Oh so unique handmade resin bracelets
Aren’t these bracelets to-die-for? They’re so bright and cheery and oh so unique! Designed by Orna Lalo from Israel, these are made from resins and other components which are individually molded and colored, and then hand assembled by women in the local villages surrounding the factory in Bulgaria.
Marketed globally under Lalo Treasures, Orna’s collections also include necklaces, pendants, earrings, rings, keychains and many more. According to Orna, she wants her colorful creations to smile at you and make you feel good. I’m quite sure they do just that!
And thank goodness items under Lalo Treasures are available internationally.

Brillant art lamps to brighten all corners
I was searching for more Artbox stationery when I came artbox lamps using these creative designs from Artbox Project. They look great the way they’re designed and I would imagine they’ll look even more brilliant when they’re lighted!
Besides these that I’ve featured, you can find plenty of designs at the online store with works from over 20 designers to choose from. Some of my favorites are those from Vacide Erda-Zimic, Tracy Mcguiness-Kelly, Fhiona Galloway and Ann Ellis.
Each artbox lamp which cost US$45 measures 8” by 8” square, 3 inches deep, and comes with plug and switch. In addition, a gift box and a 15 watt light bulb is included. You can hang it on a wall or place it on shelf or a night table. I would think they make great lamps to brighten up just about any rooms or corners because they’re totally brilliant!
Artbox Project ships internationally.

Decorate with soft rubbery PakNak Charms
These are called 3D PakNak Charms, described as soft and rubbery that will go on easy and come off quickly with Velcro. Aren’t they sweet? Although they’re mainly said to decorate bags and backpacks, they can be attached to any surface, which means, they can just go anywhere!
At just US$3.99, there are quite a good selection to pick from, whether you want it for your kid or for yourself; from flowers and flurries, critters and crawlies, to yummies for tummies. I like Birdy-Birdy which is said to start each day with a visit to Sola in the garden before heading over to Sprinkles’ bakery to plan out the latest fashions in cupcake design. What a cool bird!
The good folks at PakNak don’t say if they ship internationally but I believe arrangements can be made since these look so light. Anyway if you’re keen, just send an email to sales@paknak.com to find out.

Handmade aprons with cute pocket designs
I found images of these at Flickr, which in turn led me to Snappy Shop that is selling these cute handmade aprons. Wow, for someone who doesn’t enjoy cooking very much, I must say these are inspiring and make me want to step into the kitchen with them.
What’s appealing about these aprons are the cute pocket designs - flower pot, good morning, flirty salad, red toaster, sweet bee, burger and fries - which are big enough to hold your keys, i-pod, cell phone or any good luck charms you may need to keep handy while doing your chores.
Made of 100% cotton, these all look very flattering and will definitely make cooking a lot more fun! Prices start from US$37 and international shipping is available.
I say they make the perfect Mother’s Day gift!
