fine cell work

"Fine Cell Work is a social enterprise that teaches needlework to prison inmates and sells their products. The prisoners do the work when they are locked in their cells, and the earnings give them hope, skills and independence."

in the name of research

whilst i was genuinely doing work today i stumbled across this. someone got $1500 and wanna buy me this green agate skull from partners & spade?

the upside of being a "researcher" for an arts organisation means you find awesome stuff like this (i've got more to come) the downside is, working full time i don't have the opportunity to blog it on here. bear with.

feather me timbers

anyone who knows me knows how mad i am about all things feathery so i am extremely jealous of this little number, especially as its that lovely rust colour too.

this is a man's world

so my dissertation and another essay have been handed in so i have more time to peruse the internet. hurray! this post has been coming a while though, i just needed the time to compose it. the subject in question is my love for topman jewellery. anybody who knows me knows how fond i am of the stuff and it tends to be my jewellery that gets the most attention. its not that the designs are masculine, it's that they tend to be just a bit too feminine for men to wear (seriously look at the website now and ask yourself how many men you know who you could honestly say would wear the majority of the stuff). the benefit of this is that LOADS of the good stuff ends up in the sale. here's a few of my pieces;

now here are my current favourites from the website.
