Wall Up!

One more post on the wallpapers, since I'm customizing my desktop.
I have an all-time favorite graphic artist and GUI designer, who also makes desktop pictures and icons, so you can have a customized environment on your desktop - important to me, i like everything unique and weird ;))) 
His name is David Lanham
New shroomy desktop! 
Called "Entropy". Check out that blue butterfly on the left! ♡ There's the iPad and iPhone sized included in the download package.

Check out his work on Steampunk icons - so smooth and detailed and realistic... Love that! ;)

Wallpapers/Desktop Pictures are easy to install. But I don't know if icons will work for Windows, I use an application called CandyBar to change default Mac OS X icons to what I like.
Theres' so much more on David's website - take a look around, if you will ;)

Upcycled Tribal

Tribal jewelry and accessories will always have a special place in my heart, like no other - what other? rings and bracelets from the brands alike to the one that packs their merchandise in turquoise boxes? Predictable, although, they call things like that a classic, so we keep buying that uninteresting and recognizable thing without a character made of silver.
Booooring!
I find so much detail and story in tribal and neo-tribal jewelry, there's warmth from realising that, that's why I am especially curious in any ethnic adornments and accessories.
A whole fairytale right there! ;)
