Look at me now, world!

I finally made it to Boing Boing!

Cory Doctrow likes me, he really likes me!

Pacman loves Onyx

I've thought about making this ring forever and day.

And now.

It's here.

Coral Earrings

How do we like these little diddies?

By Our Hands We Live

So, recently, I've noticed how disgusting my hands are becoming. But in a good way! I'm getting cuts and scabs and calluses and burns and I'm loving every minute of it. It made me want to see other artists' hands! Thus, "By Our Hands We Live" was born.

So I'm setting a date: December 10th. Send me your dirty, creative, bleeding-after-a-long-day-of-making-things hands, and I will post them all on December 10th with your name and a link to your website. What could be better? I'll get the ball rolling:

Send them on over!! Pfeffer.rachel @ Gmail.com.

Can't wait to see them!

making things!

Well, kiddos, it's not only Monday, but it's CYBER Monday, so here's to being busy! Off to the shop to make some orders and hopefully design some new fangled earrings I'm excited about...will have pictures later today! In the mean time, (haha mean time. Like an angry clock?) think about how dignified you'd be if you had these Whiskey Stones. Throw them in the freezer, put them in your drink, and it won't get diluted!! Plus offering someone a whiskey stones sounds pretttty cool.

What do I get B?

I realize that in other blogs, gals often call their significant others by their first initials. I like that. From now on, Ben will be called B.

So, what do I get B for the holidays?

He likes writing. And traveling. And distinguished things, like pocket watches. But I already gave him a pocket watch.
And I already gave him a Bullet Buddy.

I even gave him a pillowcase with my face on it:

(That's B under the pillow).

So, readers, suggestions?

Gimmel All Your Lovin'

The previous Hanukkah post put me in the mood. So I made this.

I must give Ben credit for coming up with the glorious pun. Ben, I thank thee.

Hannukaahnahchkanua

My friend and old roommate, Rachel (one of the three), is in a band called the Bachelorettes, based out of Jackson, MI. They all wear wigs and sing fun 60's girl pop kind of music. They put together a Hannukah compliation that comes with goodies like a dreidel, tattoos, mini zine and more! What could be better?

Order it here. Sooo yeah. Listen to them here.

My favorite song is Ballad of Lou and Mona.

New biddies!

See them in the shop!

Monday.

You know, I don't mind Mondays.

Soon I'm going off toPilatEEZE (eztra easy pilates, probably full of old people).


I'll let you know how it goes.

Stockings...

...on trees!

Pants I bought.

The skinny black pant search has come to an end! Serena jeans by Mavi.


No, no, I'm not that skinny. and i dont have those little flats.

I do, however, have sparkly silver shoes, an oversized grey sweater, and a whole lot of gumption. That's got to be worth something.

i don't like my dog that much..

have you seen commercials for the pet snuggie? wouldn't it just covered in dog pee and poo? do dogs even get cold?

They're baaack.

Yep! It's that time of year again. Get your loved one (or enemy, I don't care), a one of a kind, handmade stash warmer! You choose the fleece color, and the stash style, and bada bing bada boom, it will be in your hands post haste.

Some happy customers, including myself:

NIMH

Remember Secrets of NIMH? It's on the cartoon channel right now. Don't judge, I'm waiting for coffee to brew. Coffee is a grown up thing. And I'm stalling because my dad is waiting for me to help clean the windows and paint the porch. Can you blame a girl?

Anyway, NIMH. I don't remember much about it, but I remember being scared. Fun Wikipedia fact: "a 1982 animated film adaptation of the Newbery Medal-winning book Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH (Mrs. Frisby's name is changed to "Brisby" in the film due to trademark concerns with Frisbee discs.)

Hm. Those mice look awfully like the mice from An American Tale.

Anyway, enjoy your sunday!! Especially if you are watching NIMH right now.

In the market for...

...pants. Black tapered pants? Can I say tapered?

My sparkle Toms came today, and all I can think about is wearing them with skinny black slacks.

can i say slacks?

Ugh. if i could draw, i'd draw a picture.

UPDATE:

can i buy these despite their hideous name? Mossimo Black Sateen Skinny Pants

Sateen?

Oooh these these!!
Charolette Ronson

They are only $134. And it's a steal, really, because they used to be over $200!!

It's settled. I'll get the Sateen.

Twirly delights

i just took a new picture of this oldie but goodie. i like it.

Mi-Del Honey Grahams: Not a requirement

I repeat. Not a requirement.

Unless you like strangely salty, cardboard-like graham crackers. Ick.

Verdict: too healthy.
