Feeling Like a Scatterbrain?

BySusan Chan

Oh boy what a week I had last week. Besides almost every important planet being in retrograde (Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn and Pluto), it seems like all my projects either sped up or came to a screeching halt last week. Things that usually worked like a charm like Google decided to go haywire. Yes, Google!…

Give and Take at the Metropolitan Museum of Art

BySusan Chan

Having been a former graphic designer, I’m was sad when I found out that The Metropolitan Museum of Art will no longer be issuing their colorful metal buttons on admission. Wasn’t it nice to guess what color it was going to be and then hearing the “clink” when you dropped it into the plastic box…

A Stellar Recycling Program

BySusan Chan

I wanted to share some beautiful images I came across this weekend. Yes, they are discarded cds, ingeniously transformed into an ocean of beauty and magic by architect Clémence Eliard and artist Elise Morin. Let’s not overlook the fact that the locale is a former public morgue in Paris. Talk about changing the qi of…

Light up My Life

BySusan Chan

I love this time of year. Who doesn’t love ambient stringed lights and a reason to stay indoors and eat warm comfort food? I fondly remember the glow of Christmas lights that hung in my apartment year round when I was well into my late 20s. Ok maybe it was even a little later. Unfortunately…

A Cut Above the Rest

BySusan Chan

Beautiful isn’t it? If you look very closely though, you’ll see that it’s not as flat as you thought it was…… Whoa. That’s what I said when I saw (and figured out) what exactly was Lisa Rodden’s works of art. Delicate little treasures that are not only gorgeous but spiritually moving and emotionally imbued. Her…

Do you C Wonder?

BySusan Chan

I could say that for my profession, it’s important that I venture out for inspiration. I admit though that as a creative entrepreneur, I just can’t help seeking out new ideas and New York City is the mecca for that. Walking around SoHo the other day, I came across a store that I read about…

Marrying two things that I love – books and jewelry photos: www. littlefly.co.uk Jewelry designer Jeremy Mays is my hero. In a time where most people are downloading ebooks to their ipads or Kindle, because of Jeremy I no longer have to fret over what will happen to the overabundance of printed books. He reincarnates…
