Awesome -- I can't wait to see the pics!
I love World Market so much. I always buy the hubby interesting flavors of Pocky or Asian KitKat flavors when I go in. Last time was green tea chocolate Pocky, which he quite liked. I always wind up finding great gifts for people there. I found this adorable scarf/wrap there for a friend of the family a few months back. It was a lightweight cotton weave, pale green and light aqua, and she uses it all the time and loves it.
What's funny is that my Mom is insanely generous, too. I got her a subscription to the Thierry Mugler box for Valentine's Day, and she keeps giving me things from the boxes! (Well, in two cases, I actually accepted because she wouldn't wear Alien, and there was a gold metallic polish with a slight red shift she'd never use, but I love.) Then again, she's gotten a ton of my sub box samples, too. Anything with a lavender scent goes right to Mom. She loves lavender. I hate it because it gives me headaches.

I finally just ordered my cord ends, so when they get here, some wrap bracelets are in the future for round 2! Colors of cording I have on hand right now are basic black leather, pale green satin, light aqua satin, yellow [SIZE=13.63636302948px]leather[/SIZE], rosy-mauve, red, a few shades of brown and tan skinny leather, a neat, funky multi-tone red-purple-blue-green jewel tone satin, and a cream satin cord with a slender gold trim. I may have one or two others I'm forgetting, though. I'm such a dork about this stuff. Only reason I ordered the cord ends was because I had to order some sterling pieces for a holiday gift for my mother in law -- I found this gorgeous antique pendant in a silver filigree with tiny turquoise and coral accents, and I'm turning it into a convertible two strand station necklace with some gorgeous coral beads I found in a local shop. I can't wait to give it to her -- I think she'll love it.

I am suddenly craving this one Kat Von D shadow I saw -- a brown/blue shadeshifter shadow. I'm telling myself I don't need to spend $18 on another eyeshadow. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
