Celluloid, Not Cellulite

I apologize for that little absence. I've been so busy, and busy never seems to leave time for inspiration. {Is there any way we can change that? Who should I draft the letter to?}

Anyway, I wanted to share with you a vintage necklace I found in August at antique shop in Bath, Maine. It's made of celluloid, which is a thermoplastic now largely used for ping-pong balls. I'm gaga over the color combination: Something about that particular shade of green paired with an almost turquoise blue ... it kind of rocks my world.

The necklace rattles all over the place when I move around, and I'm pretty keen on musical jewelry. Plus, it's such a statement piece that I can get away with a plain t-shirt and jeans when I sport it.

Stay tuned for more of my favorite color combinations in the next few days.

  1. It's amazing! And you're right - it will turn jeans and a white shirt into an awesome outfit.
