Loving this print from oddly named illustrator Lunchbreath on etsy. In fact I love a lot what's in his (I think its a he?!) shop. Think I may need to work on widening my vocabulary as I've just started playing the Scrabble game W ords with Friends on my iPhone and sadly I think my brain has started to atrophy as I'm terrible at it. Impatiently using the first word that comes to mind rather than considered, tactical play leads to regular beatings I'm afraid.

brilliant ebay find

I was admiring my friend L's homemade necklace the other day. She'd found a beautiful pair of vintage pocket watch keys in a charity shop and threaded them onto a long chain to make a pretty and unusual pendant. I thought I'd have a little look around Ebay to see if I might find any equally pretty keys for a similar project when I stumbled across, and promptly bought this beautiful (and working!) fob watch necklace by Fallen Angel .  They specialise in creating vintage inspired hand made jewellery and seem to have a bit of an obsession with Alice in Wonderland themed necklaces. I must admit I never really think to look for jewellery on Ebay, I tend to go to Etsy if I'm looking for something handmade or quirky, but judging by how many of Fallen Angel's pieces I've earmarked for possible Christmas gifts, clearly I might have been missing a trick.

I was very happy to be sent a link to Dear Coleen's etsy shop this week. Coleen's a Brit, based currently in New Zealand who also has a rather lovely looking blog here . I absolutely love her simple graphic prints and zingy colours. I suspect 'I would rather have champagne than real pain' might be next in line to grace one of my walls, says it all for me!

I'm bowled over by these exquisite rings designed by Italian designer Arosha Luigi Taglia. having done a little digging it seems Arosha's a multi-discipline designer with lines in art, sculpture and interior products as well as making beautiful baubles like this. His work's available through his etsy shop and further information about his other work at his website .
