objets de desir wednesday (ODW)

here are some objects of desire i have come across in my real & virtual travels. i hope you enjoy.

i certainly don't need any more jewelry. the difficulty is that i love jewelry. i love looking at the design, the materials, the architecture..... so, i'll just share some of my finds. no need to purchase.

these are silver hoops with pyrite ("fool's gold") nuggets.

they can be found at www.joyodesigns.com.

i liked the idea of earrings with fool's gold on them & think the nuggets look meaty & solid on delicate wires.

these are by the same designer. the gems are rubies. i think the lines of these earrings are nice & like the way she's cut the rubies

to be so angul

ar with the circular lines of the earrings. i like her jewelry.

this sort of appealed to me. there is a collection of jewelry that this designer has created using vintage maps. i liked the idea of the bracelet. i thought it would be cool to perhaps make a bracelet out of places you had lived or favorite places visited- a nice personalized trinket for someone.

it would have to be someone pretty special given the price of this objet de desir!

anyone travel? my travel days are mostly behind me, alas. i still do a little bit of travel & thought these were an attractive way to fulfill the 3-3-1 TSA requirement. this is one of the nicest sets i've seen. this could also be a nice gift for someone. these can be found at www.wishingfish.com.
