Fresh Air, Sunshine, Sweet Candy

Our bathroom renovation project is still going on.  After preparing the walls and left it off for a more than a month vacation (I can't really complain for this), D and I picked up the project last weekend, and now the tiles are nicely installed around the tub.  But we were so amateur that we didn't clean up after grouting but leaving it dry. 24 hours after, we found ourselves climbing the brand new tiled walls with a sponge soaked in hot vinegar on the left and the tail of an old toothbrush on the right hand working as hard as possible scraping off the overposed joints. oh yeah.

It could have been a beautiful day.  The sun was up, we arrived at Parc de Bercy at noon, found a big tree, got installed, and unwrapped a chorizo sandwich I prepared at home.  Sprinkles of rain didn't even bother us at all as we were protected by the tree.  The beautiful date finished at the frogpub at the bercy village. We hung out at the covered patio looking at the parisian walking back and forth the village, the rain never stop them from being gorgeous.

I couldn't stop sneezing the day after, it might be the mix between soaked by the rain and working too hard on the walls (D works five times harder than I did, but hei I am a girl) If not, it could be the product of me leaving yoga behind two years ago. I should get myself together on working out really.

Yesterday, after feeling better, I had so much passion to restart what I left off last week, I made two big necklaces but this time I will just talk about one. Pink and nude statement necklace It's even already up on etsy.


This time it is different from the stackable tiny little collection.  Still with bunch of color though.  VoilĂ  after finding a couple of smooth-polished fibered citrine from the turquoise necklace I made a long time ago, faceted hexagonal rutilated quartz, smooth round cut watermelon quartz, saying hello to the peach baroque fresh water pearl I've been saving for a good designing occasion, and thinking about a white muslin shirt with a low cut.  In short: fresh air, sunshine, sweet candy.  I wonder if it is still summer where you are at?

Another one would have to wait until I have more time to reveal. But in the mean time, an everyday collection that worth peeking... All season black Y short necklace, silver long necklace with offwhite seed beads and swarovski opal, and lastly my favorite, the hand forged dangling earrings. 




They probably will be up in the store soon next week.  Enjoy your weekend!

Happy Thansgiving!

A couple of weeks ago, we visited, again, Parc de Bercy, yeah we can't get enough of dead leaves. There is something magical about the falling leaves, not the dead.  The soft warm color of autumn.. Everything is beautiful, even the sky, and the special flower that blooms just during this time of season...

My Husband was too excited and took almost all corner that he consider gorgeous.  Consequently, it is kinda hard to see him not aiming for a second.  Sometimes he would leave me alone with my park and concentrate on his object.  Sometimes needs model for his backdrop.  In that case, I solve his problem.  I am his most truthful model (as he is my truthful photographer).

Well, I came prepared, with the gorgeous hair, soft make up, and, of course, I brought some of the jewelry.   I told him, I will model for you, if you take the photos of the jewelries.  Well, he couldn't say no too often.. so obviously..

So, after being told to pose this and pose that, here goes, in my opinion, the best four. You'll ask where are the jewelries? I guess my sweet photographer focus too much on the cute face and the autumn leaves...





In that case, he owe me a light box! uh? where did that come from? umh, somewhere... 

Please have a good weekend! And spend your money wisely on the black friday. And, oh, eat your turkey wisely! Happy Thanksgiving!!!
