 These colorful earrings are soo 80's, i love them! They add a little more pizazz to my earring collection//After finding this adorable polka dot teacup and saucer,  i decided im gonna start collecting teacups for decor

Black silhouette side portrait for only 60 cents! //  Spotted these lovely shoes across the store, and luckily they were the in perfect condition and just my size!

Can't wait to dress up this simple blue leather purse// I love the colors of this native American design rug but still have no where to place it

                         

 Found this darling vintage leather purse in perfect condition, it just needed a little make over. I redesigned this purse and added some pretty lace and ribbon to give it more of an eye-catching look. Its embellished with an orange crocheted piece and and a gold button.

The Greatest Show On Earth

Listening to MansardRoof by Vampire Weekend

Water For Elephants, is one of the books Im currently reading. Each page is filled with vivid details and richness, this book verily opens the doors to a world of fantasy- the Circus World. I am absolutely smitten by the 20th century circus and fairground lore. I looked up and gazed upon some circus pictures, the beauty and nostalgia is captivating, the amazing outfits and costumes, the obscure sights, animals big and small, and the  striking patterns. Here are some of the pictures I found

  The Circus theme can be interpreted for any composition through the colors and patterns.

Actually one of my favorite Pan&Tea original tote designs is sprinkled with a circus motif. Its mixed with stripes, floral, and polka dots, and charmingly displays the boldness of  primary colors. Its currently on sale on My Etsy ,check it out! 

measurements 
width- 13"x15"
length- 18"
handles- 11'" tall

Bold and fun prints 

magnetic snap on button to secure your stuff 

 The inner lining is a cute floral gray and white design, oh yah, 

this bag is also reversible.

I was also inspired by the circus theme a while back and painted this piece you see below. Its filled with playful and fanciful shapes and colors. I used acrylic to paint the background and the organic shapes, then i used ink to rumply trace around the figures. Cut out vintage picture of a little girl and modge podged it and added a little stache.
