THE WRAP: When I was in Los Angeles a few weeks ago, browsing the shops on Robertson Blvd. with my friend John, I discovered the POP Phone at Kitson, and it was love at first sight. I purchased the “Retro” handset in red, mainly because I thought it looked pretty swell with my new custom iPhone case from Gelaskins. It feels just like the phones I used when I was young, but it’s more comfortable to have resting on my shoulder due to the soft touch paint treatment! The speaker and microphone work beautifully, and the pickup/hangup button means that I don’t have to struggle with my mobile while accepting or disconnecting calls. Best of all, the POP phone eliminates over 99% of absorbed phone radiation! ❀❀❀❀❀ (out of 5).

When my mum was visiting over Thanksgiving, she brought some of her cookies for me to photograph. She also brought a few examples of her latest project, gorgeous one-of-a-kind Christmas tree ornaments! She makes these using the same molds she uses for her cookies, but these ornaments are made with a lightweight permanent dough that is perfect for these ornaments, which she then hand paints and embellishes.
They are each so charming, and I just fell in love with this castle scene! These are a few of my favorites, but there are many different styles to choose from. Wouldn’t these make lovely gifts for friends or coworkers this holiday season?

I told you about the line here, and Brenda shared her favorite holiday tradition with us here.
Earlier this week, {lovah} and got to spend an evening with Brenda and her husband, and Brenda brought me a whole bag full of amazing goodies from the collection. While they are actually scrapbooking supplies, I have a few other ideas in my noggin for incorporating these lovelies into wedding decor. I’ll share the results in April!
In the meantime, go enter her giveaway!
Brand-new collection for K&Company by Brenda Walton (a personal friend and artistic hero!), called “Flora & Fauna.” Brenda calls it “…Victorian style collage with a twist, inspired by my love of birds, florals and fanciful gardens.” If you could see Brenda’s backyard garden, you’d understand the source of her inspiration. As I too love florals and fanciful gardens, I’m just smitten with this stunning new line!
Brenda shares a tutorial for making fabric flowers using the “fabric art” piece from her collection over on her blog!
