GIVEAWAY Amalia Versaci Zipper Magnets- CLOSED

AND THE WINNER IS .... ROSCATA on Etsy (chosen by random number generator 342)- check out her amazing shop! A great big thank you to everyone who entered!

I am imagining that as a child someone may have told Amalia Versaci to just "zip it" and being a very literal and creative and genius child - she did!

Her amazing vintage zipper creations always make me so happy. They are totally unique and totally recycled and totally fun!

I have one of her zipper magnets and it is gorgeous and sturdy and perfect fidget material for a fidgeter like me!


WHAT YOU GET:
One lucky winner will receive a set of 4 vintage Amalia Versaci zipper magnets!



These will bring inspiration and organization to any magnetic surface and carry with them the memories of the dresses (and trousers) they zipped and unzipped in their younger days (oh, the stories an old zipper could tell us- good thing they keep their mouths zipped so our secrets are safe with them, huh?)



HOW TO WIN:

MIDNIGHT on Sunday, Sept 6th!

A Little August Hump Day Honey

It has been quite hot here, but how can we complain when it is August

(never stopped us before)

and we are finding all these amazing little stunners out there that will make us want to sing!

(well... not me though - I was the only girl in my entire 4th grade to not make the chorus- the teacher told me I could join if I just mouthed the words- probably exactly what happened to Milli Vanilli in 4th grade)


If Amalia Versaci does one more amazing thing with a vintage zipper I am going to need to be zipped into my very own straight jacket (check out these magnets!)



Zelaya's amazing appliqued wrap is total gorgeousness.




Why are we trading in our gas guzzlers when we can turn them into farms? Have you seen the Farm Truck? A little project of some eco-filmmakers in Brooklyn to promote awareness of small space farming- love it!



Who could resist these little yummy lollipop-pies from Luxirare?



OK, how flippin' clever is this - a set of lids by designer Jack Bresnahan that turns our used tin cans into almost everything!



Jennifer Gordon, the creator of the indie comic book Stiletto Heights has totally amazing prints available in her Etsy shop and she has a locket!




Cool clutches made from used skateboards from Beck(y).



And finally, Wonderlust (what a great name!) has me lusting over their amazing bunting!
