Thanks to inhabitat for including k. talis in their green jewelry guide on Sunday.

My furious elf-like jewelry making has come to a low boil for the rest of the year. Now I am wrapping, baking, sipping and loving my Fraser Fir. It reminds me of driving around Western North Carolina where sometimes all you can see are rolling hills and mountains dotted with thousands of trees just waiting for Christmas. Now I just have to decorate it.

While shopping for others I'm lusting after these:

prints from Marci Washington
blouse from Eley Kishimoto
Mendiants from chow.com
welcome mat from Lizzie Ridout
I'm Smitten prints- all of them
my new leaf necklace which I'm not sure I can sell now that I have worn it for a week straight
