Paper Garlands Necklaces.
Lauren Manoogian’s Paper Garlands necklaces make me scream-from-the-rooftops happy. Colorful paper garlands strung on a leather cord with hand-painted wooden beads. Yay. {via Greedy Girl}

FICTION.
FICTION is a new shop that I’m quickly falling in love with. Artist Maggie Louden has a way of capturing nature in the most subtle of ways. Must be her pacific northwest roots shining through.

CAJA Custom Nameplate.
I’ve wanted a necklace with my name on it ever since the Carrie necklace on Sex and the City. But up until now there just hasn’t been one that’s struck my fancy quite like the CAJA custom nameplate. Each piece is hand calligraphied and cut with a jeweler’s saw and available in both vermeil and silver. Well worth every penny I suspect. {via Pretty Little Things}

Color Theory Poster.
This is the best part of my Monday so far. The Color Theory Quick Reference Poster. Great for explaining a color choice to a client or just for yourself. The unbelievable thing? It’s free. As a PDF, desktop wallpaper and even an editable .eps file. And Print.
