Back in June I linked to this dreamy leather Peter Pan collar tutorial. Soon after I started making one, using the same leather skirt I used for this wristband tutorial. And then partway through I got distracted and put the project aside. Yesterday I found the collar (95% done), and finished it up in about […]
Geometric Chevron Feather Earrings
I think I’ve had a minor feather obsession for as long as I can remember. When I was a little kid I would pick up feathers that I found outside, but my mom told me that they were “dirty” and that I could catch diseases from them. This was before the days of bird flu, […]
Spotty
No doubt due to the influence of the J.Crew catalog that landed in my mailbox recently, I’ve had polka-dots on the brain lately. Naturally I’ve got some DIY projects in mind, but I thought first I’d round up some inspiration. 1. J.Crew 2. Nasty Gal 3. Anthropologie 4. Keds for Madewell 5. Loeffler Randall 6. […]
Ginger Lime Pomegranate Cocktail
Happy Friday! Friday evening seems like the perfect time to share a cocktail recipe that I came up with. Recently I tried a recipe for Jamaican ginger beer from the book Jam It, Pickle It, Cure It. It’s super delicious but also super spicy, so much so that if I’m drinking it straight up I […]
Spaceface!
You know how some designers have a muse, someone who inspires them to come up with new and wonderful ideas? Mine is apparently my cat, Delicious. Last week I joked about making her famous on the internet, but maybe this scarf will make her dreams of internet stardom (…) finally come true. Depending on how […]
Links I Like
Today I was modeling some new products for my shop (more on that in a day or two), and I was trying to come up with a way to wear my hair that would look good with a scarf. I remembered that every time I see Keiko Lynn in a scarf she looks adorable, and […]
Lemon Vodka Raspberry Cream Pop
In a recent post about things I want to do this summer, I mentioned making popsicles and other frozen desserts. So far I’ve tried a couple of recipes, and this one is by far the winner. These are creamy and lemony and, with the hint of vodka, they feel like a grown-up version of a […]
DIY Denim Cut-Offs
Recently I decided that I needed a pair of simple denim cut-off shorts to help me enjoy the summer weather. But finding a pair I liked wasn’t so easy. I scoured thrift stores for the perfect pair before I finally realized I’d need to DIY (of course!). These are the shorts I started with: First […]
Outfit Post: Minty
She doesn’t know it, but I’m determined to make little Delicious here famous on the internet. The only problem is that she doesn’t seem to have any talents other than looking pretty cute. She isn’t obsessed with boxes (though she does like them), and she doesn’t eat any weird foods, but someday we’ll discover her […]
