Olive Season....

Olive is more then just a colour, it can be a way of living!  I've been eating olives for as long as I can remember and use olive oil daily.  This fruit to me conjures up images of the Mediterranean and eating fresh (see salad above).  The wood of the olive tree is also beautiful!  

So the above treasury is inspired by both the colour olive and the fruit, warm climates and good simple living =)

Here are my olive earrings, made with freshwater potato pearls =)

These earrings are available here!

Enjoy =)

The Good Life....

It doesn't really take that much to make me smile.  The simple things in life like food, things that smell nice, a little sunshine and being outdoors, for example taking a walk, can make you feel good.  I think I'd make quiet a good hobbit =)

 Walking beneath the leafy canopy of tall trees is something I love doing and eating chocolate orange cookies is another favorite.

So the above treasury is full of delicious finds, with lots of art and bits for the home.

Handmade & D.I.Y Weddings......

If your a lover of handmade then you should really pop over to www.Etsy.com if your planning to have a handmade wedding or just looking for inspiration or wedding gift ideas.

   I love the idea of painting your own wedding cake toppers!  My friend used Wonder Woman and Spider Man figures on the top of her wedding cake as the couple are Marvel lovers =)

As for wedding favors, my favorite finds are little pots of honey pots and featured in this treasury are little heart shaped lavender sachets.  I love lavender!

I made these lovely Akoya saltwater pearl earrings, which would be lovely to wear to a wedding and can be worn every day afterwards =) 

The style is very classic and would look great with nautical outfits!

Getting Zesty......

 

It's been hot hot hot here in the UK!  Too hot really in a country that's really designed for colder weather.  I really wish we had 3 months of school summer holidays here like they do in a lot of other countries, then we could make the most out of this weather.  My daughter's last day of school is tomorrow, so we are planning to visit the seaside sometime soon.  

So here's my treasury filled with zesty summer energy with lovely finds in bright Lemon, lime and orange.  You'll notice I've included a couple of cute finds for babies too.
