My Creative Space

In these photos, I did not showed the latest cabochons that I received, are a wonder! I have not tried them, so I will not reveal anything yet. I'm investing much time in making hair accessories, I want to do them in different sizes and different style, so I can not wait to go buy more supplies! I can not reveal the procedure, to make them, but I'm happy to show you some pictures of the material I use.

gift wrap .....

I made some photos of a wrapped package ready to ship... I'm lucky that my items, wrapped with colored tissue paper first become very small, even though the parcel may seem really close, inside there is room for more than one product, in this way are not bulky, so shipping costs are cheaper. Then I wrap it with bubbles paper, to make it strong and ready for a long trip...
This beginning of September, started very well, and I'm very creative in this period!

I want to remind you that this week, there's my giveaway in "Oh, Hello Friend" BLog, and you can win a $ 40 gift certificate to spend in my etsy shop. hurry up!

Handmade with Love

I've never photographed my jewelry all together... Today I had fun doing these photos on a gray linen cloth; I usually photograph my jewelry on a book or some accessories, but I needed a large space for a photo taken from the top, so I put a cloth on a table...
I chose some of my latest creations... how nice to see them together!!

planning a new packaging

I ordered new business cards from MOO.com, with the latest creations that I made... it seems to have a mini catalog to show, with all different photos, really pretty!
I took a picture of some random stuff in blue, white and red theme... my designs are usually wrapped in blue wrapping paper, which I adore, and combined with red raffia or lovely twist ties... I thought I could change the color combination for the coming months, with red wrapping paper and ribbons beige or cream, may also be appropriate for the month of December... what colors you use for your packages?

New projects and new things in the store

new colors, new patterns, different cabochons, other materials... coming soon... I have many projects and new designs in mind and I hope to achieve them in the coming seasons.
Only yesterday I designed the mini vintage hair pins, they are really pretty, and easy to wear every day... soon I will arrange the new material, and I will put them into production even of different colors... I'm excited about all these ideas came into my mind!
The new series of Hair pins with chrysanthemums is already on sale in my shop, I'm slowly adding new colors with flowers of other shades, so every day there is something new, these hair-pins all in brass are truly stunning!

but this week there was another novelty, have you seen my new necklace with a cascade of chains and charms? I think this is perfect for a special dress or low-cut shirt is very chic and luxurious ... it took me much longer to do it, but I was satisfied with the final result, live is much better than in pictures!

After this revelation, I wish you a lovely weekend!!

Vintage Outfit

• Chloe Earrings - White and Smoky Quartz by me

• Vintage black Purse by nemres

• 1970's stacked black heels and polka dot ruffle blouse by Thrush

Have you ever tried an old shirt of your mom? or a pair of fantastic shoes? when I flip through old photo album, I like to see, as my mum was dressed, I always say: 'wow Mom, what beautiful shoes that you had "!

Many times I've turned old jeans into skirts or something else, and now I love to gather and collect all the old buttons, which are in the attic or between the dresses, of my mother or grandmother ....
I'd love to see some vintage market in some cities, but I don't know where, you know some nice vintage market?
