Inspiration:

A quote from Kobayashi Issa, 18th century Zen poet..."In the cherry blossom's shade, there is no such thing as a stranger."   I was inspired by the yearly spring bloom of the Cherry Blossoms along the Tidal Basin in Washington, DC. Every Spring, thousands of visitors come together from all over the world to view the beauty of those blossoms.  In those few weeks of bloom, we are not strangers.

Le Joli

"Le Joli"

Handmade decoupage glass pendant of vintage Eiffel Tower print stranded with various semi-precious stones and glass beads.

Inspiration:
"Le Joli" is French for "the pretty one".  My inspiration for this piece came from a little boutique I found in Frederick, Maryland that specialized in vintage 1920's Paris style.  If you ever find yourself window shopping downtown, definitely stop by and take a look at all their pretty things on display.
