Say Yes To Yellow

My friend, Tim Adam, the mastermind of the Esty Handbook to Handmade, is now leading the charge on Twitter with weekly postings of his top 10 picks from a variety of Etsy shops. This is his new 'Lunch-time Shoppers' series and Tim has them posted on his blog. These are his top 10 picks for this week. I am #6, 'Say Yes to Yellow'. Beautiful yellow citrine glass beads gathered together on a gold tone connector, hung delicately from a 14k gold filled chain. These are light and fun! Just shy of 2" with the 14K gold filled hook. There is a definite left and a right so that these beauties face forward! Check them out in my Etsy shop!

Autumn Hydrangea

Autumn is in full swing in New England. Although, I have to say, my impatience, my overflowing impatience in my window boxes, are still hanging on. These are photos of the same hydrangea which I took during the summer. Their deep purples, blue tones and green hues make for quite an eye full. I have cut them back and have them hanging upside down on the wall right above my computer. For me, a very symbolic sign of entering into the new season!

My Mom is doing better and is in a brand new wing of the hospital for pulmonary/cardiac rehabilitation. She thinks it is so beautiful, that she may not mind staying for 2 weeks! Sense of humor, still intact!. Thank you all for your well wishes and prayers for her. I simply cannot thank you enough.
