What Struck my Fancy @ Unique LA

I didn't have many opportunities to look around while at Unique LA. Though, as usual I did manage to find a few things I wanted in my short time wondering around!

Chocolateandsteel- Christine is making me custom snail stud earrings! I actually stumbled across her snail necklace on etsy, printed out the picture and pinned it above my desk the week before. I rarely find myself printing something I like out and hanging it up. But, this particular snail conjured up the same feelings as big fluffy cats in my heart. So, I was very excited when I randomly came across this special snail and it's creator in real life, on my way to get a drink!
Can't wait for my earrings to arrive!

Dara Ettinger- I originally met Dara at my first show, The Pasadena Bead & Design Show. I have a druzy ring in green I got there from Dara and I get soooo many compliments on it! So I was eyeing a purple amethyst one and a few others, but just couldn't make up my mind. Next time! The picture doesn't even do it's sparkle justice!

Vintage Find: Butterfly Amethyst Cocktail Ring

Isn't this a stunning vintage gold and amethyst butterfly ring?
I stumbled upon it on Ebay.
The shape of the 9.5 kcarat amethyst is what struck me and the butterflies on the side sealed the deal for me.
Too bad it's not in my budget for this month.
