Monday Mood Board: Edwardian

Today I am in the "Edwardian" style - mood. So, here some stunning Edwardian items from some of our European Street Team sellers on Etsy.

Last week I was in an almost opposite style, very geometric, and I made my challenge piece for the European Street Team challenge:

It is called "the DOUBLE SQUARE button art ring", and the challenge is called "Geometric Beauty". You can see the entries so far on the Fishes Makes Wishes blog.

I think I am healing pretty fast at the moment because I am craving for yummy food again. My monday moodboard is, therefore, yummy food stuff.

Challenge : Purple

The European Street Team (EST) on Etsy was holding a purple challenge last week. The idea behind it is to stimulate the EST members to be creative in these very quiet summer months... And it worked, lots of beautiful purple items were sent in; you can see them all in our EST blog !

The winner was Nanouke with a beautiful knitted cuff:


I was really inspired by the purple challenge: purple rings, necklace and brooch
