The funny thing is, the entire day, I kept thinking about a character I [...]

Simply Pretty button ring from ShopKim $8
I’ve mentioned several times that I’m lacking in the ring department.  I am also very, very drawn to purple lately.  This ring satisfies both those needs.  I love the nice touch of [...]

Etsy Vintage Love: Owl Brooches

I was starting to put together an Etsy love set focused on owls, but then I realized that there is such a huge abundance of owl themed items on Etsy that it would be impossible to narrow it down into just one set.  So I decided to go with three.  Today’s will focus solely on [...]
