These are a few of my favorite things from the past week that I wanted to share with you!

I had a wonderful time last week visiting the Museum of the Moving Image. They have a wonderful area on the top floor to make stop motion animations it was so much fun we didn’t want to leave! If you are in the Long Island City area I suggest taking a trip to visit, on Fridays it is also free after 4:00pm.

The Queen of Spades ring is a new design made from sterling silver that has been antiqued.  The original design was created from a beautiful vintage piece of lace I had found and recreated in wax.  There is another version of this, which I will post soon, it is called the Queen of Hearts it is very similar, but it has a double row of hearts.

The Edward Steichan Photograph of Gloria Swanson is a personal favorite of mine and I hope you enjoy it too!

I was so excited to find this beautiful package from Sweden sitting at my doorstep yesterday. One of my talented customers sent a beautiful shawl she made and it is just stunning! The intricate pattern she used is from a Scottish designer, Ysolda you can view her website here. The yarn she used is 100% wool and is from a Swedish company fargkraft. It was such a wonderful surprise that I wanted to share it with you! Hope you are having a wonderful day here in New York City it is sunny and there are still a few leaves on the trees. It is the perfect day for a nice long walk before the winter arrives. We had a fun photoshoot yesterday that I will begin posting soon.

I was just blown away by this amazing video by one of my favorite bands Beirut. The video was filmed throughout Brooklyn. You can view it for one week at Pitchfork.tv. It is also available to purchase here. I just ordered mine!
