Ear..ear...have you heard?

Inspired by the spring finally getting here and the return of our feathered friends are the next three newest additions to the store.
To see the snow receding and grass appearing brings about a happy refreshed feeling it has to be said.
My cat is equally as appreciative and loves to sit on the deck and miaow talk to the birds, he is loving exploring again in the garden and beyond.

It's also the perfect time over the next month to go for woodland walks, no mosquito's as yet, you just need you're welly rain boots on in case it's a bit muddy!

Melody of small feathers here and teamed up with ribbon
Hoop and wild feather earrings (close up below)

Silver wire with a grouping of soft brown feather
Rooster feathers with green shell, daring and spring like (close up below)

Rooster feathers, ribbon and round green shell


Finally I purchase these great Jasper beads and teamed them up with upcycled wooden beads and then wrapped them in silver wire.
I love the earthy colours of these mixed with the shiny silver wire.

Jasper and wooden beads.

How has spring inspired you, I would love to know.

New Items

Just wanted to share some new items from both stores, plus news and stuff at the bottom of the post!

This throw cushion is the first in a collection called urban chic, it's very modern and like most of the collection will be based on Black, Grey and white.
Very spring and summer like looks in this new accent cushion, would look great in a bedroom or a sunroom..or wherever your happy place is!


Experimenting with a new modern way of wire wrapped jewelry, I love the look of the circles with the shell.

Check out Freckle Lips store tomorrow, she is saying she will have to giveaways and that is not to miss!

Plus I am working on new lines of jewelry with recycled items and will be continuing on with my urban chic range of throw pillows from Maison Elevenses.

I too will host my first giveaway in March so stay tuned!!!!
