whiteowl

I am so inspired by this amazing collaboration, whiteowl. Sisters Courtney and Christina Spivak of Michigan create these beautiful and unique pieces of art... wearble art.
Courtney and Christina started making art and films together for years and started making jewelry together in 2007. After being in some indie craft fairs these sisters decided to start their shop on Etsy... and as one would notice from visiting their online store - they are doing very well.

Belt up

 Regardless of the season...
an awesome belt is a must have.

Forget functionality, its about accessorizing. Too big? Great, bend the excess of the belt over the buckle,... fabulous.

Too small ? wear it higher... let it hug your waist, and accentuate your curves.

Vanessa works with thin slabs of porcelain which are folded, cut and pinched to create a line of functional and decorate pieces for the home. Each piece is made to have a unique personality or story, imperfections included.

Vanessa's work give the impression of a functional piece of art, something to be enjoyed, and cherished in your home.

My favorite pieces, are her red dishes,
They are stamped with handmade imagery. Tumbleweeds roll across this series of plates and are stained a deep poppy red color.

Just gorgeous,

quotes and notes

I found this delightful shop on etsy the other day,
I think its just lovely.

Quotes and Notes are all about  simple yet stylish gift accessories ranging from rustic wordy clothespins to shabby poem flower brooches.

Their items have that quality, handmade look to them and are so unique and different.

Kendall Jenner

I am a big Keeping up with the Kardashian's fan.. I absolutely love the show & think the family dynamic is awesome. Since watching the show, I have began to notice, how Kendall Jenner (half sister to Kim, Khloe & Kourtney) is growing up, and how beautiful she is!

A couple of months ago I could have said... aspiring model, but Kendall is already signed with a big time agency, Wilhelmina Models and has modelled for Forever 21 and  Luca Couture. Kendall is also the spokesperson for Nordstrom.

Kendall has also been featured in Teen Vogue, and Paper magazine.

It appears Kendall is already making a name for herself, at only 16.

protea pretty

So today I decided to give my computer desk a new lease on life..
I found this amazing protea flower at Casa Rosa, in Port Elizabeth South Africa - where I live.

I think it is so beautiful, and I bought the vase there aswell. Its that old.. messed up look of the vase that I love so much. The cute touch with the pale pink rafia around the neck of it also compliments the color of the protea fabulously.

Whats wonderful about these flowers.. is one can dry them out by painting them with watered down white paint/ (white wash effect) to set them forever.

I just love my desk now!
