soft seafoam seashell dreams..

***

where do mermaids frolic..

seashells glisten..

and starfish sleep?

***

in my dreams. that's where.

maybe it's all the rain we've had this summer

combined with my love for the sea..

because

i'm filled with thoughts of water

glistening pools, deep oceans and sweet shorelines

soft colors

rich pearls

and

delicate details.

..a few water-inspired treats in my jewelry shop..

green is good

in my wanderings around the neighborhood yesterday

i spied some things that i've been waiting (patiently?) for

for a very very long time..

{jennifer morris}

tiny buds, little grasses, sweet ferns (life!)

were pushing up and out of the ground, out of tree branches, bushes, everywhere.

and oh

how happy this made me.

i mean really really happy...giddy in fact.

{jennifer morris}

so giddy that i ran home (mmm..probably more like skipping, actually..)

and immediately started working on

new earrings and pendants

inspired by the new glorious green-ness.

these earrings were the first that i finished..

and there will be more sprouting up in my bead shop

over the weekend.

my musings, on wednesday, of far away beaches and romantic things

are still very much alive and will continue to inspire me throughout the next few months..

it's just that i can now happily add to my collection

inspiration from things closer to home as well.

wishing you a gorgeous holiday weekend

full of inspiration and all sorts of things that make you happy (or even giddy..) too.
