Cheri is an artist and owner of Mama's Little Babies, a lovely store filled with unique and Victorian inspired illustration jewelry. Each piece is handmade by the artist at her studio in Santa Cruz, California using images from Victorian era collected by her over the years.

I am particularly in love with the "Hoot owl" necklace, which would  look great with those gorgeous butterfly bobby pins.

West Elm: Owl Candle



After Owl Measuring Cups and Owl Butter Dish, I had posted in March, West Elm has recently launched this cute owl candle, which made my "must-haves" list as soon as I saw it. Has it yours?

DIY: Pillow Box Owls





I adore these Rainbow owls made by Card a La Carte. These colorful pillow box owls are fun and easy to make, and perfect to be used as birthday party favors, for holding Halloween candy and Valentine treats!

You'll need:
- Sizzix pillow box die,
- a 3/4″  and 1 1/4″ circle punch
- large oval punch,
- and trio of hearts SU! punches

Happy crafting!

Nood: Owl Vases

How cute are these hoot vases!

These handblown owl shaped vases are made by Nood a Canadian company in three lovely colors - green, yellow and purple to compliment any decor. The perfectly shaped beak makes these vases suitable to be used as a pitcher too.

Unfortunately, these are currently out of stock, but these are too cute to not to be shared with you. Right?

Update: I just received an email from Amy of Nood, who has been very helpful and gave me this email address - info{AT}nood{DOT}ca - where you can send a request to receive an email notification about restocking the vases. Just make sure you enter "Hoot Vase Availability" in the subject line.
