Black and brown, with some raspberry

I was seeing someone — or we were already "together", I'm not sure, but I'm certain that it doesn't matter — when I bought this 5cm beanie. It must have been around the time this blog was about to celebrate it's first year. In any case, I really should find other ways to mark my days.




Like getting a free scoop of raspberry cheesecake yogurt from Golden Spoon, which I of course topped with blackberries and strawberries. Since today marks the day when Trish and I managed to fill out our coupon. Diet be damned!




A berry good way, I must say, to ease off stress from work and to highlight something relatively new with my outfit. Of course, one other reason I'm wearing this beanie is that my hair is getting unruly and I'm just too lazy to pay the barber a visit.

Hinge and bobbin hardware necklace: a variation

Met up with my friend Johanna last Friday to show her the black pearl and onyx necklace. (Just sold her today — my very first sale! — the longer version with obsidian I wore last Saturday. More on this in another post...) That day, I wore a single-stranded edition of the bobbin and hinge necklace I made earlier — which incidentally, another friend has already reserved.

Decided to wear the necklace with a monochromatic get-up for the steel to stand out.




This is how it looks up close, but only after one modification that Jo (short for Johanna) suggested.




I closed two hinges and removed the topmost one — which was digging into my neck (ouch!).

I am besides myself with this new venture — creating new pieces, modifying them for clients, and posting them as fast as I can. I promise to write about regular topics as soon as I launch the online site of Bosquejo accessories. In a few days I hope!




Again I wore the piece with another necklace. Here is the stainless steel chain with a bike pendant I intend to wear/sell with it.
