Thank you, Mr. Mailman

The mailman brought me my latest orders on Saturday. How happy was I to see these?

Going to be making some lovely hairpins. I got some paper flowers on sale at Michaels last week. So, not only will these lovely flower cabs make an appearance on these lovely pins, but I'll also have some paper flower pins. Yay.

Now, these LOOK like cabs, but they have tiny holes at the top and bottom. I have a special project in mind inspired by a pair of high fashion earrings. I'll do a lovely post on them when I finally have time to make them. These cabs and hairpins come from oh what fun, over on Etsy.

And LOOK! I finally got to order my silk sari ribbon. LaShell, over at designtalentedone, took my custom variety pack and rolled ribbon order and added two little bundles of coral and black. I'm loving the feel. Rubbing the ribbon on my fingers.

Hope everyone is having a fantastic Easter weekend. Follow me on Instagram! I need more people to follow too :)

Oh Gosh, That Color Again???

Just ordered some flower cabs from shopgeorgiamiss. Aaaand I wound up with this as one of my items:

Mint green... honeydew... sea foam... I'm just in love with this color.

Even made a design board (a la bloggy hero, Lorelei Eurto):

I started making design boards last week and I'm thinking about my jewelry in a different way. Like as I'm designing and sketching, I ask myself, "Is that really wearable?" and "What would someone wear this with?" It's interesting just how much looking at clothes is influencing my sketches.

... I popped in the first season of Big Bang Theory and it's distracting me from writing this blog... I love Sheldon.

Happy Friday everyone!
