Hi Crafters, Have you seen the magazines from Stampington? Without a doubt, they have some of the most beautiful magazines I've seen. Their gorgeous layouts and photography make me want to live between the covers. Recently, I sent something off to one of their jewelry magazines and was delighted to be accepted. Jewelry Affaire is filled with intriguing designs that will inspire you to create. And, isn't that what it's all about? Here's the necklace I created. I found a wonderful old brooch in a second-hand shop, and it seemed perfect for a Victorian-style necklace. It was missing the pin back, so I attached it to a round filigree with wire. Then, I picked up the shapes and elements of the brooch in the strands of the necklace. What have you found second-hand, at a flea market or garage sale that inspired you? I have several more brooches that I picked up that day that I want to re-style. And, there's a couple of necklaces that I wore in the 80's that are begging for a chance to see daylight again. Take a look at some of the jewelry that you have lying around and re-mix it into your life! Happy crafting, Terry

This year, I decided not to set lofty, unattainable New Year’s Resolutions. I always vow to journal more, to record more of life’s little moments, and I expect to fill an entire journal by the end of the year. I’m good for the first week, and then my journal sits on the nightstand until the […]

Vous commencez à le savoir, pour moi la mode est vraiment un jeu en plus d'être une passion. Pouvoir trouver des pièces originales et tendances sans y laisser un rein, c'est pas forcément facile, mais c'est largement faisable. Et c'est toujours un plaisir de mettre la main sur une jolie pièce dans un magasin oublié ou un magasin où on met plus les pieds pour X ou Y raisons. Enfin je dis magasin, mais c'est aussi valable en ligne. Je crois que c'est là où je trouve le plus de truc d'ailleurs, notamment à cause des promotions régulières. Bref, quand il y a des bons plans, moi je suis là ( et je les partage aussi sur la page FB d'ailleurs, par ici ! ). Autant vous dire que quand j'ai vu que Tati organisait des ventes-privées, EVIDEMMENT que je suis allée jeter un coup d’œil. Et EVIDEMMENT que j'ai été faible. Le butin ? Cette robe à 16 euros au lieu de 90 et des escarpins Mellow Yellow à 19 euros au lieu 140, de mémoire. Le genre d'achat dont tu te sens fière ! ( Depuis, il y a une autre VP -qui vaut un peu moins le coup niveau promo, je l'avoue - sur le site, rubrique Marques, il suffit juste de vous inscrire ! ). Mais comme il n'y a pas que les ventes-privées dans la vie, je surveille aussi régulièrement les codes promo de marque comme La redoute sur le site de Cuponation ou des codes promo pour Kiabi toujours sur Cuponation, - entres autres mais ce sont les deux que j'ai déjà pu tester, le premier pour ma table basse - qui permettent d'alléger la note à la fin. Et des fois, ça fait du bien ! Passez une belle soirée !
