Happy Holidays!!!!

 I wish you all Happy holidays with love!!!

Since August...

Good morning to all creative spirits out there!!!! I'm still struggling to find a balance between work and obligations and my presence in our wonderful blog neighbourhood... 

At last...I'm back!!!!

My dear frineds, I made it at last!!!

Communication breakdown...

Hello dear friends!!! I hope you are all doing well !!! I just wanted to let you know that I'll be away for a while due to technical difficulties... Our computer broke down, so I won't be able to be consistent with my blogging until we can replace it...

Take care and don't forget to smile!

Love,
Maria

A smile can go a long way...

Hello my dear friends!!! Are you wondering where Micra is?

Better late, than never!!!!

Good morning my beautiful friends!! I know it's been a long time since my last post, but here I am now, with all new and colorful creations!!! Today it's mostly pendants and just one pair of earrings... Enjoy!!!

 As I was uploading these pieces in my Greek post, I started singing a summer song... 

 

 

Lovely song, right? 

A pendant I made using a shell from the wonderful beaches of Chios....

 And a pair of earrings...

How else could I end this post, than with my lovely girls...

Sweet Micra sends her love... 

Have a wonderful weekend!!!

Love,

Maria

Dreams' sequel...

Good morning!!! I hope you are all doing well... I hope that you're dreaming, that you're smiling...

Rainbow dreamcatchers and awards

Good afternoon!!! Even though the weather is rather indecisive (to rain or not to rain), I bet my money on rain followed by an amazing rainbow!!!
So, here are my colourful dreamcatchers to help you catch the rainbow!!!! Dreamcatchers  were first made by Ojibwe Native Americans using willow hoops and senew or cordage made from plants. They would hang them above the beds of the children to filter out all the bad dreams and let only the good ones pass through the center hole of the dream catcher. The bad dreams would perish upon the first rays of sunlight...

Today's dreamcatchers don't have feathers, but I've made one that does and I'll take photos soon!!! 

 If you'd like to make your own dream catcher, you can find instructions here.

Here are two of my girls, fighting with the camera cord!!!

Last but not least, I'd like to thank sweet Katy from ergahandmade for the lovely awards she shared with me!!!

Lots of love,
Maria

Jewelry & Micra

Micra is easier to photograph than Sophie or Rita, so before I show you my latest jewelry, here is my lovely girl once again... :-)

Bracelets at last!!!

Rings again...

Good afternoon!!!

Welcome SPRING!!!

Spring is officially here and hopefully we will feel it soon, as well!!

I apologize for the absence...

My sweet friends, I would like to apologize for being absent for so long!!! I have been taking care of my mom, since she had surgery 15 days ago and my time is very limited, so no jewelry making or internet for me for the next couple of months.Thankfully, the surgery went well, but my mom will be staying with us until she gets better, so that I can take care of her. I tell her that she is my little baby and we have lots of laughs together!

I'm so sorry I haven't visited your blogs for so long and I hope I will be able to do so, soon.

Take care!!!

Love,
Maria

Have a lovely weekend!!!

Good afternoon!!! I don't have a lot to say today... just a few jewelry pieces and my wishes for a wonderful weekend!!!

 

The earrings are based on the design from the green ones of the previous post, with only minor differences apart from the different colours. 

Have a wonderful weekend and cherish the ones you'll share it with...

Love,
Maria
