A few favorite things

We've replenished a few favorite things as we get ready for the Fall season:

1. stop talking cards
2. whimsy sayings on colorful pagemarkers, bookmarks & wine bottle bags
3. letterpress postcards in a muslin bag
4. brand new item: Italian ceramic hand painted marbles
5. boxed sets of hand-dyed paper with letterpress images

A drawing by a Cursive customer...

A drawing done by Nancy, a Cursive customer, who was sharing with me her collection of sketch books she carries with her all the time.

Triple strand necklaces in bright contrasting colors and textures always catch my eye and this one happened to be on the neck of Julia, author of "All About the Pretty" blog, which I discovered completely by accident and is now one of my favs!

Details of Jeanine Payer bracelets

I enjoyed this woman's outfit: her hat made by a local designer, watch and bag fit the sunny day outside.

We have just received a GALORE of beautiful Jeanine Payer jewelry this evening. Stop by and enjoy it face-to-face!

I spotted this unusual piece of jewelry worn by a woman who came into Cursive this afternoon. It is designed by thorn.

Sneak peeks

I love creating collages of my personal photos, Cursive snapshots and also discovering them online.
I call them "sneak peeks".
I took a "snapshot" from Liberty of London's home page
