Get to Know These Creative Bloggers

From time to time, you may notice a plug here for the Creative Bloggers blog ring. This great group of warm, supportive artisans and fellow creative types is all about paying it forward and promoting one another through blogging.

Every two weeks, two members of our group are selected for features. Although I usually like to devote a post to each of the featured bloggers, I'm running a bit behind this cycle. I do want to take a moment, though, to drop their links and tell you a little about what they do.


First is Michelle of Michabella Creations. I featured her darling sparrow earrings here in March. Michabella is the collaborative effort of two longtime friends. Together they create simple, pretty, nature-inspired jewelry incorporating Swarovski crystals, semi-precious gemstones, pearls, silver, brass, wood, and glass.

And in the "Great Mom Blogs" category, I'm pleased to introduce Brittany of The Greer 5. This sharp-witted mama will keep you laughing with her tales of motherhood and homemaking and rants on such hot topics as HOA nasty-grams and school pick-up car lines.

Please take a moment to check out these great gals and, if you wouldn't mind, leave some comment love. Good karma, you know.

I Want It

While strolling through the gallery of fellow "creative blogger," mezz of mezzG Creations, I stumbled upon this pair of appealingly asymmetrical silver bangles and simply had to share. Quirkily striking and decidedly unfussy, these bracelets make my heart go pitter-patter.

Stroll through the mezzG gallery yourself to see everything this one-of-a-kind artisan has to offer. And be sure to check out mezz's blog while you're at it!

TiLT Creations is nothing if not original. This little handpainted foldover clutch is no exception. So simple, it's almost like I could make it myself... only mine wouldn't be this cute... at all... since I can't sew... or paint. I absolutely love it!

Get it here (and on sale, no less!). And be sure to check out Theresa's blog for more TiLT Creations happenings.

I Really REALLY Want It

How adorable is this illustration by Chichiboulie?!? I want to fill my little girl's room with them! Vibrant colors, rich and joyful characters, and lovely themes - I could find a home for just about everything in the entire boutique!

Get this one here. And be sure to check out the "Boulie Blog" here.

My daughter's recent "Fancy Day" must have put me into a dressed-up state of mind because these gorgeous dangly earrings by Hilary of 57 Design Studio are really calling my name. Are you feeling it? Little black dress, strappy heels?
