Simple blue vintage earrings for everyday style

blue earrings on brown rock

Sometimes solid colors just work best. Recently I was asked to make a pair of blue earrings. Just blue.

So the search was on for special blue beads to create with. Score! I happened on these vintage beads.
The top bead is vintage German glass from the 1930's. The bottom bead is vintage Lucite Moonglow 
from the 1950's. Vintage beads bring back memories of styles gone by. Retro treasures.

Looking back at jewelry through he ages alaways intrigues me. So simple blue earrings with vintage beads
are sweet and practical for so many everyday outfits.

Daydreaming about your future is the precurser to setting your intentions. When you have some ideas
about the direction you want to go don't forget the importance of surrounding yourself with people

Stress relief weeding and a cute ring

garden weeding with a copper wrap ring

Before Covid19 hit I may not have considered weeding to be something I actually looked forward to.
I have become obsessed! Now I'm constantly on the lookout for a new one sneaking up.
Like this weed peeking out from my blooming Lantana plant. Gotcha!

Our body, mind and souls can only take so much worry and stress.
During this uncertain time we all need some brain breaks. Thats where weeding comes in.
It's an opportunity to awaken other sensory perceptions. Your sight, smell and touch will thank you! 

Of course this starts with being lucky enough to have a garden or lawn area to provide this feel-good green
factor. But if all you have are few potted plants that works too.

My first in depth experience was such a pleasant surprise. What I thought would be
10 minutes of puttering turned into 2-3 hours of happy time. The satisfaction of digging in the dirt,
while the birds were singing, feeling the wind in my hair and sun on my face - all while getting good
excercise. I mean! (All of this may lead you to a nice hot bubble bath too)

It brings a calm, stress free contented feeling. Just simple weeding. I hope you can try spending some time
doing that or just nurturing your plants right now. It really is soothing.

And that hammered copper ring that is hanging out with me is coming soon. There are so many fantastic
benefits of copper. I can't wait to share those details with you too. If you aren't already on my email list,
be sure to join so and you will be the first to now when they are released.

             This aromatherapy bracelet is reminder that while the  clouds will come and go 
             blue skies will come again. And this bracelet works double duty when you add a drop

I see skies of blue and clouds of white

The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night

and I think to myself what a wonderul world.
