JORDWATCH Review

I was contacted by JORD a while ago, I got an email asking me to do a review of Jord Watches. I wasn't sure if I would have the time or even if I wanted to do it. I haven't posted regularly on my blog for some time. An other thing was that I have not worn a watch for years. I didn't reply. However an idea was forming in my head and I could not stop thinking about the Jord Watches. To my surprise I recieved an other email from Jord. By now the idea that was forming in my head had set root. I could not refuse.

My Fieldcrest Zebrawood and Maple #JordWatch is sturdy, eventhoug it feels light to the touch. I would not submerge it into water though. I'm thinking water would dry out the wood and make it brittle.  The timepiece is smooth to the touch and feels warm when you hold or wear it - unlike a metal watch.

This Wood Watch does draw attention to it. Never has any piece of clothing or accessories that I've worn gotten more attention than this wood watch. People want to touch it and hold it and even try it on. And the reactions are much like my own described in this post. "Wow how light it is. If feels really smooth. Good looking timepiece." And I usually get the question: "Where did you get it? Where can I buy one?"

When I was unboxing the timepiece I noticed a few nice details. First off it came packaged in a beautiful wood box (sucker for boxes). Great for storing your wood watch when not wearing it. There was a cleaning cloth included. Great when you are taking photos of the watch and don't want fingerprints showing on the glass. The back of the watch is not metal but in fact is covered with wood. That was a nice surprice. The back is ingraved with the Jord Logo, where the timepiece is born and manufactured and what it is made of. The backpiece is attached with 4 screwes. On the wristband next to the clasp the word JORD is ingraved. The clasp opens up really wide so it's really easy to put on the watch. The Crown is also ingraved with the Jord Logo.

Unfortunately I had a problem with the clasp of the watch. It came undone by the slightest touch. I took a closer look at the clasp and realised that I did not even have to push the clasp to open it. I could just pull the wristband. Clearly a faulty clasp. Woodwatches said that they will replace the watch.

Having a wood watch brings up a few questions.

What kind of wood is used? Is it from sustainable sources?

Can I be/become allergic to my wood watch?

How do I clean and keep my wood watch clean?

Are JORD watches water resistant?

BOrn Pretty Store Accessories - Review

I'm Wearing a Crown!

I have 2 new items to show you from Born Pretty Store. Earrings today and waterdecals with a manicure tomorrow. So stay tuned. I will also post a Giveaway soon - sponsored by Born Pretty Store. So be sure to be a follower by clicking the follower button at the top of the page and check in now and then.

These cute stud earrings have a pretty peach heart with a gold colored crown on top with pearls and glitter stones. The thingy at the back is just a rubber one. But I guess you can borrow some from an other pair. I have used these a few times and nothing has fallen off. To help the pearls to stick and the colors not to fade I used a top coat on the Crown part of the earrings. I do that with rings and earrings that aren't real gold or silver.

I can't help but think

Funny thing my

sistes said the

same thing when

thay saw these.

You have to look up on 80s Purple website if they ship to where you are.

What style of Shades are you sporting this spring/summer?

Accessories

I picked up this cute black ring in the shape of a rose this week,

and also a bracelet that was on sale. The ring was about 60SEK

and the bracelet 40SEK. That would be something like $16/£10 for both.

I know it's not very cheap. But what am I to do... These aren't even silver.

Wish we had Dollarstores in Sweden. I would buy so much more.

I love rings, necklaces and bracelets and all that stuff.

What is your favorite accessorie for the moment?

I wish

...to own this bag from Handbag Heaven in Red and Cream

This is what Hanbag Heaven says about the bag:

By now a fashion classic, our Sami Quilted Handbag

takes you perfectly from season to season and was

featured in the May 2011 issue of People Style Watch.

The soft leatherette is quilted and accented with brass

hardware and a solid brass chain shoulder strap.

The antiqued chain can be attached for a trendy look,

or stored inside the bag when you prefer the look of a satchel. 

The top of the bag is structured with a frame and clasp

closure and gives the appearance of a doctor's bag when

opened. The inside is lined with jet black or cream fabric

and includes one zippered pocket and two open top

pockets for storing smaller items. 

14.5" L x 4.5" W x 10" H 

6.5” drop handles 

11.5" chain strap 

*Chain strap may not be strong enough to use for carrying. 

Available colors: Black, Purple, Red, Pewter, Cream

Greta Kisslock Satchel

I dream about this bag:

Greta Kisslock Satchel.

I need it. I want it.

It is just so cute.

This is what Hand Bag Heaven says about it:


Ladylike handbags have never looked as delicious as our Greta Kisslock Satchel by Nila Anthony. This statement piece is available in creamy ivory and adorned with a blooming flower along the front. The satchel handles are long enough to wear over your shoulder, while the structured top and kisslock closure provide the essence of a feminine bag. 

The top of the handbag includes a polished silver metal top that opens to reveal dreamy chocolate brown lining, one zippered pocket and two open top pockets. The roomy interior provides plenty of room for your daily essentials, plus a few extras like a compact umbrella.


17.5” L x 5.5" W x 12.5" H 
8” double drop handles

Will you get it for me? >.<

What is your favorite bag that you want to buy or that you allready have?

Bracelets by Ida Pie

Can you tie knots?

Then you can do something like this.

This is what I did past sunday to my mother.

It is quick, easy and fun. And it looks nice.

I also made this box for her to put them in.

 These following bracelets I have made before.

I like to wear  atleast two

or more bracelets at a time.

Color coordinated beads.

I useed an old necklace
and bought some new beads.

You can also do these without the beads.
Just tie the knots. That looks cool too.

Here I chose red as an accent color.

It really pops out.

Mixing size and shape of the beads 

brings life to the design.

To open you just pull the bracelet.

Pull the beads to close.

It is that easy.  

This is what I use
when I make the Macrame bracelets.
