Panty By Post

I am a huge fan of beautiful pretty things, in particular cute underwear. So every time I come across this site I just want to sign up for it and see what will be delivered to my door.

'Panty By Post' is such a fun idea, they send pretty French underwear in the mail monthly and you never know what you are going to get. It is always a new surprise and a special treat to you.

The only reason I haven’t signed up for it yet is the fact that I have too many cute pieces as it is.

Bonsai Trees, A Living Art Kit

Green plants and flowers are a great way to decorate your office or home. Here is an elegantly understated bonsai tree kit that has clean lines and an industrial recycled steel material packaging, perfect for any modern day interior.

I personally do not have the green thumb, but this would make a great addition to the collection to those that do. The kit includes everything you need to know to grow and sculpt the tree to create a living work of art.

Each treasury featured, have really well chosen items and I highly recommend browsing through the independent artists products. You might just find a perfect little gift for a loved one.

6 Must See Designs By Klaus Burgel

My jaw simply dropped when I came across these designs by Klaus Burgel. If only I could buy each and everyone of his pieces.

Burgel, is inspired by nature and the sensual properties of the artist’s materials, which can be blatantly seen in the way he present his pieces. They are either presented in an unpolished state to show the impoverished appearance of the material, or in it’s utterly brilliant state.

I just love his amazing weighted pendants made out of semi-precious stones and gold.

Yesterday I went property hunting around Toronto and the outskirts. So I thought this would a perfect time to post about some really great interior designs and office spaces that I love.

I have to admit one of my favorite sites that I check for interior inspiration is Design Sponge! I am sure you all know about this site. So here are a few spaces that I love and found via Design Sponge.

Spirograph Jewelry

I used to love playing with spirographs when I was younger, using different colors and different shapes on top of one and other. So imaging how ecstatic I was when I came across these designs by Miette.

Miette creates beautiful delicate Spirographic jewelry that reminds me on my childhood. The pieces are very unique and can stand alone as a sculptural object.

Bring On The Treasuries

Today has been such a crazy day for me, crazy and exciting. I finally got my tools to start metal smithing and I am having a blast. So far I have managed to solder together a perfect jump ring—on my second go too, as the first time the oven lighter would not light.

But the main thing I have been trying to figure out, is how to properly ventilate the area I am working in. If any metal smiths out their can help me out that would be great.

But back to the main reason for this post, here are the next 5 great treasuries!
