In the spirit of giving thanks and, let’s face it, shopping frantically, why not celebrate Friendsgiving? – AKA getting beautiful treats for friends from some of our friends’ lines! We’ve collected just a few works by some of Masha’s favorites that get our hearts racing for the holidays and beyond. Take a look below, and don’t forget to jot these down for your Santa list! Chances are you’ll find something to decorate your pretty little self with too.
1. Virtue Doll: Calm
Take a deep breath of chillax every time you lay eyes on this darling figurine. Each of the Virtue Dolls from The School of Life, inspired by traditional Japanese dolls, embodies an exemplary virtue and reminds you to be a better self. Best part; inside each one there’s a small folded card for your own handwritten message, dream or wish. £22.00 at Polite.
2 Sonny Gold Ring
For some serious bling, we’re coveting (and saving many pennies for) this Spinelli Koilcollin Diamond & Rose Gold “Sonny Gold” Ring. It’s got just enough tasteful sparkle, badassness and versatility to last a lifetime. $2,600 at Barneys
3 Eye Mug
Your mug is watching you! In the best possible way. A good-looking addition to any table or desk from Xenia Taler, makers of clever ceramics. $20 from xeniataler.com.
4. I. Ronni Kapos Necklace
Ronni makes jewelry by hand from an evolving collection of vintage German glass. She frequently designs for Anthropologie accessory line. This clean piece is from her current 70’s Glam collection, inquire at irkjewelry.com
5. BUTTERFLY 1 Temporary Tattoo
Accessorize with Fiona Richards’ beautiful Butterfly tattoo and exercise no commitment. This colorful design matches with any social butterfly’s outfit! Bonus! – you can decorate your DIY ornaments with these! $5 from Tattly.com
6. Envelope – FOIL greeting card
Never forget to thank! Personally, we can’t resist anything that glitters. Because it must be gold. Like this fun gold foil on 100% post-consumer recycled paper card from designer Carolyn Suzuki. $5 at carolynsuzukigoods.com

Masha has been on a mini-sabbatical on the east coast, gathering inspiration from viewing beautiful works of art and nature. In the meantime, we’ve been gathering our own color inspiration from her photos of the rich hues and shades of purple on Plum Island and beyond. Inspired by her new ‘do,’ beautiful jewel-toned beaches and the wide, wild variety of foliage, we wanted to round up a few pieces of watercolor mischief and a mouth-watering pictorial to satisfy your purple craving.

A whole lot of news from Masha going on in-shop lately! We wanted to grab you on this bright Thursday and share some stuff that we’re excited about!
First up, we know that a lot of you read/currently-read/or might just start reading Ladybug to your kiddos! We are honored to be a part of their September issue, accompanying a poem by Amy Ludwig VanDerwater:
Milkweed weaves a crown of silk.
She lays it on your hair.
Pine cones fill your pockets up
and fall out everywhere.
Burdock pokes you through your socks; he doesn’t even care.
Seeds will travel through the world no matter how or where.
