Klein Constantia Honey Packaging

Beautiful honey packaging for Klein Constantia Farm by Terence Kitching.

 "The small white box resembles a bee hive box with embossed ridges to denote planks of wood & nails. The famous Klein Constantia crest is gold foiled on the front of the box below the diecut slit that has one bee on its way into the box inviting you to open the packaging. The box opens to reveal a, bee covered, honey comb pattern as well as small diecut bees packaged inside each box. all the bees were also detailed with gold foiling."

Ok, to all you fashionistas out there, I apologize but just looking at this makes me sick!

Tickette

Product designers Tal Margalit and Ellia Nattel join forces to become Tickette.
This design duo aims to offer unique products from a different point of view.

They have launched two main collections – Word Charm and Doodle Jewelry.

The first collection, Word Charm, is made of words that literally define the jewelry. The duo used text to create the actual pieces of the jewelry, so for example the pendant on a necklace is comprised of the word “necklace” and its meaning.

The second collection — Doodle Jewelry — captures the spirit and lightness of hand drawn doodles and transforms them into fine jewelry.

All of the pieces are made and designed by Tickette in stainless steel, silver or gold plated or color coated in black or red.

Featured Work: Whitefly Jewelry

 Beautiful handmade jewelry by Amanda's Whitefly.
Here's how she does it. Really unique.

"I cast all my items directly from real vintage lace, ribbon, satin or string into solid sterling silver and gold. Each item is made by hand from scratch. There is no mold. One of the things that's really great about handmade work is the character that each piece has. I tie each bow, from ribbon and string...Each lace item is made from an actual piece of lace, and I use only the highest quality vintage lace."

More of her work over at Etsy.
