#Tbt: #Manhattan from the top of the Empire State Building (on a disposable camera). My grandfather visited from the Philippines a few years ago, so of course it was a must to do all the touristy city things. (Pretty sure the last time I was there before this was on a 4th grade class trip!) 🚕🌃🗽
#studsandpearls home #diy ••• Ombré Clothespin Magnets. Because you can never have enough ombré anything. How-to at studs-and-pearls.com!
How rings are packed for ShopLimette.com: Placed in recycled paper boxes with vintage book page strips (& bubble wrap!), tied with fabric. Everything is still 40% off and will be, until I clear everything out! #jewelry #handmade
For those of you who criticize Janelle’s signature monochromatic look.
From her speech on “Black Girls Rock”:
“When I started my music career, I was a maid. I used to clean houses. My mother was a proud janitor. My stepfather, who raised me like his very own, worked at the post office and my father was a trashman. They all wore uniforms and that’s why I stand here today, in my black and white, and I wear my uniform to honor them.
This is a reminder that I have work to do. I have people to uplift. I have people to inspire. And today, I wear my uniform proudly as a Cover Girl. I want to be clear, young girls, I didn’t have to change who I was to become a Cover Girl. I didn’t have to become perfect because I’ve learned throughout my journey that perfection is the enemy of greatness.
Embrace what makes you unique, even if it makes others uncomfortable.” - Janelle Monáe

Worked on ShopLimette.com orders all morning. Packing them up is half the fun 😁 The jewelry is held on scrap cardboard wrapped in a vintage book page. Then it’s wrapped in vintage sewing patterns, tied off with a fabric strip. Thank you notes are hand stamped & hand punched, & comes with a #studsandpearls business card (each one is embellished differently!)
Cinnamon vanilla nut iced coffee & brainstorming a few projects. #icedcoffee #studsandpearls #ABeautifulMess 🌞

Treating myself to a Drumstick. Just found out that I’ll be working on little collab with a small craft store chain! Details coming soon. #diy #ABeautifulMess 🍦
