MooCow, Hats, and Clips

I had a lovely suprise today.

The lovely Maisy (well-know from the UK thread on etsy) bought MooCow a pair of my hair bobbies.

And here they are on one on Moo's lovely hats, and Moo very kindly mentions me and links to my shop.
Well three lovelies in such a short post...but they are all lovely!

AliBali Jewellery

And now for something completely different..from hats that is (see my last post). But still gorgeous.
Alison of AliBaliJewellery designs and handcrafts most of her sublimely beautiful jewellery using recycled silver and copper. The Little Robin Redbreast Silver Pendant above is so sweet that I had to start with him.

I need a hat, you need a hat,everyone needs a hat.

Velvet Cloche Hat
Let's face it the weather outside isn't great. It is raining or cold and mostly both. But we do have to go outside and wouldn't it be luverly to not only be dry and warm but also look gorgeous?
All the hats here are available in MoaningMinnie's etsy shop.

IslayBowers - button lust and more..much more


I love buttons and I love lace and I love vintage . So Islay Bowers etsy store is the perfect shop for me and I suspect you.

The buttons above are vintage mother of pearl. They just sing out (in a Cole Porter type refrain) glamour.
Also look at this pretty vintage 1930s lace.


Honestly you need to go and have a look in her store because there is more to see.
And then pop over to this store which is Islay's handmade items including this Personalised Applique Letter cushion.
