New Products at Yummy & Company, Marian Ruth, and Mineral Love
Jennifer of Yummy & Company is always exploring new ways to showcase her art of making chic jewelry. For Fall 2011, she experimented with hair pins and I brought one of them at Artscape 2011. For Spring/Summer 2012, she has two collections: Timeless Collection and Field Notes Collection.
Guess what, some of her jewelry is now available at the Fells Point jewelry shop, .925 The Silver Shop.

A Fun DIY from Kolleen of Design by Night
I was at a Junior League of Baltimore event the first time I met Kolleen Kilduff. Her line of handmade feather and flower accessories are perfect for special occasions or every day wear. One of the things I love about Kolleen’s blog is that she always inspires her reader’s to get crafty with her easy to follow DIY project.
