When spring arrives and sun-kissed delights sparkle in the air, the joy of nature invites you to relax and enjoy the sunlight, and ask your loved one “Voulez-vous dancer avec moi ce soir?” all the while surrounded by gardens full of flowers. After hours spent dreaming in green fields covered with morning dew you whisper to your loved one, “what a beautiful day”. This was Orna Lalo’s inspiration for her Summer 2010 Lalo Treasures collection, The Birds and the Beads. The perfect summer accessory. The earrings are hand decorated and made out of resin which makes them light, comfortable and easy to wear. There are many more color schemes and designs available together with matching necklaces bracelets, rings and pins. Retail prices range from $30 up to $240.00 The earrings retail for $65.00. Lalo Treasures is distributed throughout the USA and Canada by African Express, a 20 year old distributor of designer jewelry. Continue reading →

If you have been around my blog any little bit since AppleBlossom was born you may know that I’m breastfeeding. It is not something that I talk about much, but it is a fact. Now at almost a year old, we’re still making it. No idea how long we’ll go, not really worried about that. What I do worry about is pretty and proper coverage, which I often get with my wraps and slings and also my Nurf… but that’s another post for another day. Continue reading →

EPT Keepsake Case 2[1]

It was probably around the end of the year in 2006 when I really started trying to get pregnant and noticing that I was not. It was two years later when our blessing happened. Every morning I had been using an ovulation monitor and then within the right amount of time testing. The moment I knew, I did not believe it. It was just another morning, checking the tests again. But it was so much more. On my bed, I just sat there saying “Thank you thank you thank you God!” I took two tests just to make sure and … Continue reading →

As a hand quilter and as person who cross stitches (in my spare time…) my fingers get pricked quite a bit and it just a part of the trade. When it has been a while, and I go back to it, there is always a day or two of sore finger tips until I can get a bit of a callus to protect it. Yet all the time, my saving grace for pain has been udder cream. I first discovered it in the check out line at a craft shop and now I cannot hardly live without it. Just rubbing … Continue reading →

Yet… a blessing of pregnancy and then breastfeeding I’m still waiting on that next menses to come around. (Oh trust me, no hurry here! I am quite happy to be period free.) *Thanks to Tracy of GladRags I was blessed to receive three … Continue reading →
