It's probably not often thought of as a colour combination that works, but I absolutely love the colour combination of pink and orange.  I think it's a stunning combination, a bit bold, cheerful, reminds me of summer, a mood booster - and colour does affect your mood.  If you mixed the two colours together you would get pink.....and I love pink too.  I look to nature to find colour pallettes to work with and sometimes I just have to open my back door.  These are the fall berries of Euonymus fortunei.  A happy bit of colour in my fall garden.

Chunky statement jewelry never went out of fashion. Some women love a fun, bold fashion bracelet like this bracelet that I've adorned with carnelian nuggets, Czech glass beads and Karen Hill Tribe silver charms. You can see more pics here.

This chubby little guy has quite the "outie belly button". It appears that I may need to alter my garden soil next planting season and perhaps not plant the seeds so densely, which I've done.  Soil that is too compact and seeds planted to close together do not allow carrots to grow straight.  But they sure are interesting to look at.

Gloves were once a staple in a women's wardrobe.  Now, because of the show Bridgerton, apparently they are a trending item.  So, what was once old is new again.  Although, for some women gloves have never gone out of style because they love everything vintage.   Well, for the women out there that have a love of vintage, these pretties are listed in our Etsy Shop.  These are late 50s early 60s white decorative nylon lace gloves that were made in Japan.  Take a peek.
