A few of my favorite things.....

Accessories, a girls best friend! I don't think you can ever have enough bits and bobs to brighten your day!

I love little pieces of unique jewelry that make a statement. Why wear something ordinary when you can wear something so extra-ordinary as to be unforgettable.

This posting is about a few of the amazing statement pieces I have found in my Etsy travels. Each of the following 5 items is a truly unique piece of wearable art.


With the Christmas season right around the corner, why not add some of these delicious finds to your wish list?
