Yvonne Koné

who would have thought plumbing hardware could be so chic? inspired by Yvonne Koné, these gold hardware bracelets are fun to wear and even more fun to make. after figuring out some technicalities with my very temperamental sewing machine (we definitely have a love hate relationship) it only took me about 30 minutes to complete this. try it! i dare ya.

you'll need:
1. sewing machine
2. plumbing hardware courtesy of your local home depot.
3. leather material cut into thin strips

Mr. Green

as a kid, my favorite board game wasn't Candyland, Monopoly or Operation, oh no, it was Clue. and if you've ever played the game you'd know that the point of the game is to play detective and guess who the murderer is. there are a total of six suspects to choose from, and of all the suspects, i always secretively wished that Mr. Green would be the dirty-doer. for the very simple reason that he gave me the heeby jeebies AND the willies. so i guess you could say that Green has never sat too well with me.

now fast forward ten years and one change of heart later, i am officially drawn to everything green (in that kid in the toy store kindda way). i mean seriously, food/candy/fruit/jewelry... you name it, i'm probably into it. so last weekend when i spotted this green handmade necklace with pedal shapes and kiwi inspired patterns it was pretty much a done deal.
