Give a little guilt with your next library loan-out

Letterpress Bookplates from Paper Monkey PressIs your personal book collection starting to dwindle from all the loan-outs you've been giving your friends?

These Letterpress Bookplates from Paper Monkey Press are a classy way to practice the subtle art of the guilt trip.

Printed in a brown, soy-based ink on archival paper, these bookplates have a space to handwrite your name, and can be easily glued into your most cherished hard covers to remind your pals that, while they are welcomed to enjoy the story within those covers, they had better get that book back to you as soon as they have finished, lest you thump them upside the head with it.

See…didn't I tell you? Classy!

Dance away the winter blues with original art prints

This bold black & white print will have you longing for spring!

Dragonfly Garden print from crookedlittlestudioI hate to admit it, but we had it good here in Canada last winter. While we were able to get by with just a spring jacket last year, this year we have have record snowfalls!

As I dream every night of waking up to green grass and blooming flowers, my imaginings look similar to this Dragonfly Garden print by crookedlittlestudio.

While I am more partial to butterflies, this 8X10 print is equally charming, with all its swirling vines and gently swaying flowers.

If you want something a little brighter, there is also a stunning color version of this print - but the black & white lines and curlicues totally make a statement, and will have you longing for spring just as much as I am!

Designer Spotlight – Jewelry from Nala Girl Inspired will inspire you with naturally opulent style.

Ocean Jasper And Ceramic Pendant Necklace from Nala Girl InspiredIndie jewelry shop Nala Girl Inspired creates inventive jewelry that is genuinely inspiring.  

With whispers of nature spelled out in wood, leather, shell and stone, Designer Debbie Christianson draws influence from natural elements. 

Her discoveries are translated into jewelry that both highlights the personality of nature as well as accentuates the natural beauty of the person wearing each piece.

Perhaps it is because I am a water sign that I am so in love with this Ocean Jasper And Ceramic Pendant Necklace

The rustic green glaze of the pendant ages it just enough, while still allowing the bronzed swirl pattern to blaze through, and the ocean jasper chips in earth tones reflect the colors of the pendant perfectly.

Prefer something a little more bold?  This Labradorite and Pearl Bracelet echo rock and ocean, with faceted labradorite stones and milky freshwater pearls.

If you want to inspire and be inspired by your jewelry, Nala Girl Inspired does so with naturally opulent style.
