2011-07-07T00:14:00.004-07:00

Things were brighter in the '80s.

the original Star Wars was in theatres
(not to mention Tron and Bladerunner)
the Apple Macintosh was born
MJ and Madonna were dominating music
and oh, the video games!

So, without further ado,
the '80s sci-fi jewellery range!

dream come true

2011-04-08T01:51:00.000-07:00

today, my jewellery had it's vancouver debut!
in a shop called 'dream',
they got a nice little corner spot
next to some sea shells and gem stones.

they wiggled a bit and made themselves comfortable,

now they can work on their tan for a little while under the bright cabinet lights.

you can see them yourself at dream apparel, 311 w. cordova street, in gastown.

'naked hanger' earring

i work at the best boutique in town.

i love all designers the shop carries,

i love it when customers drop in to say "hi!"

i love humming along to sarah vaughan while stitching on buttons,

i love seeing someone walk out of change room with a glow on her face.

but when she leaves with a full shopping bag,

there's a naked hanger,

waiting for new clothes to wear.

mama cow is sooo eco-friendly!

she does not drive a car,

she shakes her head and says "MOo" to all the plastic bags,

and she is a dedicated vegan.

when her cousin moose came to visit last week, wearing a stylish 'tourist' pouch,
she knew she had to have one too!
but wait, is there a softer one as white as milk?

yes!

here it is:

in the great white north,

moose was getting a little tired of winter chills.

even though it was past ground hog day,
the weather forecast said it would snow, AGAIN...

he was big and furry, but even for a tough moose like him,

the thought of feeling a warm breeze and smelling green grass was just too appealing.

last week, he remembered his cousin-in-law, mama cow.

she just had a baby, he thought maybe it's time to pay a little visit in a green grassy land.

so he packed his credit card and a lot of quarters in his tourist pouch,

and boarded a canada rail train to vancouver.
