Leather mask maker Tom Banwell
As my favorite holiday—Halloween—draws ever nearer, I thought I'd share some of my favorite masks created by Tom Banwell Designs. I love these because they are made of leather and will last a lifetime.
le animalé
How cute are these handmade animal totems at le animalé?
New collages - masquerade and blue girl
The two newest original collages: masquerade and blue girl. There was a vial of German glass glitter in green that was begging to be used so it finally found a home on masquerade. Both pieces are in the Charming Ink Etsy shop should you fancy them.
Jenn Ski Placemats
Want. These. Eco-friendly placemats by decorator/illustrator Jenn Ski have a great mid-century modern vibe and would look great in my dining room. Seriously. You can get a set of 4 for $29 in her Esty shop.
Ruby slippers bookmark
Remember the famous scene in the Wizard of Oz when where the Wicked Witch of the East's legs are protuding from the house that landed on her? Well now you can recreate this with a handmade ruby slippers bookmark from Olena Mysnk's Etsy shop, MyBookmark.
iTypewriter
Now this is a interesting solution to typing on an iPad though it does negate the portability of said device. The iTypewriter presses rubber-footed hammers against the glass. The creation was made by Austin Yang who likes to "renovate" vintage equipment for modern use.
