the colored crocheted jewelry of studiokarma


Yellow Brown Necklace With Large Crocheted Rings (detail) by StudioKarma.

I am always amazed by the beauty of felt or crocheted jewelry. There are a few extraordinary shops @ Etsy – you regularly find their items on the front page – and StudioKarma is one of those. Her necklaces are simply gorgeous.

They are OOAK, but you can ask for custom items anyway. I found this one below in the sold section, and it is one of my favorites :


Multicolored Nacklace With Various Crocheted Rings.


gold and silver jewelry line by groc


They Fit Together by groc.

I love the curvy shape of that ring. (Actually it is a set of two silver rings which you can wear together or separately).

Groc is a jewelry line made by Jimena Bolaños and Jordi Costa who live in Costa Rica and the collection is very beautiful and full of interesting or funny items. Besides Etsy you can see a gallery on their Flickr.


gorgeous handmade clutches by red ruby rose


Tree Rings, silk-lined clutch bag by Red Ruby Rose.

Rowena Dugdale @ Red Ruby Rose makes the most wonderful and gorgeous clutches. Her choice of fabrics is very sophisticated and the one above “tree Rings” is one of my favorites – it is lined in deep red silk – but I also love this silk starburst luxury clutch bag a lot. All of Red Ruby Rose’s creations are Limited Editions, but she loves custom orders, so if you are interested, just browse through the sold section of her shop to see if there is any fabric you like, providing it is still available she will make it for you…

Cowboy Hat for Blythe @ blissfullyshop.

Found this funny thing today, very sweet.

Available in 4 different colors (black, light brown, brown & white). Not “handmade” though, it is sold in the “supplies” category.

I can’t resist posting this other picture :

felt slippers by art.i.choke

Pink and brown pompon slippers by art.i.choke @ Etsy.

art.i.choke was founded in 2006 by Turkish designer Öykü Thurston in Istanbul. She had studied the art of felt-making in Zushi, Japan in Haruka Ichihara’s studio and then went on to graduate from the “Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising” in Los Angeles.

She uses the traditional techniques of felt-making to produce modern wearable items. Every piece is hand shaped and therefore unique. And you can find the collection @ Etsy.

I am not exactly into hats – except when it comes to Blythe dolls – and even less into shawls, but I really love those slippers. They come in different colors and even if I like the pink & green ones a lot, my favorites are really the pink & brown above. They are available in all sizes from 6 to 10.

I love the poetic feel of that necklace. It sold today, but I am posting it nevertheless because I had planned to and it is simply beautiful.
