Sneak Peek!
Here is a sneak peek at a necklace that I've been working on for the shop. It's a cluster drop of vintage brass onyx flowers on gunmetal and twirly gold plated bar chain. I really enjoy 'hooking up' vintage and modern materials to create this rocking bohemian edgy necklace.
New Arrival - 'the wanderer' necklace
A new look for the GRIMM & GRETE jewellery brand, this super cool drapery multichain is a perfect summer go to necklace. Accented with rainbow fluorite, the 'wanderer' has a crazy rock n' roll vibe that's infused with a laid back bohemian edge.

Canada Day 2011!!
Queen's Park our destination for family fun on Canada Day.
Lots of entertainment for both adults and kids. Unfortunately, looking at my pics I didn't get an overview of the amusement park aspect of the celebration: kid entertainers, inflatable bouncers, arcade games, amusement rides etc.

Summer Dresses
Fleur Wood is an Australian designer of such beautiful dresses. The dresses are soft and romantic with hints of another era.
I love dresses but I loathe shopping for them; it's such a pain in the *#$. When I finally find a dress I really like its usually too sheer and who wants to wear a slip in the summer; no thanks! So in the end I return to my summer staple of skirts & t-shirts.
Who knows, maybe things will be different this summer with visions of these gorgeous dresses in my head.
