Beautiful beautiful jewelry from Mushka Designs. Here’s what owner and creator Sarah says about her craft: “Mushka is a body of work that represents a fusion between functional jewelry and the art of metal sculpture.” She does that so well! Just love it. You can find Mushka all over the web. At Smashing Darling, Etsy, her own site, Make My Tags {for the cute tags in the picture above}..and on Muska’s blog. AND, if that’s not enough, she’s offering a fantastic discount! Enter the code MUSHKA2559 at checkout and receive 15% off you entire order. So, get shopping people!

Urban Heirlooms offers exquisitely crafted leather wallets, purses and cuffs for sale in their etsy shop. I just adore the vintage keys! Here’s a blurb from their homepage {I love it!!}:
“If this were a storefront, it would be on a sunny, tree-lined street behind plate glass windows, with a wooden swing in front trailing sweet honeysuckle vines. Ella Fitzgerald would be singing from the Cole Porter Songbook, and I’d offer you a glass of sweet tea.”
{Oh, and I’m pretty sure that vintagey isn’t a word!!}

In my quest to be a little greener {collecting rainwater, composting, recycling, driving less, etc…}, I realize that there are folks out there who take things to the next level. Preserve Industries is the perfect example of that. I’m blown away by their commitment to the environment. All of their products have had a previous life….their repurposed luggage is my favorite! {I swear that my parents have the exact same brown suitcase in the closet back home somewhere…it’s just not as cool without the little gold airplanes all over it!}. I’m officially inspired to do more.
I love Soapy Love’s soapsicles. They are great to have on hand as hostess gifts, they look adorable in your soapdish, and kids absolutely love them (even surly teenagers)! So…I was really excited to learn about The Soap Lab. Each month, Soapy Love’s creator, Debbie Chialtas presents mini sets of soaps to purchase through her blog (which has fun finds on it as well). Her writers block soap is shown above, left. I’m smitten!

Aran Gallagan from The Bittersweet Project uses mostly recycled gold and steel for her beautiful jewelry. I just love the way the steel looks so feminine…and mixed with gold, it’s fantastic! Love her stuff!
