Cool Jewels: Green Girl Studios’ Handmade Pewter Pendants and Charms
I’ve been in love with Green Girl Studios‘ whimsical handmade pewter pendants and beads ever since I found them back in 2008… and I’ve worn my Robin Head and Home Nest charms almost every day since then!
With limitless selection of cuddly woodland charms on their site it’s definitely hard to choose a favorite. The attention to detail is impeccable and, as a small family run business, it’s great to see that they still carve and cast everything themselves. They’re the perfect addition to any outfit and look adorable on colorful thin satin ribbon or cord. Great for gifts as well!
Check out their store here and my favorites out of their adorable designs below!

Another Day, Another Ripped Off Design…
“There have been loads of copycats since this series of admittedly simplistic t-shirt designs, created by Alyssa Zukas, first appeared at Urban Outfitters in 2007. Most of the biters were clever enough to change things a bit, but not this time. They even had the nerve to use the original Urban Outfitters product photography, AND Alyssa’s name, all over their site. The original tees have “Alyssa Zukas” and a bio screenprinted into the inner neck tag area, along with Urban’s made-up store brand “Spark in the Dark.”
Yes, that’s right… my shirts have been jacked once again! Check out the “you thought we wouldn’t notice” post to see the whole article including comparison shots and get the word out there about crappy counterfeiting!

Before and After Owl Wall Plaque On Design*Sponge!
Thanks to Design*Sponge for posting about my Before and After owl parts!
… their readers’ verdict on my redo: CREEPY! And I kinda have to agree… Frames are some of the most uninteresting and bland things out there these days so I’m always looking for new ways to show off artwork and prints. Plus, the owl parts have such a big kitsch-factor that I don’t think there’s anything I could to make them not look creepy.
Plus, what’s better than a pair of glossy owl eyes following your every move? I’d say not much!
Look familiar? Strange, I didn’t think I worked with Kmart. (Counterfeit / ripoff alert)
Say what you will about Kmart… I didn’t think they’d stoop this low. Friends of mine were there earlier today and gave me a call to let me know that a t-shirt they saw there looked very similar to the Heart Tee I did as part of my Urban Outfitters artist series tees in 2008. A quick online search later, and lookie here… a bit familiar, dontcha think?
And some more that may have been… oh… lightly “inspired by” my original designs:
I guess imitation is the highest form of flattery and yadda yadda. On the bright side, it looks like my stuff has caught on so much that big-box stores want their little piece of the action. But I’ll be honest with you—it’s not like I’m making bank on my designs… I still rely on every single item I sell to make ends meet.
What do you think… outright theft? Or [gag]… fair use? Sound off in the comments. I’m pretty P’ed-O and I could use some moral support.
