The April issue of Living profiles 4 of our craft editors and their personal work. We are excited to highlight the work of a few more of our talented creators here. First up, editors Blake Ramsey & Corinne Gill. Stay tuned for more profiles of other blog contributors later this week!

As office mates in our old space and desk neighbors at our new Chelsea office, we've been accustomed to working & brainstorming together on projects. It was only natural for us to extend the teamwork after hours, and we started working on personal projects together last fall. Inspired by the glamorous fashions & accessories of the 1930's and 40's, we launched Handle & Spout, a brand of festive headdresses and trompe-l'oeil leather jewelry with a sense of humor.

Large faux-flower headbands made of sparkling sheer fabric were designed to add a bit of old-time fun & glamour to any party dress.

Necklaces made from hand-cut links of metallic leather resemble large gold & silver chains but with a soft, playful twist.

The most charming of our creations - small round leather earrings with lots of personality.
