I am inspired by her simplicity.  I know her handcraft is not a simple task but she pulls it together and displays it so simply and it's so beautiful. Her photograpy, her styling, her craft... I adore it all!  I especially like her use of large crystal rock formations and linen wrapped blocks. And she has an inspiring group of girlfriends too like those found here, here, here and here. Young, female, professionals  doing what they love and doing it so well.

their spell

feathers, antlers, fur, leather, turquoise, shell, crystals, random glass jars... for body and home

Their collective stylings and their documentation of what arouses their own interests is thoroughly inspiring. Interestingly, sisters living and creating down under in Byron Bay, Australia find intrigue in many Native American adornments and the wild west in general.  I find a deeper appreciation for what more closely surrounds me in my homeland through the free spirit of these overseas soul sisters. Their passion for what they do and the natural indigenous beauty it exudes is spellbinding.  I have mentioned them before here and here while I am quite certain I will be driven to mention them again. In joy!

I would love to have a lil' boutique like this one day...one day!  Our very own mercantile!  I believe my fine lady friends and I are already in the process in our very own unconventional roundabout way.  We are on our way...we are on our way!

I especially like the moss and tumbleweed display accents and the burnt shou-sugi-ban technique she applies to the wood, like on the ceiling and some of the display surface tops. You can read and see more about this Brooklyn boutique here and here.
