flat-pack wooden bracelets

I was one of those kids that loved making crafts out of flat-pack kits.  Things like doll house furniture, airplanes - way too much fun!
These silk-screened wooden bracelets from Tivi have that same spirit of playfulness - each pack has four bracelets that you punch out and wear:

This necklace from Manic Trout is for the woman who wants to make a statement with her accessories - as my grandfather would say “Wear it with panache!”

The “Tivoli - Flat Ava” cork clutch purse:

cork belts?

I think this cork belt from Maison Martin Margiela looks really cool:

I have one little concern - how well is that layer of cork going to hold up as a belt?  Yes, it’s laminated onto leather - but I’d hate to spend $245 and have the belt fall apart on me!
So does anyone have experiences […]

wicker bracelets

I think everyone knows by now that I have a soft spot for wicker purses, but I hadn’t come across wicker bracelets before:

Carole Cole, an accessories designer from Oregon, creates these woven bracelets from rattan (the same material that wicker furniture & baskets are made from).  They are also amazing inexpensive - about $10 per […]

Happy Flower cuff bracelet

My flowers are finally starting to bloom in my garden which inspired me to look for something appropriately cheerful & flowery today…  I think the “Happy Flower” cuff bracelet from Rimistyle fits the bill:

It even comes in different colors!

resin pendants

I’m lusting after this resin & Zebrawood pendant from Garnish Home:

It’s made from recycled Zebrawood, that would normally just be thrown away by the furniture manufacturers.  Earth-friendly and cool - what a great combination!
