I Heart Earth!


Happy Earth Day, everyone!

I've been very busy lately at work (rushing to wrap up my classes at the end of the semester and now, giving and marking exams) but I couldn't resist saying "Bonjour!" and showing off my son's art : with his school, he participated in a project where kids were drawing on grocery paper bags that were then distributed to customers at the supermarket on April 22nd! I thought his "earth" was very pretty even though he apparently did not have the time to color the seas and oceans.... ; )

Tea time in an English garden....

... that's the name I wanted to give to this collection but it might be a bit too long! Maybe it will only be "Tea time"... or "English garden"... I'm still thinking...


Jade flowers, soochow jade beads, peach Swarovski crystals... and Vintaj natural brass for the earrings... perfect for tea in the garden, right?

Birdies

It's pretty chilly outside but it's officially springtime and little birdies are tweeting and flying around everywhere...


Little birdies are also back into my Etsy shop in lots of colors (light yellow, teal blue, sweet lavender, warm red...) with one of my favorite designs : my "Dans les bois" necklaces, featuring adorable handmade polymer clay birds and beautiful wood beads (dark tiger ebony or warm honey-colored bayong).

Swarovski crystals give a sparkly touch to the composition.

A cute little canary...

The Spring version of "Le jardin du peintre" featuring Czech glass flowers and a silver sparrow framed in a tiger ebony rectangle and hanging from a black leather cord and a very pastoral brown leaf ribbon...

Tweet, tweet...
