Dreaming of....


What are you dreaming of? Sometimes I think it is fun to dream about crazy things like.... What would I do if I won the lotto? I never play the lotto so this won't become a reality! It is fun to dream about things isn't it! What are your dreams?

New Mother's Day Birthstone Necklace



















To My Mother
For all the times you gently picked me up,

When I fell down,

For all the times you tied my shoes

And tucked me into bed,

Or needed something

But put me first instead.

For everything we shared,

The dreams, the laughter,

And the tears,

I love you with a "Special Love"

That deepens every year.

Live UR Life Now!


You gotta ask yourself are you living in the here and now? Far to often we all keep saying " I will do this in the future" or we save things for a "special occasion". I say do something today that you are putting off or pull that thing that you have been saving for a "special occasion" out and wear it or use it! Live UR Life!
Don't put it off until tomorrow you have to live your life now! Let this necklace be a reminder to live in the now.
The "Live ur life" necklace is a 5/8 of an inch sterling silver disc that has the words "live ur life" hand stamped. The necklace also includes a garnet that has been hand wrapped. The charms hang on a 18 inch sterling silver snake chain.
Artist note: The letters on this disc have been hand stamped one at a time. I do not use machines. The letters will not line up perfectly and are not meant to this is part of the charm that makes your piece one of a kind. No two pieces will ever be exactly the same. The letters have been oxidized/antiqued to make them stand out it will appear to be aged or slightly tarnished but has been given a good polish.

Have you seen these guys???






Lately Will is so into Max and Ruby. Have you seen these guys? It is a cute show about a brother and sister. Max is usually getting in trouble and Ruby is always taking care of him. The one strange thing about the show is that there is never any parents around and these guys ride the bus, explore town, go swimming, camping you name it. If you can't find it on tv Target has a few of their videos. As you can see Will had to have the Max and Ruby dolls. Check out it is a cute show.

The necklace also includes two swarovski crystals the available colors are: clear crystal, pink, light blue, red, silver,light green, black, topaz,light purple, and silver. The charms hang on a sturdy sterling silver 16 inch snake chain. The necklace is $49 as pictured.
