Only a few hours left of my summer vacation. One of my goals was to decorate my home office/atelier. Here it is! The pictures are a little blurry... I guess I was too excited to show it off!

Birthday Wishlist

I'll be celebrating a milestone birthday (25 you say? hum, right... let's pretend that's the right number, ok? ;-)) on September 1st and here are some gorgeous Etsy items that are on my wishlist. I will almost for sure treat myself to one or two of these as a gift to me from me with much love!

SNUGGLE UP TOP by SHIHAR

I love wrap tops. and I love that this one comes in a larger size to fit all of my ahem...curves.

I would get it in red. Very sexy!

I have this thing for strawberry jewelry but when it comes to fruits raspberry is my favorite. Weird...

Nouveautés estivales

Outre les classiques colorés caractéristiques de Rouge picoté noir (voyez-en quelques-uns ici), l'été 2009 apporte son lot de nouvelles créations emballantes!

Colliers torsadés ensoleillés

Boucles d'oreilles champêtres

Chic fleurs colorées (broches)

Art Deco-ish brand new design!

had incorporated vintage jewelry in some of my designs before, but I am really proud of these brand new pendants. They are really intricate and I feel they have a somewhat of an Art Deco flair to them. Creating them really made me feel like a true artist!

AB Obsession

For as long as I can remember, I have had this attraction to anything sparkly. When I bought my first piece of vintage AB (aurora borealis) jewelry (an amazing pink AB necklace and earrings set) almost ten years ago, I didn't know that it was the start of a wonderful love affair - dare I even say obsession - with vintage costume jewelry from the fifties and sixties.

Speaking of AB vintage jewelry, I just bought this cute vintage ring from Etsy seller dibabeads. I haven't received it yet but I can't wait to wear it! It will be a nice addition to fulfill my growing addiction... collection, I mean!

Update : I got it! It is so sweet and sparkly, I love it!

Flowery Summer Earrings

For me, the perfect summer earrings have to be really simple, yet elegant. They have to have just the right amount of sparkle and color to make any summer outfit bloom. And Etsy is full of beautiful flowery summer earrings. I wish I could buy them all and have a beautiful bouquet of summer earrings!

Summer blooms

These cute flower earrings are my latest summer creation. They are the perfect fun acessory to brighten any summer outfit, aren't they?

Fuchsia obsession

I've said it before and I'll say it again, I am in love with fuchsia. My obsession for this bright, sexy color has even been the source of teasing from my friends and family. What can I say? I am a fuschia girl! But I am not alone, as it seems that a lot of Etsy sellers are also inspired by my favorite color. Here are a few gorgeous fuchsia items that caught my eye.

This mini frame pouch - pink dots on fuchsia by oktak is the cutest thing ever!

How sassy are these earrings? Hot Mama - Hot Pink Wood Gingerbread Earrings by DesignedbyRJ.

These Gorgeous Vintage Lucite Magenta Faceted Bead Earrings by ShySiren are so sexy and fun for an evening out


This Fuchsia Crystal Ring by Poigirl99 might just be the perfect fuchsia lover accessory...

This Crochet Ring - Fuschia Pop by Unraveled is sooooo fun! That' what fuchsia is all about!


Oh, and did I mention I also love everything Indian? So this is perfectly my taste! Fuschia Hot Pink and Gold Butterfly sari handbag (saree) by pomoga.


And last but not least, a beautiful Fuschia - Photographic Print - 5x7 by wondra.

Seafoam and Steampunk

This Treasury, selected by Andromedii, is quite a sea of seafoam! My VINTAGE SEAFOAM - Long beads and artistic wire necklace is in bright, luxurious seafoam company! To see the Treasury, click here.

Pink Treasures

Pink is definitely one of my favorite colors... and dibabeads has done an amazing job at creating an Etsy Treasury featuring a beautiful array of pink jewelry. My SPRING FEVER RIO DE JANEIRO - Twisted artistic wire bracelet in fuchsia is in such sweet, colorful company!

Carnevale

Once in a while, a creation seems to come to life almost on its own, even more beautiful than what you had imagined when you designed it. This sculpted twisted artistic wire "Carnevale" necklace is fun and vibrant and just the perfect accessory to go out dancing in the streets or something.

It will soon be available in my Etsy shop, so come check it out!

Spring Fever

Since there has been two major snowstorms in the last five days here, it seems Spring will NEVER come... But through the magic of creativity, I can make the snow (all 450 cm - that' over 10 feet- of it!) melt with these amazing bracelets. With bright and warm colors such as seafoam, lime and fuschia, they are a ray of sunshine!

They will soon be listed in my Etsy shop!

It's a guy thing

Designing men's jewelry is a whole other ballgame... and I never really knew how to use my signature material, colored artistic wire, so it would be all manly and stuff...But I designed this charm necklace for my musician brother and I am quite found of it! Maybe I will have jewelry for men in my Etsy shop eventually, you never know!
