Recommended by abh75 on Nov 20, 2006

There is nothing 'cocktail' about these fierce initial rings by Philip Crangi. Hand-hammered, blackened steel & gold studs make it tough but chic. Perfect for your little sis who just came out of the closet...

bespoke embossers glam up your notes, invites or hell, even your cell phone payment. russell + hazel offers some clean, modern typefaces for those of us who cringe at flowery script. pick up some heavy boxed notes from your local paperie & bundle as a thoughtful gift.

Recommended by abh75 on Sep 6, 2006

Modern silhouettes are genius. Karl Johnson is a young, 3rd generation cut paper artist who has been commissioned by some of the chicest publications & events - with good reason - he's extremely talented. The 2nd best part? His hand-cut, custom portraits start at just $25. Everyone should have original artwork in their home. Now there's no excuse not to! I'll be commissioning portraits of friends, kids & pets this year for Christmas gifts...
