"Bathing.............One of lifes necessities but also one of lifes greatest pleasures. At Bomb Cosmetics we believe bathing is a time to indulge, a time to reflect upon and enjoy those increasingly rare opportunities to spend a little quality time by yourself.

But being a little selfish and enjoying some "me time" doesn't need to come at a price to the environment."

Ribbon - Coat Rack

2010-07-13T11:50:00.000-07:00

Inspired by a Ribbon blowing in the wind, Ribbon is a wall-mounted coat rack. Aimed to merge function and art, when in use Ribbon holds up to 5 coats and scarves, but by itself is wall art.

– Ribbon can hold up to 5 coats, plus other essentials like scarves and umbrellas, making it a great storage solution for families.
Artistic – Ribbon's sleek, sculptural form is purposely designed to be a piece of wall art when it is not being used as a coat rack.
Easy-to-Install – Ribbon installs quickly and easily using 4 screws and wall plugs (supplied). Each screw is powder-coated to colour match the coat rack, to provide a seamless, quality finish.
Hand-made – Each unit is hand-made, in limited numbers, by craftsmen in India. (Please note: because of the human element involved in production no two units are 100% identical).
Colours - Matt black, matt white, glossy red, weathered bronze, glossy yellow. (Note: the weathered bronze paint is slightly transparent allowing the underlying metal (with its grain structure and flaws) to show through, adding to the worn, antique feel of each piece).

Spend one minute in this shop! ;)

This handmade belly butter is formulated specifically to address some of the not-so-pleasant side effects of pregnancy. Massage it into your belly, butts, boobs, and hips daily to help prevent stretchmarks and relieve itching. Apply to any part of the body to soothe aches and pains. It's a great foot and leg rub at the end of the day -- especially when you can get someone else to massage it in for you.

Muddah Buddah is made from all natural ingredients and contains no additives or chemical preservatives. It is rich in antioxidants which help repair and rejuvenate the skin. It also contains a natural anti-inflammatory which is why it’s so great at easing those aches and pains.

Muddah Buddah is highly concentrated, so a little goes a long way. It has a very low melting point, if you’re going to travel with it, keep it in a ziplock bag. Melting does not damage the product as long as it’s not exposed to extreme heat (200F). Muddah Buddah washes out of clothing with normal laundering.

Melt Monsters! Banish Boogiemen! Gas Ghouls!

Aack Attack! is intended to serve as a psychological soother for kids who have difficulty winding down at bedtime, have anxieties or fears, or just need to feel a little more in control of their environment. The fragrance is actually very mild and dissipates quickly. This is intentional as children’s sense of smell is more acute than adults. If you want something that smells a little stronger, stay tuned. Extra Strength Aack Attack! will be available soon. Aack Attack! is paraben free, phthalate free and certified vegan, so Moms & Dads can feel good using it. It contains the bare minimum of a safe preservative system. Keeping it out of direct sunlight and away from heat will extend the life of the product.

Neroli Distillate is the ‘active’ ingredient in Aack Attack! It is the distilled essence of orange blossoms. It is gently uplifting, calming and provides a sense of well-being. It can ease stress, anxiety and depression. It is mildly sedative and is showing some benefits in helping those with ADHD.

Gardening is the number one hobby in the world - acknowledge your own love of everything plantable or treat your favorite gardener to a beautiful reminder of the beauty that gardens bring to daily life!

This pendant was handmade out of sterling silver sheet. I designed the shape of this pendant to compliment the shape of this great stone.
The semi-precious stone is Charoite and it is found only in Russia.
It has great natural streaks of purple and white that creates a great pattern on the stone.

The pendant measures approx. 2-1/4" long by approx. 1-1/4" wide (at its widest point).

The pendant comes on an 18" sterling silver snake chain that has a lobster claw closure.

The serene back-and-forth movement of a rocking chair is nothing if not relaxing. It can also be useful and productive, according to Rochus Jacob. The designer’s Murakami Chair, a winner in designboom’s Green Life competition, uses the kinetic energy produced by rocking to power an attached OLED lamp.

Eco-friendly ideas...

2009-10-19T12:12:00.000-07:00

Let me suggest some original ideas for your next little gifts...

You simply don’t have time to do the remodeling projects you had wanted to dig into this summer, but that doesn’t mean you have to let all of your design intentions go by the wayside. With these fun and adorable Wallflowers, you can take a new coat of paint and a pattern, and have yourself a whole new room.
The wallflowers come magnetized, but can work just as easily with a simple tack and can be put anywhere, on any surface. Imagine the possibilities…from living rooms to fridges and from to ceilings to patios. Constructed of polypropylene, the flowers are easily washable with soap and water.
So don’t let a busy year keep your house boring and drab - just make your new décor easy!
OR...

Gorgeous and eco-friendly way to add a bit of life to your workspace or home! This small pots grow either Heirloom Lavender or Japanese Maple in a pots made entirely of renewable grain husks, primarily rice hulls, and organic pigments. Great for a housewarming gift or a little something for a co-worker. You can choose relaxing Lavender or colorful Japanese Maple.

In the Bobbies' world...

2009-10-19T10:52:00.000-07:00

These hair pins are made with bright vintage buttons collected over the years.

Sweet flower cabochons on antiqued brass bobby pins make the perfect accessory for any season. Simple & feminine in vibrant contrasting colors...

