N.E.E.T. Handmade – Cursive Design
Wednesday, November 17th, 2010It’s Mallory from Where the Lovely Things Are again, and for today’s dose of handmade goodness I have some jewelry from the wonderful Cursive Design.
Sarah Fox does a fantastic job designing her line, because each and every piece is calling to me through my computer screen. The fact that I’m in the midst of a self-imposed jewelry-buying-ban is the only thing that keeps me from giving in to their call and buying about five things…
N.E.E.T. Handmade – H o u n d
Monday, November 15th, 2010Hi, it’s Mallory from Where the Lovely Things Are! Today I’d like to share some looks from the latest H o u n d collection with you.
Jennifer Beeman is the Chicago-based designer behind H o u n d, and I love the little details she imbues every piece with. I’m crazy about the button-up backs… the cape… everything, really. Everything!
If you like what you see, you should also check out Jennfier’s blog, where you’ll find some behind the scenes posts about the collection.

Thursday, October 14th, 2010Hi N.E.E.T. blog readers – it’s Mallory with some Handmade finds for you.
