New Roots and Feathers jewels...

There is a slew of new work in my Roots and Feathers shop, and still more to come, hopefully tomorrow.  Im in love with this last batch.  I decided to group them into categories to showcase them on here.  Although most of the dreamcatcher/mobiles are from the past few weeks, I dont think I ever really featured them on the blog.  Im quite in love with each one, and the fact that each one is one of a kind. 


There are lots of new bottled feather necklaces, and more to come.

I pretty much want to keep each of these earrings below..

and some of my favorite necklaces so far.  this line has really just blossomed from within.  i feel so at home with it.

Tomorrow I will be featured on one of my favorite blogs, and I cant wait to share!  Today was mostly just work, although I did squeeze in about half an hour of hooping/dancing to my asian roots music cd.  The best workout b/c it is so fun!  Ive actually sort of given up my real workout all together, its been over 3 months since Ive even touched my workout dvd.  eeek.  Its an ebb and flow kind of thing with me.  

James and I are being wild tonite and staying up past midnight since he doesnt work tomorrow.  He even made lattes at 9 pm.  

PEACE,

New bottled up pretties...

Im about to be listing some new pretties in my Roots and Feathers shop.  These are sneak peaks of the finished versions.  I thought they looked so pretty together before adding the rest of the necklace parts.  I added a few new things the other day too.  Its looking mighty nice in the shop!


I had to take miss Violet up to the vet today to spend two nights to do her second part of her treatment.  It was sad dropping her off and we miss her already.  But she is in good hands.  Today has been full of getting things done.  I organized all of my paper work from the last 6 months.  Yep, that's how far behind I was!  Got my desk all cleaned off.  Worked on orders and photographed a bunch of new jewelry.  Now time to edit and list!  I also made a list minute decision to join a super amazing group of girls who are selling their wares at a local shop in New Braunsfels.  You can read Shauna from PPP's post all about it here.  Im so excited to be among them, and now I have my work cut out for me, oh my!  I have just two weeks to get a whole collection made for the shop!

PEACE,

Feeling loved...

Yesterday I founded myself flooded with love from people.  Made me realize that those bad apples that seem to come up in my life from time to time are nothing compared to all of the amazing people I have found in my life, at home and on the internet.  I feel very blessed to have made some of the connections I have in my life.  

I received these very good smelling incense from an online friend yesterday.  They smell yummy and she had them packaged up so lovely.  And the words written inside this card I will cherish forever.  Thank you Hillary.

My bestie recently took a two week trip to California and brought me back these rocks and shells from the beach.  I love them.  Reminds me so much of my mom.  And she also scored an amazing collection of vinyls the other day and gave me a few, including my favorite Neil Young album.  I cant wait to get a frame and showcase the inside artwork in my house! 

A super sweet girl named Taibi sent me this wonderful little leather pouch that reminded her of me.  I think it is just precious.  And a while back she also sent me the amazing little art piece below.  She is definitely a talented girl. 

These were actually birthday gifts from a special friend.  I was pretty overwhelmed with her thoughtfulness in these gifts.  This amazing cookie jar is from the 60's, and no telling how old the singer embroidery is.  I am just enamored with them.  There were also a few other goodies in there.  Thank you Staci, you are indeed a sweetheart.

Thank you girls for your amazing hearts and thoughtfulness.  I feel it.  

PEACE,
Laura
