This month’s first treasury is Father’s Day, to celebrate.. well, dads. Crazy, goofy and, hopefully, geeky. Smile

I don’t think any  of these guys were dads but they are still awesome, so of course you put Dad on the list with the rest of them. By ,SoakStudio

This seems to sum up programmers rather well, don’t you think? by signaturetshirts

Treasury: Victorian Jewel Box

Lace, frills, buttons, patterns, pearls and filigree, put those together, and what do you get? Victorian clothing and this month's second treasury! :D 
5214

This lovely necklace trinketsforkeeps, is both ornate and simple. I love the  filigree at the top.

I love the color in this pin. pegasus22’s description is great too, talking about how the brooch is great for “ hats, fascinators, decorations, centerpieces, and more”. I had to go look up what a fascinator was afterwards though XD

While technically not a piece of jewelry, Blackpin’s hat is too lovely to leave off the list!

LeBoudoirNoir ‘s choker makes me think of heading out to the opera or ballet for the night.

This cameo from RemoteLuxury brings  to mind the Victorian memento mori jewelry.

These earrings from Arabescque are so cute! They look like the side of a teacup.

The Victorians had a love of travel, and many styles of jewelry and artifacts from around the world were given a revival due to that. BoxOfLostSouls’s neo byzantine ring fits the bill.

I’m not usually one for lace, but this set  by DIDIcrochet is just stunning. I especially love the arched shapes on the necklace.

Baronyka’s  raven earrings are absolutely lovely. The edging is so intricate, and I can’t figure out how it was done D:

A common thing in Victorian times was to carry around smelling salts or potpourri to keep away smells. Curiosities212’s necklace brings that to mind. 

A lovely pair of earrings of a woman with a bird from  luvintage.

Ricksonjewellery has taken what was mourning jewelry, and turned it into a beautiful, personal piece.

While leather was not exactly the go to jewelry choice for those of the Victorian times, the swirls and curls of this gorgeous cuff bring to mind the elaborate dresses of the period. For me at least.
by TomBanwell

This chased heart from chicfragments is an antique scent box and rosary. I love the design, and how it’s not quite perfect.

Cute earrings by gooseberrystudio based on the show Downton Abbey.

Mazes, locks and keys, and riddles were all common pastimes during the Victorian era (and well past it really) and this cute locket by iluxo brings that to mind.

Treasury: Mom’s Day at the Spa

5141

We're doing this month's first treasury a little early this time, to make sure that it's in time for Mother's Day.
I built the treasury around the idea of having a spa day at home after talking to both my twin and my own mom, and both of them wanting a few days to relax.

Starting off with a little bit of pretty, these vintage hairsticks by uniquedkz  are adorable.

 

Kinies’ purses are solid come in killer colors, great for a woman on the go.

After a long day running around, who wouldn’t like a massage? eSCENTialsAroma makes it easy.

Cute and detailed these are a sweet gift. by ToastedGlass 

An amazing all in one spa set by greenbubbleshome.

Nothinglikeleather adds a nifty way to pull up your hair while enjoying that soak. (Or you know, anything else Winking smile )

FeathersOnTheGround provides lovely gardenia soaps which are chock full of moisturizing agents to make Mom’s skin nice and soft.

Aromatherapy is supposed to be all sorts of helpful right? goodearthessentials helps you out with a full starter set.

A rough and tumble bag DuDuLeather, perfect for a day out and about.

More and more people complain of sleep loss, CountryFolkSoap aims to help with this lavender & sage spa set.

Does Mom enjoy makeup, either for herself or doing it for others? Why not get her a starter kit complete with brushes from SweetFaceMinerals?

With frankincense & Indian sandalwood this soap is definitely worth a king, er Queen’s ransom!

By amethystsoap

A care kit for the mom that loves getting dirt under her nails, by naturesmuse.

Earthy and lovely ceramic mugs by hughespottery. Perfect for curling up and watching the spring time rains.

Not quite sure which scent best defines Mom? Why not pick a couple of them and give her a choice?  by AROAMAS

One last perfume, by SpectrumCosmetic, the soothing scent of black tea.

I hope you enjoyed this treasury, and Mother’s day when it comes!
