Thanks so much, Kelley! mb

A Fashionable Abode

Modern Apartment Therapy

Home is where the heart is... and this heart's yearning for some yester-year style.  Simple, classic shapes and shades to lighten and brighten up living spaces.

A friend has just moved into her new Art Deco apartment in Wellington this weekend and asked me to send her a pair of macrame lamp shades we spotted on my street during her recent visit.  It's the same store where I found my giant (13 bulb) hand-carved wooden chandelier, which I painted dark blue.  So I got inspired and whipped up this selection of complimentary homewares.

Chances are, my eyes will wander at the market... you never know what treasures you might find!  mb

Campers Are Not For Camping

Annie Alto by Camper

Ariadna by Camper

Rachael by Camper

I have a confession to make:  I own fourteen pairs of Camper shoes.  Actually, that's not quite true.  Three pairs are boots

New season is on the way now.  Somebody stop me.  Then again, there are worse addictions... mb

Black Swan

Black Swan Earrings by Shayisa

Swan Lake was fashioned from Russian folk tales and tells the story of Odette, a princess turned into a swan by an evil sorcerer's curse.

I made this treasury today and couldn't resist the earrings... now they're mine!  mb

A Stitch in Time

Hand Embroidered Corset by Irenagasha on Etsy

I am speechless - this Etsy seller's traditionally handmade and embellished pieces are exquisite.  mb
