Romantic bracelets and my charm in Elle Decoration...

Today something new: bracelets with petite charms and beautiful laces. I like them very much because I love romantic style and one of a kind pieces. I have more ideas than time to make them... But I believe in 'small steps' and hope to share with you many lovely creations in the future. Bracelets are result of my cooperation with excellent artist and wonderful woman Li. I hope for more such experiences!
And a great news: my charm Dream is recommended by Elle Decoration as an exclusive classic gadget. So nice!
If you are interested in bracelets - MAIL me please.
Warm hugs from full of snow Warsaw to all of you!

Helloween? Yes, but not in orange & black!

Here in Poland we have no tradition of Hellowen (we celebrate another holiday in the same time). And I'm not a fan of black & orange palette.... But I wanted something what may reminds of Helloween but may be also funny gift during the whole year. I wanted mix: scary theme, chic details, shabby colors and large dose of fun. I hope you like these charms....

In my creation I used black skeleton from great Graphics Fairy.
