time. Available in store at $31.50 for a limited period (10% off UP$35).

pearls for the weekend

I missed the morning light so I don’t have a pretty pretty picture of this. So this will have to do for now.

A simple yet elegant necklace made of 2 different gold hued Swarovski crystal pearls strung on gold plated chain. This necklace measures approximately 18 inches in length and is enough to dress your simple white top up. No need for over the top bling.

Sometimes a little goes a long way.

Available at $20 for TODAY only (because it was such a poor photo!). Price reverts to $23.50 thereafter. Leave a comment here to order.

be of good courage!

Fresh out of the oven is this necklace. It is simple statement, a sterling silver affirmation heart, stamped with 'courage' on both sides hangs off a stainless steel 18 inch wire chain. Pendant can be removed at will. But I think it looks good like that!

kitty kitty

Hi everyone… meet Kitty Kitty. She is a bracelet of 6 inches long. The kitty charm runs along the entire length of the chain at will. She spends her day chasing after the rose pink ball that forever is so close-yet so far. Ends with a heart shaped toggle clasp. Triple strand bracelet.
