THINGS I LIKE We have seen so many good stuff in the indie community that it would be selfish to keep them secret.....so from now on we will have write-ups about indie artists whose works/products we adore. Please note that this is plainly our own initiative to promote indie, they are not sponsored features and the views expressed are entirely our opinion. (That's why these are called "Things I Like"!) So are you ready? Click on the Title in this para to get to the posts, or go to "The Parlour's Tags" on your RH column and click on the tag called "Things I Like" to see all posts on this topic. :)

Some More Fluttering

As I have mentioned, next to flowers I love butterflies best, and we have some new ones in our shop! From top left in clockwise direction:

1) Rainbow Flutter - A wafer thin red iridescent butterfly is the focus of this piece. Simply gorgoeus!

2) Blue Flutter - A delicate piece with a blue rhinestone studded butterfly charm focal, with polymer clay rose and swarovski crystals

3) Butterflies - Green enamel butterflies, a little swish-swish for your ears.

4) Pink Flutter - Sister of Blue Flutter in sweet pink.

See them all in my Etsy shop now!

Things I Like - SydneyAngel

During one of the days using the "Pounce" feature on Etsy I chanced upon an awesome shop from Down Under - SydneyAngel. The shop has the cutest iPhone/iPod/iTouch/Blackberry cases, handmade from colorful felt. An awesome find for you i-gadget/blackberry fans out there! As you can see in the pic above, there are cute adorable cases in animal characters that the girls will go ga-ga over, and others in gameboy form that our macho boys will love (a superb gift idea for the boys, ladies!). Go check out them out at http://sydneyangel.etsy.com/
Happy shopping!

Store Update - Sweet Damsel

If you have not been to our Etsy shop lately, it's probably a good time to do so. With Christmas just a month away and tons of parties to attend, we've got some lovely feminine newbies that will dress you up for your function and wow your audience.

1. Sigal (top) - Sigal is a hebrew name for violet or treasure, which is just so apt for our sweet precious piece here featuring a gorgeous flourite teardrop pendant.

2. Taisia (bottom left) - Named after the legendary Princess Taisie of Rathlin Island who was the most beautiful woman in the world. And supposedly with the most gorgeous BLUE eyes, which coincides with our main color theme in this piece.

3. Alyssa (bottom right) - This is a remake with some slight difference in the bead mix. The first piece was sold off at a bazaar before it could make it's way to our shop, so a remake is a must!

These aren't enough to tempt you? Then check these out:


1. Jaeda (top) - Asymmetrical piece with a pale green rose on filigree and freshwater pearls. Eye catching subtlety.

2. Rowana (bottom left) - A sweet yet sexy combination of red and black.

3. Rhoda (bottom right) - A remake in a cheery peachy color that will brighten up your attire.

For more details on the materials and measurements, just click on their titles and you will be taken directly the item listing. Don't wait, or the party will be over. It's time to dress up and boogie! See ya at my shop!

Store Update - New Charmed Blings

Some of my friends commented that I seem to have dropped off the radar, well the truth is I have been a really busy little bee crafting my heart out. It's true - just check out my Etsy shop and see the new stuff I've been adding. And let me introduce a few pieces here, belonging the the category of Charmed Blings, beginning from top left going clockwise:

1. Shopping Queen - The handbag is the most important accessory for the girl who loves to shop (me!), and hopefully of course the bag will always be full of $$$! The bag charm is hanging on a crown shaped toggle. Do visit my shop for a closer look.

2. Femme Fatale - This is a 3rd remake, I really love this theme! This piece also earned a feature spot in FallenPeach's blog (thank you!)

3. My Lovely Deer - This one is a long necklace. I had the deer in black and dusty pink, the black has been sold already, I've no doubt it will soon be this cute one's turn too!

4. The Queen - Another Her Majesty themed piece. The swarovski crystal brio sparkles like royalty

Do check out other new Charmed Blings in my Etsy shop! See you there!
