"Happiness is a butterfly, which when persued, is always just beyond your grasp, but which, if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you." Nathaniel Hawthorne I listed these pretty butterfly earrings today.  They feature honey yellow jade beads, gold plated pewter butterfly charms and 14K gold filled wire.  You can check them out here:

In addition to being practical, scarves also add flair and colour to an outfit, making them a multipurpose accessory.  Additionally, there are numerous methods using a stylish scarf to change the way you look. You can knot them in a ponytail, wear them as a belt, wrap them over your neck, or wear them as a top. There are so many styling techniques to explore online. This is a vintage 1970s skinny scarf by Vera Neumann. For more details, I have listed it in my Etsy Store.  Take a look.

I've had a few visits from Monarchs lately but this time I had my phone in my pocket so I got to take a photo of two travelling together and getting some nectar from my coneflowers which they need for their migration.  The ones that we are seeing now and heading south are one generation.  Several generations later these amazing beauties make their way back to their breeding sites.

Inspired by the dragonflies zooming around my yard this summer, I made these earrings today with copper wire and I'll soon be photographing and listing them in my Etsy Shop.
