Sparkle Thots

Been having rather gloomy weather these few days… so decided to spruce things up with something bright and beautiful. A cluster of three flowers dangle from gold plated kidney earhooks and sway with every movement.

Add a bit of zest to your day.

Limited edition. Leave a comment to reserve.

Leah of More Ways To Waste Time spotted these amazing mobiles at Spin Designs. They are simply gorgeous! They would fit perfectly in modern homes and I’d love to see them in mine! Except that the little kiddo would tug on them, rip them off and break my heart.

My fave!, Birdie USD 42

Eiffel Tower, USD 42

Chandelier, USD 42

Obsession, USD 42

Maybe this particular one would work in my home! Friends, USD 28

I can’t believe it is already Tuesday. I’ve been really busy on the home front and have been sending out the orders as fast as I receive them. I trust that Singpost has been prompt too and that all packages have been received.

This is a simple piece. A reminder that sometimes, simple is key. It is already in store. A matted finish pewter heart hangs elegantly from silver plated chains. Remember to love. Remember to hug those you love dear.

I am still praying for Nie Nie and really wish them a speedy recovery. In God’s time, everything will be beautiful again. In His time, everything well be perfect.

Two more days to the auction!

Spotted via Rare Bird Finds, I wonder whether these rock vases are available at the Singapore Takashimaya… For the blessed people living in the US, here’s where they are available.

Personally, I think they make a great centrepiece, indoors or out. Indoors preferably.

Have I ever told you I am a sucker for hearts?

And that I fell head over heels in love with this hearty cup and saucer set? Available at MollaSpace for USD 17 (sale!).

Oh and I’ve decided that this week, I’d feature items for the home. Just so you know.

About a week ago, the blogosphere was thick with sending love to Nie Nie and her family. Via all the blog posts, I made my way over to The Nie Nie Dialogues. My one regret is that it took me so long to discover this lovely person. Her blog is so full of love and life, that it was most heartwrenching to read about the plane crash and how it has affected them so much.

I have been following C Jane Run closely for updates and have been hoping to help. And now together with Leslie of A Room Somewhere, I have decided to come out of my closet and donate this necklace. It is up for a silent auction Thursday, US Time and ALL proceeds will go straight to the fund. Medical expenses are going to be high and every bit counts.

If you would love Sparkle Thots jewelry, now is a good time to purchase. If you love The Old Oak Tree necklace, grab it during this auction. If you would like to donate direct to the family, follow the link below.

And for this week… A Whisper of Green and Apple Aqua top the charts in equal positioning. Like a reflection of the odd weather ’swings’ we are having, hot, sunny mornings often ending in rainy afternoons, these two treasuries are like opposites of the same. Confused?

Oh No is funny and quirky fun. And really the title, well, not that the items are disasters (FAR FROM IT!) but that curator backwoodsophisticate could not think of a title in time. LOL.

and well, to round up the selections is this treasury choc-ful of bags. Like I always say, you cannot have too many bags.

Enjoy the last bit of the weekend..! We’d be back with more jewelry tomorrow and a week’s look into home decor items.

This week’s DIY is fun, quick and easy. Spotted on How About Orange, the dressing up of small glass vessels turns them into beautiful vases for your flowers. Perfect. Even if you just want to use this method to display your beautiful scrap pieces of cloth.

The covers are easily removable and can be changed at whim. So you can coordinate your seasonal decorations if you so wish! Yay for budget easy to do ideas.

Remember these?

Some have been turned into…

these!

Not many of course. I hate too many repetitions. Limited pairs available. I think they are classy enough for dinners, smart enough for work and sweet enough for the weekend. Versatile in my opinion.

Launching Casual Fridays! Well, we all know what casual fridays are like in the working world. For the lucky companies that have it that is. For a start, two pairs of earrings in yellow and white. Similar yet different. Pretty retro, pretty quirky, pretty ‘pop’.

Lemon Twist

Two white beads with a slight twist are finished with a yellow drop. A length of approximately 1.5 inches.

Lemon Gold

Cream Swarovski crystals ending with a yellow czech glass drop. Also approximately 1.5 inches long.

Or save it for the weekend.
