Posy Twist Ring from Alex Monroe


I seem to be in quite a whimsical mood these days, but I couldn't overlook this beautiful ring from Alex Monroe.  Posies made from silver and blue topaz stones adorn a finely crafted "twist" band.  This lovely ring is a must for my holiday wish list.

Japanese Porcelain Bead Dangles from Fancypop


I've been trying to make more simple earrings lately. Intricate stuff are nice, yes, but I've been trying to diversify I suppose. I don't want to be a one trick pony! More stuff doesn't necessarily mean it looks better.

I'm quite pleased with how this pair turned out. I've had these Japanese floral porcelain beads forever and finally I got to use them. I chose some pretty colors from my swarovski pearl collection and voila! Big fan of using my gold-filled findings too, the colors go perfectly with the gold detail on the porcelain bead!

Silver Gold Tanzanite Bangle from AlphabettiSpaghetti



It was delightful to find such a beautiful bangle today as I was searching Etsy.  Made from sterling silver, 9k gold and tanzanite, anyone would be happy to be gifted with such a gorgeous piece!

Freshwater Pearl Snowman Necklace from Dance With Silver


22 days until Christmas! Item #3.

Awww.... this is so cute. The little snowman has a hat and a scarf to keep him warm (even though I guess it's a bad thing for him to keep warm). What an adorable little necklace made with 99.9% pure silver and freshwater pearls.
@ Dance With Silver ($45 US)

Grey Winter Coat from The Emporium


Warm coat for the winter! I love how the shape of the sleeves, how they get larger and come back a bit together for the cuffs. They have a few more colors on the website, but I always go for "bland" colors, I don't know why. Don't get me wrong, I do love color though!

Indian Red and Grey Hoodie from Aquagirl


I have no idea what you call this deep pinkish reddish color. I googled a color chart and "indian red" was the closest. Sometimes I feel like a guy where I only know colors in its most basic one word form. Anyway, I think this hoodie is cute. Not just your average grey hoodie! I love details on it. Very playful, and very winter.

Candy Cane Tea Cup Set from Designs by Takemoto

23 days until Christmas! Item #2.

Cute mini candy cane tea cup set! You can use it as decoration for your home, put some little treats in it, or you can drink hot cocoa or eggnog from it! Very cute!
@ Designs by Takemoto ($20 US)

Grey Popcorn Scarf from Delias


I just realized that this scarf would go really well with the Muji scarf that I just posted. It was seriously just a coincidence! Anyway, I really like this popcorn scarf! The website offers three more colors and they're all wonderful. Despite the coldness and the bad weather, winter is the most fun because you can wear so many layers and accessories! This scarf would definitely be a great accessory for winter!
@ Delias ($22.50 US)

Pretty Blush Bracelet from Topshop


I love bracelet sets like this one! All of my favorite components, lace, pearl and crystal details. I really like how the lace is strung through the heart bracelet.
@ Topshop (£16.00)

Jewelled Mirror Charm Necklace from Fancypop


I had so much fun making this charm! I bought the mirror charm from Japan, and decided to glue a whole bunch of beautiful beads onto it! Pearls, seed beads, glass drop beads, and even swarovski crystals! I am very happy with the outcome! I added an extra swarovski pearl on the necklace to finish it off.

I think I'm going to make another one and give it to Meg too, because I love her so. Aww...friendship.
@ Fancy pop ($22 US)

Black Winter Pattern Mittens from SM2


These mittens look so warm! Mittens are a must-have to survive winter! Although gloves are more practical, I've always been a bigger fan of mittens. One time, I went into a restaurant, and they asked me "How many people?" and I raised my hand up with three fingers to indicate three people but my mittens were still on, so that was kind of embarrassing. Despite that, mittens > gloves!

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer Amigurumi from Moon's Creations


24 days until Christmas! Item #1.

I'm going to try to post one cute handmade Christmas item that I find on Etsy everyday. So to kick off the special Christmas posts, are these little cute bunnies in disguise as reindeers! I don't even need to talk about how adorable they are, the picture speaks for itself. Even better, this product is vegan friendly!

Pleats and Thank You Dress from Mod Cloth


Mod Cloth really does have the cutest clothes ever. The pleats are all done perfectly, and the two colors go so well together.It's hard to see, but the white ribbon on the pleats actually come together into a bow in the front! How adorable is that?  Makes me want to have tea time with my friends.
