Delicious Jewelry: VentoNaPraia



It doesn't get more summery than Etsy designer VentoNaPraia's delicious fruit slice jewelry. Choose between an orange, kiwi, or pineapple. The items are made of rubber and look incredible realistic, not to mention yummy.

The Labels Project: Luca Pizzaroni



As part of visual artist Luca Pizzaroni's Labels Project, he's photographed a series of made-in tags on the inside of clothing. The collection is a unique look at where our clothing comes from, as well as a showcase of design in unsuspecting places. I'm often quick to cut these tags out of my clothing, occasionally preserving one here or there if it's a vintage item. I'll definitely be paying closer attention in the future.

Scrabble Charm Necklace on Etsy



As Laura from Quirkology and I are currently engaged in a head to head Scrabulous battle (by head to head I mean she's completely kicking my butt) I couldn't help but love this Scrabble inspired charm on Etsy. The Scrabble Piece Initial Charm is by Heist Jewerly and hand cut in sterling silver.

The Virtual Shoe Museum






The Virtual Shoe Museum is just what the title suggests, an online museum of shoes. The project was started back in 2004 by Liza Snook. You can browse collections by a number of categories including designer, color, style, and material. I have to admit, I'm not really a shoe-girl. Regardless of that fact, I couldn't help but find this fascinating!
