Canadian photographer Matt Molloy stacks hundreds of shots, taken from a time lapse video, to create painting like images. The layering creates the most unique brush-like, smeared effect. Honestly, incredible!

DIY Chandelier Crystal Clutch
Posted by Erica on
I deeply regret missing out on scoring Mawi‘s new glitter clutches on Moda Operandi last month . . . honestly, DOH! Any of the sparkly numbers would have been the perfect compliment to many holiday ensembles. Determined to recreate it, I found some brilliantly colored chandelier crystals that would do just the trick. Add some glitter, Mod Podge, a zip pouch and voila, you’re ready to celebrate 2012 in your new glitter clutch!
You’ll need:
- a small zip clutch (I used Magenta)
- 9 chandelier crystals (I used 3.25″ blue prism crystals)
- a handful of preset rhinestones
- glitter (I used Martha Stewart Amethyst)
- Mod Podge
- E6000
- painter’s tape
- a plastic container
- a toothpick

The People’s Movement

Making shoes from organic and natural materials, as well as up-cycled plastic bags from the polluted beaches of Bali, The People’s Movement has set out to repurpose and eliminate single use waste. This year they’ve collaborated with the Plastic Pollution Coalition, a group dedicated to stopping plastic pollution and it’s toxic impacts on humans, animals and the environment, by donating $1 from every pair of sneakers from their Clean Act collection. What a great feeling to know that behind these super cute (and extremely comfortable) kicks is an outstanding mission and cause. Sneaker up!
