I find myself scouring the jewelry sections of so many stores. I absolutely love the chunkiness of this season's jewelry. *I like big things...lol* The jewels are gorgeous and paired with the most elegant pearls, ribbon and metals that I've ever seen. Even chain stores are buying into the craze (I saw jewelry displayed in Old Navy...Old Navy??) I just looked...as I do with most chain store finds and thought...hmmmmm! I could get this tailor-made for me to my liking. And the designer (that resides in the creative reccesses of my mind went to work jotting ideas. By the way, I imagine her sitting on an ottoman with a pencil and pad) ...Please, don't ask!!!
My friend Karen is the most amazing jewelry designer--EVER! I love all of the pieces in her "little yellow box". She makes the jewelry out of the most unconventional items for a one-of-a-kind feel. Now, don't get me wrong, it looks like a million dollars and she does it so effortlessly. *I'm so jealous* She called me a few months ago and told me that one of her pieces made the cover of a magazine. At that moment, I felt like I won something...I am her biggest fan!!!
***That's us on my birthday. She came to my party with a box with that bracelet inside. What a gift!!! You'll never guess what the flower is made from. Her earrings were made of ...oh! By that time I was on my 5th?? bubblegum vodka and sprite. lol***
Thank you for your inspiring words, and your support. There are people in this world that just dream. But we will live in the reality of our dreams like walking down a snow covered road with purple roses blooming along side of us. You have a beautiful mind.
