Festival Jewellery






Just back from the magical wonderland garden party that is the Body and Soul Festival where I reckon these leather bracelets would go down nicely . They are rose leaf is entirely hand crafted from pure bronze by
Elizabeth Silkstone in her Dublin studio. Natures best.

like opening a virtual treasure trove. There's pages and pages of  beautiful handcrafted bead work and jewellery by Dublin based Balanced. Nice

Cause you never know when you'll need a mo!





I don't know why but I've always wanted a moustache ring. Endless entertainment at your fingertips I guess! This little one above is by Fiona Fawn, found here on her Etsy shop. She's got quite the fun selection of quirky handcrafted accessories for sale there like that cute cupcake ring above and this guy.

The Informal Florist





Its Friday, its spring time and the birds are tweeting where I am so I thought I'd share a wonderful discovery I came across at a Christmas market last year. She call's herself The Informal Florist and and I was taken instantly with what she calls 'mismatched, relaxed and non-traditional floral design'. I won't go on, she's just got a new website gallery up so just sit back , enjoy and smell the roses!

Sweet little drawings by illustrator Sarah Cunningham, I especially love her use of pattern. And what quirky characters populate her world! 
She's currently on display at the Little Green Street Gallery in Dublin 1 as part of This Offset Space exhibition for OFFSET 2012.
