For August's Polish Pickup them At the Carnival MTK Design and Forty Winks Jewelry both chose carousels as inspiration and have loosely collaborated to offer a coordinating set available separately within PPu. Mary kindly sent me her gorgeous necklace to review and well, Forty Winks is me 😉. We knew each other's general color schemes because of  our inspiration photos and agreed on bronze settings but otherwise each piece was created independently and I CANNOT get over how well they go together. I am thrilled that Mary agreed to collab with me! These will be available August 2-5th and are both limited quantities. Read on for details on each.



Mary has created this beautiful necklace with a thermal design. The chain itself is 24 inches with a 2 inch extender. The bead on the extender is the perfect touch and I love that it looks beautiful from the back as well. I'm wearing it without using the extender, so at 24 inches. The thermal change is very reactive.

 Inspiration: Nostalgic Horse Carousel photo – capturing this innocent childhood fun – of pure happiness. It’s a place with no cares, no worries; nothing but time. Time for one more ride, to still see the world as sparkling and bright. 

Description: Care to play a little carousel roulette? – when the thermal polish (Blackhole Sun) warms one of 6 carousel horse are revealed in all its red/copper/gold sparkling glory. (That right, you will receive a random carousel horse. Even I won’t know which is which when they’re done!) The 1 inch glass cabochon is set in antique brass finished bezel and chain w/ a 2 inch extender accented by a single fire opal teardrop resin bead; playing off all those warm sparkles.

Cap: 25, $12.50 each

Ingredients: alloy, glass, resin

Bronze and neutral lovers, these are for you! $10.50 each.

Inspiration: Call The Midwife, Barbara tells Tom a sentimental story from her childhood in which she begged her father for a ride on a carousel, to which he replied “just one ride”. On their wedding day Tom surprises her with a carousel for everyone to enjoy, but not before they take a private ride. Love is worth it, if just for one short ride.

Description: Bronze toned copper stud earrings, 12mm cabochon. Lead and nickel free. Hand painted in a beautiful neutral pallet of 5 indie polishes: unicorn pee, shimmer, multichrome,iridescent flakies. No two will be completely alike. Comes with silicone backs.

Mary of MTK Design and I both chose carousel photos and collaborated to offer you a beautiful coordinating set! The necklace in the photos is hers and available during this sale as well, stamped with a thermal polish. The horse you get will be random, carousel roulette!
