It was in a priority mail box, so I though It would be very simple, but then I opened the box, there was an another box with a lovely red ribbon.
Inside was all padded and my new jewelries were perfectly secured. I didn’t really realize until I opened the box but the color of the horse and the acorns are matching and I really like the fact!
The red horse, they had 4 colors; black, brown, red brown and red. I picked a red one because it goes with from dark to light colors.
The acorn necklace, this is Bakelite reproduction. The leaves are plastic but the acorns are made of wood! It actually makes the necklace much better than just plastic; the warmth and the gloss of wood would suit for autumn and winter wonderfully.
This was actually one of my very first Etsy purchases which arrived first yesterday. Etsy is wonderful; I got a notification right after the package arrived in my mail box!! I lost my package the other day and I was very anxious, so I was so moved by this little thing which happened to me.
The package was so lovely, the butterfly is not just a print or stamp, but it’s cut out from a paper and glued!
The necklace was in a green tin can with a handwriting thank you memo.
This is 40′s vintage Bakelite inspired necklace. I don’t mind to won reproduces or something inspired by the vintage goods as long as it is in a fantastic quality. And this is one which is amazing, definitely eye catching and great for summer!!
I am so in love with this necklace. I’m wearing it as writing this post ;)
At Medicine Park, there’s an Indian jewelry shop and I fell in love with these fabulous ladies. I couldn’t choose which one to take, the Mediterranean coral sets or the pair of turquoise earring…
I have been attracted by Indian jewelries for a long time. I don’t know why, but maybe I lived here once, a long time ago.
Medicine Parkで インディアンアクセサリーのお店に出会い, 運命の出会いをしました。地中海コーラルかターコイズか, 迷って決められずどちらもお迎えしました。
Several months ago, a fan on the dw_cosplay community list on Livejournal had the opportunity to speak to Louise Paige, the costume designer for the Tennant era of Doctor Who. One of many questions they asked her was the origin of Martha’s iconic necklace that she wears in almost every episode where she appears. When she responded that it had been handmade by an artisan who has since disappeared, this idea was born. From pretty much that day, I started saving and staring at pictures of Martha’s necklace to see if I was up to creating a replica. (Since she’s my favorite new series companion, this was not a hardship. ;-) ) I finished a prototype version in time for Gallifrey One, but missed getting in on the art show, so while I showed them to a few people, I didn’t sell any. Just as well, because this is a work in progress: every time I think I’m happy with it, I notice a new detail I want to refine. ;-) This version is the closest I’ve gotten yet, and I’m pleased enough with it to put it up for sale. We’ll see if the next one I make ends up being the same or slightly edited. :-)
The hardest part of the design was finding the center charm, which–as near as I can tell from the pictures–appears to be a small slide pendant with a scalloped diamond or inverted scallop shell shape. This was the closest I could find, but I think it reads gorgeously, so, while I’m still on the hunt for something closer, if I don’t find it I’ll definitely keep working with this. :-)
