in the shop: new lovelies for spring!

Oh friends! It’s been so long, hasn’t it? The first two months of 2011 were such a whirlwind for me, to say the very least. Wed By Hand—the handmade, eco-friendly & DIY wedding show that I produce—was an absolute smashing hit, to say the least. Our lovely official photographer, Anne Marie of AMBphoto took the most spectacular photos ever and was able to capture our day in a way that far exceeded my expectations.

After working on Wed By Hand day and night for months on end, I woke up the day after the show surprisingly refreshed and inspired—and ready to start planning the next show. Insane, but a total testament to how brilliant the show and all those involved in it were!

The rest of February was a complete blur of meetings, custom bridal consultations, fulfilling orders, and just plain relaxing for the first time since November. It’s been lovely! We’ve had amazing dinners, nights out, brunches and lunches with friends…mini trips to Quebec…and simple moments of solitude. It’s been brilliant, to say the least.

This is all to say…things have been quiet around the urbanite front as of late. But I finally had a chance to make, photograph & release some new lovelies for Spring (it’s so close—can’t you almost feel it in the air!?). A little peek at some of the new pieces:


Our Banff, Canada Necklace matches a pair of earrings that you’ll probably recognize. Totally stunning. $15 & available in the shop.


Our Chicago, Illinois Earrings are one of my personal favorites. They’re perfect with every outfit and I just can’t stop wearing them. $12. Matching necklace $15.


Oh man—this necklace has been a HIT at the craft shows since November! I finally got around to naming & releasing it online. We named after Cape Canaveral, Florida (where Kennedy Space Center is located) because the lines in the pendant remind me of a planet's orbit in space! $25.


Regal. Royal. Simple. Our York, England earrings remind us of royal crowns a bit. We really love these! $10. Also available in silver.


Well, hello Miss Sass. These earrings pack quite the edgy punch and are named after Los Angeles, California, which is the City of Angels. They’ve been supremely popular over the past few months & we think you’ll love them too!

Whew! And that’s just a little taste, folks! 7 other new styles are now available in the shop!
