jewelry : sara lagacé

As a designer you would have to be just a little mad to even think you can get away with "shed dog hair" as a material. More amazingly, is that the jewelry comes across as elegant in an off-kilter sort of way.

Of course, not all of Sara Lagacé's work is made from dog hair; she also uses beads and the occasional feather. And her work is just so charming you're willing to forgive the occassional eccentricity, plus recycling dog hair should get an "eco-friendly" nod.

My favorite piece is the yellow beaded number featured above. To see more from Sara Lagacé, check out her website: saralagace.etsy.com
