Seeking...

I always have some sort of mental 'wish list' going in my head; items I keep an eye out for when I'm out and about.  Right now, I have two in particular.
sources: decorative bust // shams
I really want a decorative bust for my statement necklaces.  It needs to be a certain size...small enough to not get in the way, but substantial enough to hold several pieces.  I think this one from Pottery Barn is the front runner, especially since I received a gift card to there for Christmas.

The shams on the other hand...I can't seem to find.  I'm looking for an affordable option which seems to be few and far between (especially since I'm looking for scallops and colorful thread options.) If you know of any, please share!

What are you currently coveting?  Do you keep mental 'wish lists' like I do?

  2. I am currently coveting Kendra Scott jewelry. I couldn't be more obsessed. That decorative bust is awesome! I have a much smaller linen jewelry display for statement necklaces, but that bust is far more awesome!

  4. Love the bust- what a fun idea. I don't know about the shams, we got some as wedding presents from someone who embroiders. Maybe someone on Etsy could monogram them?

  6. Did you see the project that Mrs Limestone featured from Kara Pasely on how to make your own busts? They are flat, for the most part, but kinda cool and you could do the same thing.

  8. Maybe you could DIY the shams? If you know someone who has an embroidery machine or if there's a fashion school in your area. Just a thought. :)

    From Brooklyn with love,

  9. This might be too small and not as great of quality as you are looking for, but it is worth a look at only $15
