Stick this!

With the gift-giving season just past, I had to wrap many presents. Instead of traditional tape, this year I used glue for a cleaner finish. This glue bonds paper to paper in under one minute and has a precision tip for easy application. I can't wait to use it for my card-making adventures!

Rain, rain, go away

Whenever I feel like checking out some unique shoe designs, John Fluevog's creations never fail me. Mostly I just ogle the fun shapes and heels, but sometimes I spot something I really want. These yellow patent leather boots definitely fall into the latter category!

Walking on the wild side

This dress has a simple silhouette, but the rest of it really is not so simple... There is ruching at the waist, a daring 7" slit, and of course the large leopard print. Rowr!

Fit for royalty

As someone who makes jewellery, I am very careful about not buying jewellery that I can make myself. That's why this necklace has me all atwitter. The soft watery green amethysts, better known as prasiolites, have a good depth to allow lights and shadows to show off the facets. How lovely this would be paired with a cocktail dress!

Wear with tights

I once cut a picture of a yellow dress with a scalloped bottom out of a magazine and kept it for years and years until I lost it one day. This skirt reminds me of the dress except it has four layers of scalloping and is a different primary colour. Still, it is quite cute isn't it?
