I Dream in Color

Monday, April 4, 2011

I often have the most amazingly vivid dreams.
Sometimes as surreal as a Dali painting, sometimes quiet and understated.
But ALWAYS in the most incredible palette of colors-
some which I don't think I've ever seen in "real" life...

I chanced upon a stone a while back that blew me away and instantly I thought of my dreaming life. Where it might actually be possible for a butterfly to be born out of stone.
I crafted this lovely with that image in my mind.
Coupled with a quote from the Beatles, it couldn't be more perfect:)

Chasing Rainbows

Thursday, March 17, 2011

Waking up to sunshine was glorious! The way the light filtered in was beautiful; the new green of my plants seemed greener and they greeted the day by stretching towards the light. 
Just like Georgia and I:)

We spent the remainder of the morning sipping tea, basking in the far too absent sunshine and chasing the rainbows that seemed to glint and glitter all over the room:

The Pacific is Calling...

Thursday, March 10, 2011

I've been a little homesick lately and, hence, missing the SoCal shoreline terribly. 
I am a slave to the Pacific ocean, you see.
At least I have an abundance of treasured memories to sift through.
For instance:
A breathtaking Zuma beach sunset - the beach was set aflame by the sun- made even more incredible by a pod of 7 dolphins frolicking in the surf!!
Had I not pinched myself, I might have thought I was dreaming:)

These longings have transformed into a deep love for a stone called Larimar.
The color reminds me so much of my beloved ocean that I'm starting to wonder if somehow the sea is being held captive in stone.
It's beautiful. 
Period.

Scrumdiddlyumptiousness!

Sunday, March 6, 2011

I had to share some photos of my newest stones!! 
They are insanely beautiful- at least I think so:)
Oh, and don't ya think that 
scrumdiddlyumptious 
is just the best word ever?
 Drusies make the world go round:)

 Laguna agate with a perfect, petite white heart on it's side!
Coyamito with ketchup and mustard and sagenite spraaaays!

 Agua, Coyamito and Laguna, oh my:)

 I'm so in love with this rock! I call it my "Lovers Laguna". Can you see the kissing couple in the center of the stone? Swoon...

 A gorgeous Ethiopian opal with fire for days!
 2 more drusies- one can NEVER have enough of these babies.

 A lovely Owyhee opal and a stunning Plume agate. 

Lastly, Morgan Hill poppy jasper. Yum.

Also: My one year Etsyversary is coming up!

Thank you guys for a whole year of loveliness!

***********
Pink.
Unicorns.
Forever.

I will always believe. 
I will never cave to the mindset of the "adult".
I will forever blow bubbles, marvel at the stars 
and see dragons and hippopotami in the passing clouds.

Life is better this way, believe me:)

Later gators,

Lovely Thing #1

Monday, November 22, 2010

We all need a little loveliness now and then...

That's a phrase that I repeat quite often. I've decided to share some lovely things in life that make me
 swoon, 
 smile, 
laugh,
blush,
sigh,
etc.
Lovely thing numero uno: Snow!
A fabulous storm blew through today and I couldn't resist a little frolic..












Anyone else feeling happy, winter-ish and ready for the holidays?
Me thinks I need a steaming cup of apple cider right about now...

xoxo,
