These bohemian style spaces look so warm, inviting and inspiring; a place you could get really creative in and write some music, make some jewelry, crochet, paint, sketch, etc. I think this style mixes well with modern too which I love. -
wooden chairs

I've been writing this blog for about 4 months now. I have to say, I not only enjoy it but it's super helpful for me. I love a lot of things but I can never hardly ever nail down a decision when it comes to purchasing something for our home. I'm currently looking to buy a new side chair. I looked back at my blog and pinterest page for a little inspiration and noticed I had pinned or blogged about these chairs a kajillion times. Now which one... -
living with music

We live with music in our home. Five guitars, a piano and some smaller instruments. I'm looking for better ways to arrange them so they're easier to grab and play. I found some inspiring images around the web showing how people live with their instruments. -
gift wrapping
Read more →
Gosh, I am having the toughest time deciding on gift wrapping for the website. I have to buy in bulk so I need to really like it. I want the gift wrapping to be as special as the jewelry inside. There is just something about receiving a beautifully gift wrapped box. As you can see, I'm all over the place. The third image could be nice. Since I'm based in NY, I could use a snowy New York City scene for the holidays and change the vintage photo to fit each season. hmmm...

light instillations
Read more →
There is something magical and other worldly about a light instillation. I saw a couple of really great ones this year at David Zwirner gallery. I took my 6 year old son, Luca, to see LC 71 NY DZ 13 DW by Doug Wheeler and he loved it. We felt like we were walking on the moon. Unfortunately I missed the Madison Square public art project Scattered Light by Jim Campbell. What an awesome gift to the public. -

My beautiful, talented friend, Katherine, was kind enough to spend the day with me shooting different necklace layering ideas.Katherine happens to be a performer and has played the role of Marchesa in the new immersive theater show, “Queen of the Night” – read this great review from The New York Times.Look 1: triple sparkle ball necklace + coming soon long gem bar necklaceLook 2: ruby gem bar necklace + bar vertical necklace -

The Carol Burnett Show
I watched an awesome documentary series on PBS last night. The show was called Makers: Women in Comedy. It was one of a six-part series expanding on the critically acclaimed PBS documentary MAKERS: Women Who Make America. It was refreshing to hear stories and thoughts by women who have pioneered in their fields. My favorite as a young girl was Carol Burnett. I was absolutely addicted to The Carol Burnett Show. I remember watching it every day after school then returning the next day to practice contorting my face for friends just like Carol. I had zero inhibitions at that age. The women highlighted in this series overcame any fears they may have felt and rose to the top of their male dominated fields. Very inspiring and if I had a daughter, I would definitely watch it with her.
MAKERS Season 2 airs Tuesdays at 9:00 PM ET on PBS.

alt summitThanksgiving is approaching and it's my favorite holiday. Every year my parents come into town, the boys go to the parade and family and friends join us for Thanksgiving dinner. I love the simplicity of this holiday. On the other hand, it also happens to be our busiest time of the year. On November 20th, I begin selling my jewelry at the Union Square Holiday Market, which I absolutely love, but it leaves me little time to prepare for Thanksgiving. So I plan ahead so I can enjoy my favorite holiday with my favorite people. For a little Thanksgiving inspiration, I found these beautiful place settings and table settings around the web.Follow my blog with Bloglovin -

love that party
camille stylesI am working on offering gift wrapping through the website but I haven't quite nailed it down yet. It will definitely be simple with a handmade feel. The sprig of rosemary could be cute for the holidays.