A pair of sweet kanzashi flower bobby pins in Japanese cotton with a cute plover design. Aqua blue is splashed with a subtle cream, chocolate, and green pattern, and the centers are accented with opal colored crystals.

Beautiful lavendar and white vintage lucite cabochon (flat back bead), purple/plum rose cabochon, silver filigree with a wire wrapped swarovski crystal in purple have been attached to silver pins.
You can wear these hair clips one, two, three or four at a time!

• Handcrafted blossom hair pins in mocha
• Made with layers of satin to add softness and texture
• Champagne pearl beads and bronze glass beads securely attached

Pin back your luscious locks with this set of three button hairslides. I think that the colours are just beautiful together but could also be used individually to go with all sorts of outfits.

Happy Birthday Mum!

2009-10-18T14:52:00.000-07:00

Today is my mum's birthday...
So I want to give her a little visibility and to underline her creativity promoting her really new etsy store.
She makes some amazing pillows sham, they are totally Handmade and she spend so many time to realize them that it's a pity but anyone has bought one jet...
Believe me... they are astonishing!

And finally my favourite one...

Loving necklaces...

2009-10-18T14:42:00.000-07:00

Another particular feauturing is for this etsy store...
There are many, many stores on etsy selling jewelry, but I rarely found something original.
I think this is one of those times...

This eye catching, statement necklace is made from a collection of many of the things. Felt, lace and silk cord, in the most vibrant, delightful colour combination.

The quirky felt flowers are created from hand made felt balls, hand dyed pure wool felt and wool fabric, in dusty pink, bright pink, lime green, aqua and browns. They are attached to pink cord that has been wrapped with 3 differednt laces and knotted together with 3 different brown cords that are tied to allow the lengh of the necklace to be adjusted.

Very retro, very quirky, very distressed, very now!!

Another flower necklace this time made from red hand dyed 100% felt wool fabric.

The 3 simple but stunning flowers are hand stitched from vibrant red felt, between the flowers are 2 hand rolled aqua wool felt balls. Flowers and felt balls are threaded on cream linen cord.

Inspired Bags...

2009-10-18T14:34:00.000-07:00

This romantic handbag is very feminine and has an old-fashioned retro look and feel. The outside is 100% silk fabric in a striped pattern with wide bands of green and russet set off by bands of shiny gold. Embellished with satin ribbon that's attached with hand stitching to mimic ribbon embroidery. The green ribbon used for the flower stem is edged with shiny metallic gold, and the flower itself is a beautiful deep coral.
Handles are woven of a rattan and leather-like material, and are attached to the purse with wooden rings. The inside is lined with peach colored organza. There are 2 large interior pockets, (one on either side), that are machine edge stitched with holographic thread in a floral design.
This purse has the look and feel of days gone by, and it's vintage inspired. It begs to be taken on outings where each moment is savored - romantic evenings for dinner and/or theater, rides in the country, Sunday brunches, and after dinner strolls. If you are looking a very feminine purse for genteel occasions that are unhurried and romantic, this is the purse for you.

This instead is a simple but pretty and functional purse that's made with high quality 100% cotton fabric. Amy Butler lotus fabrics are on the outside, in colors of sage green, orange, ivory, soft yellow and taupe. The inside is lined with Kaffe Fassett "paperweight" print in lime green.

The front and back have identical large envelope pockets, and inside there is one large and one divided pocket, all made with the lotus and paperweight fabrics.
While not quilted, this purse has been made soft by the use of fleece linings. The bottom is reinforced with double layers of plastic to resist sagging. A magnetic closure holds the purse closed.

Say an unconventional "Happy Birthday!"

2009-10-18T14:08:00.000-07:00

2009-10-18T11:59:00.000-07:00

Many months since my last post ... Autumn arrived jet and now I'm looking for a really special bag.
I would like something coloured...something that could remember me about summer lawn grass...I love it.
So on etsy I found this store ... prices are really too expensive for my pockets, but THIS is REALLY what I was looking for...

There is one main compartment inside and a large zipped pocket on the back of the bag. The front large pocket fastens with a magnetic popper for easy access.

The bag is fully lined in a vibrant floral patterned print cotton. Inside the bag you will find a zipped interior pocket on one side and a leather phone pouch on the other.

And what about this soft purple tote?
I bought a pair of shoes at H&M (do U have it in your country?) that totally match it ... Damn! I'm poor... ;)

The colors range from fuchsia to teal with spashes of purple, pink, green and blue. There is a silver plated bail on this one of a kind pendant.
The size of this pendant is 1 1/2" at its widest point narrowing down to 1/4". It measures 1" from bail to bottom point.

Have you ever seen a frosted donut soap ?

2009-02-10T12:19:00.000-08:00

No, I never do! Really!

This is a great news for greedys...

At the soapdeli.etsy.com you can find a lot of nice ideas for make yourself happy or for a gift, but I think these soaps are the most particular you can choose.

The Frosted Donut Soap smells just like a fresh baked donut smothered in berry flavored icing. The soap is strongly scented so you are left with a light fragrance on your skin afterward. The soap rinses cleanly away and is all natural except for the fragrance. Each bar weighs 4oz. - 4.5oz.

All these soaps are rich in moisturizing oils and butters for happier, healthier skin.

Ingredients: Olive oil, coconut oil, distilled water, palm oil, sodium hydroxide, rice bran oil, shea butter, fragrance, and color.
