Fresh and Chic: Studio 23/Sugarcandie Beauty Bar - July 2, 2009
Unique and gorgeous. Those are the words that come to mind when describing the jewelry at Studio 23. This chic shop is owned by Leslii Stevens and she’s multi-talented. Jewelry & artwork are the specialties at Studio 23.
The jewelry line is called Triniti’s closet and is named after Leslii’s daughter. Although she’s only been creating jewelry for the last 3 years, her art experience goes back many years. Everything that she makes incorporates the reuse & recycle philosophy…which is a good thing since we’re all so eco-conscious lately…as we should be. The beautiful bracelet pictured here is made with leather and peridot crystals. The crystals are knotted on the leather and the bracelet is finished off with an antique button. I promise that this is one of the coolest bracelets you’ve ever seen in your life. This piece can also be made with freshwater pearls, clear crystals, amethyst crystals, lilac crystals, pink crystals, teal crystals and cobalt crystals. Take a look at the great necklaces & earrings, too!
The artwork is another segment to this shop. According to her website, “Leslii has come up with an affordable and fun way to collect and buy art. She wanted to create a series of mix and match artworks, where the client becomes the designer. This eventually resulted in the creation of modular wooden blocks, finished and ready to hang, no framing is needed. She takes a rigid, historical printmaking process and fuses it into today’s modern world. Rejecting the idea that printing is only for repetitive editions of identical paper images, Leslii takes extra time to print editions (from her original paintings) that are varied in color, no two alike. She then adds to each print; oil pastels, water colors, gel medium and a top coat of bees wax. Making each one a real one-of-kind piece of art. You can add to your collection in time, hanging them on your walls as one big piece of art like a mosaic, using as many as you wish.”
Stop on by and say hello!
I love body scrubs. I’m sure that I’ve said this many times before…but in case you haven’t heard…I love ‘em. Now if you’re scrunching up your nose and wondering what on earth I’m talking about…it’s this. Scrubs are made with either sugar or salt along with a variety of oils & scents. After you shower, you simply put some of that scrub in your wet hand and rub it all over your body. Rinse. When you exit the shower, your skin will be smooth due to the exfoliation of the scrub and if you choose one from this company, you’ll smell amazing. Yummy!
My buddy Kim over at Handmade Guru sent me over to Sugarcandie Beauty Bar. Kim was raving over their sugar scrubs and I have to agree…she’s right. These rock. And don’t they look pretty? They’re so cute you won’t want to use them. But you have to get over it…because they’ll make more. Choose from Sugared Margarita Beach Cooler, Sexy Sugarberry Crush, Melting Salty Caramel Ice Cream and Oh My! Sugared Apple Pie…and many more. And now…this very moment…is the perfect time to buy. These scrubs are on sale for $8.00! And they’re made with skin loving ingredients so you can have something that is on sale, good for you, will make you feel good AND smell good.
Enjoy this fun shop and the years of experience that bring their customers coming back again and again for more, more, more. To shop, use code Wicked38 and receive a whopping 38 percent off your order of $20.00 or more through July 10, 2009.
