Dippity Do!

Right now I am loving all the wonderful Spring colours that are popping up, both pastels & neons and I'm happy to say (this IS coming from a "WHITE SPACE" lover don't forget), that I'm finally embracing colour people!  I will be definitely adding some of these gorgeous hues around my home and in my life♥.  If you've already made that step and aren't afraid of colour, I applaud you...Yay!!  For me, I'm just dipping my toes in it for starters (not literally)...I'm talking about this current obsession of mine-the dipped paint kind!  It's a great place to start for chickens like myself, lol...Don't judge me!  Dipped spoons, cups, furniture, fabric & even jewelry...the possibilities are endless-take a look!

What would you dip?

If only my closet will look like this when I'm done...sigh...

  As you know, I am working on my closet makeover right now.  I definitely needed a bit of help in the wardrobe organization department...gulp, yup I did.  With hoards (get it?), of articles & how to's out there, I came upon the lovely ladies of The Closetnista.  I hit the jackpot!  It was like the universe answered my exact questions and issues that I had had and a huge weight felt like it had been lifted.  Yippee!  

I love their steps on how to organize, and they couldn't be simpler~and I LOVE simple!  Anyone can do this!  Click on the video below for their great tips and tricks they share with their readers.  

Additional tips from Tara & Liz:

1. Don't put your suits together.  Hang the pieces separately so you can actually get use out of all the pieces.

2. Hanging necklaces & bracelets as art on the wall can free up space in the actual closet, keeping it clutter free and looking pretty.  

3. Lighting.  Use soft lighting, not harsh fluorescent bulbs which really will illuminate the things you probably don't want to.  


4. Hang a floor length mirror or lean it up against the wall so you check yourself and look your best before leaving the house.  You don't want to put on that skirt inside out!  

Be sure to check out The Closetnista website for all their great advice.  You'll be glad you did!

Fabulous Friday Find

I couldn't be happier Friday is finally here...how about you?  Seems like some weeks are definitely longer than others, and this week has been one of them.  With Valentine's Day right around the corner, today I am sharing something that is quite unique and different than what I normally post, but that's OK..it's GOOD to be different in my books!  

Jook & Nona have THE most original jewelry I have come across.  So much so that even celebrities have discovered these gorgeous one of a kind pieces.  Beautiful handmade, necklaces, rings, earrings, cuff links & bracelets, each with your own fingerprint. Yes, I said fingerprint...pinky print to be exact.  You can't get much more personal in my opinion...(and if you ever lost it~which we hope you don't~there's no question when it comes to identifying it!).  

Shir Micheals' passion for art started at an early age and blossomed into a creative expression of love, after her long time boyfriend proposed. (Very Valentine's Day appropriate right?)! You can read more about this love story of how the business started here. 

Each piece is custom made, and carefully handcrafted.  The whole process begins with the the impression kit.  The will ship it within one week of your online order and once they have received your impression back (prepaid shipping btw!), the crafting begins and is cast in your choice of metal.   Ahem...I hope my special someone is listening:) Check out some of the beautiful pieces:

Bracelets

Cufflinks

Necklaces

Earrings

Rings

These would definitely make a really special gift for anytime, anyone, anywhere. 


Happy Friday!
