I love this bracelet. It is FULL of color and just beautiful.
Green is THE spring’s color… I love when everything gets green on spring, when the grass color is all you can see driving to work… and when T-shirts fill your closet!
This bracelet could give you a little bit of happiness .. every day until next autumn! 
And what else do you think to if I say SPRING ?

And for your baby what’s better than a funny spring hat ?
It will keep him\her warm … against wind and sun too!

This very soft beanie has been crocheted with really soft 100% acrylic eco-friendly yarn made from recycled plastic bottles. Made in a refreshing Sprig Green and accented with a cute white flower.

To find special items to promote on this blog, I used to ask people on etsy.com to show me their particular objects and often I find amazing jewellery stores.
I’ve selected three of my favorite !
Dragonfly Dreams of soft pink and lace. Slightly antique , definitely romantic, and completely unique. ♥
The Antique brass Dragonfly sits upon a 60.07 ct Rose Quartz Cabochon which has been hand woven with delicate wire to form a lace bezel setting. The chain is created with Matching in color smooth rose quartz beads and rose quartz nuggets.
The necklace measure 20 inches long .
The center pendant drop is 1 1/2 inches long x 1 inch wide.
The Rose quartz Cabochon is a beautiful soft pink color, and free of inclusions. It is an unheated stone, without any man made enhancements. this stoned was Mined in Brazil…
Rose quartz came to be known as the stone of love and reconciliation from the Greek myth about Aphrodite and Adonis.
Than I found these 4 bobby pins, they are all different. The colors correspond to the main focal bead!
Multi-colored rainbow beads, as well as glass flower beads to a pair of standard bobby pins with non-tarnish wire. They are very well made and the beads are attached securely to the bobby pins.
This is such a great way to put a little sparkle into your everyday look!
You can wearr pins like this in your hair most days and have no problems with pulling or tangling. These clips work for all kind of hair!
And finally the Operation Fishbowl ring!
9 handmade lampwork glass beads adorn this sterling silver Tribe Hill ring. The dotted beads and way it wiggles will make you giggle. It has all shades of spring. Ring can be made in size 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 also.
All these glass beads were made by me in my Colorado studio and kilned annealed for durability.

Hand painted nesting eggs great for any decor. The first one is painted in the traditional sense with pink flowers and gray bark. The middle egg has a different twist, blue blossoms and gray bark. The third and final egg has white flowers and black bark.
And this one is a original design for a butterknife with what I think is a unique,classic shape, I hope you agree!
It’s carved from a piece of mahogany wood I salvaged from a boat project. It measures 8 1/2″ long and the body portion is 3 1/2″ x 1 1/4″.
Highly sanded and polished to a silky smooth feel with a beeswax/mineral oil finish.

Satisfy your hunger with these appetizing strawberry cupcakes!
These are perfect little mini soaps perfect for traveling. There is sea salt in them making them perfect for a mini spa or face soap, but you can use it as regular soap as well! And you’ll get 3 of them!
Not sure what WHIPPED soap is? Well its a process very similar to Cold Process soap making, the only difference is that instead of melting the solid fats, you whip them into something that looks a lot like cake frosting! I’ve been so tempted to taste it!
The soap is scented with a strawberry fragrance oil.
Hmmmmmm!

Have you booked a little cottage lost in the snow? What’s better than playing cards!?
These tiny cards were bought from a charity shop before the seller then decided to give them a new lease of life as well as a new home.
