New Scuba Blue Necklace

I am pleased to present the FIRST EVER blue rosette necklace!!! This is also the first item in our store that is a lighter blue than the marine blue we've used for our other pieces :)

I call it... SCUBA blue! because it reminds me of the pretty ocean on a warm summer's day. Ahhh.. I'm aching for summer to arrive! This necklace brings it a little closer, at least.

What do you think??
It's been ever-so popular after it was published. (especially on pinterest)
Will you heart it as well, please? :)

And remember to come back on Friday for the fabulous film linky party! :D

The Earth and I Laugh in the Same Way

According to E.E. Cummings, I must laugh a lot since I create a lot of flower-themed jewelry.

The Earth and I laugh in the same way. Creating things, such as beautiful flowers, gives me such joy. I'm always peaceful when I'm creating things. I resolve issues through creating things.

I'm sure the Earth feels the same way - the Earth sure makes some beautiful flowers!


And I do laugh a lot.

Here are some flowers that I've "laughed up":
