TRIANGLES

Bunting flags are cheery nods to a nautical past. In the days of yore these flags were raised to signal distant ships.

You can wear your Corky Bunting Necklace to signal cuter intentions.


Corky Bunting Necklace made of Czech glass triangle beads with Italian sterling silver chain. 

THAUMATROPE

A thaumatrope is a toy that was popular in Victorian Times. A disk or card with a picture on each side is attached to two pieces of string. When the strings are twirled quickly between the fingers the two pictures appear to combine into a single image due to persistence of vision.
These thaumatropes were featured in the Tim Burton film 'Sleepy Hollow'. Ichabod is reminded of his dead mother after meeting Katrina and has a flashback of her spinning a thaumotrope to comfort him as he falls asleep.
You can form your own shiny associations with this stunning necklace from Corky.

BITTER

Sometimes it can be hard not to be bitter about Melbourne in Winter.

This week, for example, it was a sunny 28 degrees in Darwin. Lake Eyre is in bloom,

and even though there are storms in Perth it's still a mild 21. I'm not even going to bother talking about Brisvegas or Byron Bay or Sydney. 

I'm too busy trying to spoon the heater without customers noticing. 

Besides, there are some great things about Melbourne in Winter. Here is one of them.

MIXTAPE

New Mixtape Enamel + Stainless Steel Brooch by Christopher-Hussein Bril  I was inspired to make this super sweet brooch when my very nice boyfriend gave me a mixtape for Christmas. It had lots of cool songs on it including one by Judee Sill that I listen to all the time. I don't even know who she is but I like it.
We are giving one away as a special promotion. Just tell us your ultimate 'mixtape killer track'. Just one track per person please.  Competition ends on June 12, Tuesday at 9am.  Leave a comment with your suggestion on our facebook page or email it to corkysaintclair@gmail.com

CRYSTAL

	Dear Diary It seems my crystal habit is spinning totally out of control. I love crystals so much, nothing seems to matter when I'm staring at them. Today I bought this stunning "Crystal Teeth" necklace from beloved indie jewellery shop Corky Saint Clair for just $60AUD.  It consists of four quartz points on an 80cm Italian sterling silver chain. I have spent hours playing with the necklace as the quartz teeth spin around the rod that holds them. I always wanted more from my life but maybe crystals are enough.
