hi love bugs!

I had a very full week.
and it looks like it will seriously stay this way until October, which I don’t mind one bit.
Tonight I’m supporting a friend of mine that is doing her very first burlesque show! Can’t wait to see it!
After working really hard this weekend on making new items, I plan on  my shop update on Monday morning, doing a photoshoot next week and starting to prepare my stock for Philadelphia Designer’s Market on April 17.

here is this week’s five senses friday -

hearing. the sounds of birds chirping and rain showers. my two favorite things right now. i love spring.

seeing. my beautiful friend Sarah do her first burlesque show.

tasting.trying hard to stay on my super healthy kick. lemon tea and kombucha. yum yum yum.

touching. lots and lots and lots of beads. love going stone shopping.

smelling. this super rich lip balm that the magazine/website the knot made. also my new bottle of olive oil that i moisturize with. yummers!

Don’t forget, tomorrow is Earth Hour 2010!
Turn off your lights (and all unnecessary electronics, really) for one hour this Saturday.
In the US, the time is 8:30-9:30p.
Click on the link to find out what time it is being observed in your country.
We absolutely must be more concerned with the health of our planet.
Just like we as humans need care and tending to, so does the earth.
If we pump poison and disrespect it continuously, it will stop loving us.
And we will be the ones who truly suffer.

Oh yah–and HOORAY! for health care!

bracelets, below.
a sampling.

i’ll be unveiling much much more over the next few weeks.
the categories might change a bit as well.
i have to be at the day job all week for the next two weeks so i’m not really totally as internet capable as i’d like.
however, that just makes this even more fun!

each week i’ll unveil a new bunch of goodies up for sale in the shop!

and the contests are coming soon!
Don’t you fret!!

thanks for coming along for the ride.

Tuesday I got to take part in my very first editorial photo shoot in Manhattan!
It was really exciting and I cannot wait to tell more–much more.

But a pictorial update will have to suffice, for now.

The lovely Mme. Stacy & I…

I was very annoyed at first with the blurry outcome of my photos, but for some reason I like it now.
I enjoy the mystique around it all. It adds to the mood.

Here is a sneak peak at what I created–and your glimpse into autumn…

heaps of
