I absolutely love this DIY Leather Cuff found via 100 Layer Cake. It looks so easy to do and would be such a fun accessory to have on hand.

Good morning all! I have created this DIY tutorial on how to make a super cute and very easy Gingham & Pearl Necklace for you or that little gal in your life! This would be a really cute project to do at a little girl’s birthday party or you could make some and give them away as party favors and they cost less than $5 to make. My inspiration was the Stella and Dot little girls, Allie Pearl and Ribbon Necklace and I created the flower using the V and C DIY Flower Corsage Tutorial.


Hope everyone has a fabulous weekend filled with rest, relaxation and fun in the sun!
Cheers ~ Elizabeth

Once the necklace is complete you can embellish it to your liking. I created a flower with ribbon using the V and C DIY Flower Corsage Tutorial. Happy necklace making!

Angus and Celeste produce nothing less than pure objects of desire. The time and attention to detail involved in every object is amazing. The brilliance of the porcelain is luminous and the illustrations are irresistibly tactile. I hope you all enjoy these photos as much as I do. Which is your favorite? Would you dare to buy porcelain bracelets? They are to die for adorable but how do you keep from breaking them?!


Well, I’m off. What do you all have in store for this weekend?
Cheers! Elizabeth

I Made this… ROCKS! } http://to-be-charmed.com/2010/03/03/p-s-i-made-this-rocks/ http://to-be-charmed.com/2010/03/03/p-s-i-made-this-rocks/#comments Wed, 03 Mar 2010 08:06:51 +0000 Elizabeth http://to-be-charmed.com/?p=178 I wish could remember how I stumbled across this blog but OMG do I love, Erica Domesek’s blog, P.S. – I Made This…. Her moto: “I see it, I like it, I make it” reflects the belief that one can find inspiration anywhere and transform what one sees into something fabulous to wear, use, or admire.

So grab that cup of Joe or glass of wine and be inspiried!

P.S. I made this... Rhinestones

I love her creativity in finding simple objects, a piece of rope, a chain and turning it into something totally glamorous.


P.S. I made this... Summer Scarf

Okay seriously, right after I get done with this entry I'm raiding my closet to make this scarf!


P.S. I made this... Montage

Can I be honest here? I would have never thought to turn champagne corks into earrings... genius!

P.S. I made this... Tote Bag

Um, love this bag, wish she would post it on Etsy!

P.S. I made this... Tie Dye

P.S. I made this... You ROCK!

and this was just a tease… need more? Visit her site P.S. – I Made This… for more and let me know which re-creation was your favorite.

Her style is cheeky, whimsical and fun. She has a variety of items she offers from illustrations to jewelry to rub-ons. Here’s a glimpse into her Etsy store:

These rub-ons would be perfect for a hostess gift or a party favor for a little girls birthday party.

I love how she has the little girl running on water.
