I'm very excited to introduce you to a lovely new Twigs & Honey blog sponsor, evapaul. They are a husband and wife design team, parents to 1-year-old daphne. Nic and Kirsten have been designing invitations for the past 2.5 years and have designed for over 300 brides. I think their designs are so refreshing and modern... perfect for a no-fuss bride/groom! Additionally, they are super sweet. Visit their etsy shop HERE or their blog HERE. From Nic & Kirsten:

we love photography, modern design and architecture and music.

nic loves photography, vintage amps and black licorice ice cream.

kirsten loves looking at blogs, being a mom [daphne, age 1] and making everything in her life as cute as humanly possible. [things like recipes and filing systems- the important things]

nic is from idaho. he likes it in the summer, not the winter.

kirsten is from colorado. she loves it all the time and talks about it way too often.

nic only likes to work on the couch.

kirsten is almost always found in front of her iMac or at a thrift store.

nic loves playing tackle with daphne.

kirsten likes to pick out daph’s outfits.

nic loves learning about lenses, flashes, guitars and amps.

kirsten likes to look up houses to one day buy.

we both love fruit snacks, our 1979 VW camper, our baby, the real housewives (especially NYC), going out to eat, , san francisco, , reading magazines, staying up till 2 am (we don’t love this, but we do it almost every night anyway), denver, weddings, photography and our family/friends.

So cute and unique! Welcome, evapaul!

Perfectly Paired :: New series

Posted on | Thursday, August 13, 2009 | 1 Comment

I just listed the first of a new series of listings on Etsy. I'm trying to get more "ready to ship" pieces up in the shop and thought to create some special bargains while I was at it. Good for you! :)
As I find time, I'll list "perfectly paired" pieces in single listings on Etsy that are ready made and discounted as a set. It's great for last minute brides and ladies... or maybe even guys looking for a last minute gift for a special someone.
Here's to the first pair. Vida + Blossom: soft, ethereal, and romantic

View the lovely pair HERE.

Rise and Shine Necklace :: Spotted!

Posted on | Friday, July 10, 2009 | 3 Comments

I just happened to visit the Etsy FrontPage this morning and saw a flash of something that looked familiar. It didn't totally click in my head at first and then I realized it was the Rise and Shine Necklace. Remember I originally designed it for my sister?

Fun stuff.

Last year, I was so happy to work with the lovely and creative Kate of Paperleaf. If you are looking for whimsical and handcrafted gift tags, cards, or even custom invitations, be sure to visit Paperleaf's online SHOP and Etsy shop.

I really like these gift tags.

This strawberry print is just yummy.

I especially love these custom invitations.
Just lovely!

Week of Inspiration :: Day 5 (overdue!) :: Best All Around

Posted on | Wednesday, April 8, 2009 | 1 Comment

I never posted my last day of Inspiration week from weeks ago!

Elizabeth Dye! Need I say more. She was the talent behind my gorgeous wedding dress transformation. She owns and runs (yes, meet her in the flesh) a real shop, The English Dept., in Portland, OR. She designs and sews the most beautiful clothing. She also sells on Etsy! *sigh* She is superwoman - a total powerhouse! I don't think I know anyone that has it so together or who works as much as Elizabeth. I could go on and on (and on!) about how uber fabulous she is. What a great inspiration to us all! On top of it all, she is cool. Who uses the word "cool" anymore (makes me feel so 90s using that word)! That is how cool she is. One of those gals that always look effortlessly put together (she has the cutest outfits), can carry a lovely short hairstyle with ease (you always make me want to lob more of my hair off!) and makes you think, "I'd better work harder!" Check out her blog for more inspiration!

A lovely Elizabeth Dye dress and shrug (similar shrug available on Etsy).

I love this jacket she made - ruffles and poufy shoulders!

Oldie but I love it.
I'm doing a trade with Elizabeth and I couldn't be more excited (yes, I feel lucky!). I have a shrug addiction and I have a feeling this will be the shrug of all shrugs. I'll post pictures when it is ready!

Etsy shop update! :: Many new pieces

Posted on | Sunday, March 15, 2009 | 1 Comment

Lots of pretty little things in my Etsy shop today. A nearly identical headband to the one above was featured in all the Brides Local magazines this month. Yay!

Also, I'll be on vacation this coming week. I'll post more details soon!

Major Etsy shop update!

Posted on | Wednesday, February 25, 2009 | 3 Comments

I finally wrangled a bunch of pieces together and have completed an Etsy shop update. I listed 7 new pieces! Here are some of my favorites:

This piece is similar to the one worn by Holly. I received a ton of inquiries about it after her lovely wedding to Mario was posted on Snippet and Ink.

You must view more photos at the photographer's blog. Her dress was done by Elizabeth Dye!

New piece in the Etsy shop :: Feathery necklace

Posted on | Friday, January 9, 2009 | 3 Comments

I just listed a lovely necklace in my Etsy shop today. Fun to wear and eye catching, this necklace will surely turn heads! The more adventurous types can also wear it as a headband/wrap. Ultra pretty... I want to go run in a meadow while wearing it!

Of course, I'm busy fulfilling the custom orders but I did start a new "venture" last week and thought I'd tease everyone just a little with a sneak peak...

twigs & honey :: by myra :: Brand New Blog!

Posted on | Tuesday, February 19, 2008 | 4 Comments

So here it is! My first blog entry. I'll be posting in my blog, any updates such as shop updates, press updates, and general thoughts and maybe fashion ideas. I suppose the sky is the limit! I'm very excited to have started this blog in conjunction with my twigs & honey line. With my husband's loving support, the support of others in the industry, and family, I've been so lucky to have begun creating twigs & honey pieces for brides, bridesmaids, and other fashion forward or adventurous types. I hope to launch my new website soon! If you are interested in any pieces or a custom order, convo me through my Etsy shop. Photo credit: Paul Rich Studio.
