Swap!

first things first...i need to tell you about my brilliant swap partner donna keay. donna is from scotland and she designs jewelry. but not just any jewelry. AMAZING jewelery. look what i am going to order from her etsy site...i think these are just about the most gorgeous rings ever. and donna made them! LOVE these rings.

yesterday i came home from work to find a package waiting for me. hooray! everything was wrapped so perfectly. see:
inside: a beautiful, blank notebook, mechanical pencils and fine point pens and a little kit full of back to school necessities such as erasers, paper clips, etc. and my most favorite part...a tiny, little watercolor book. i was beyond thrilled.
and THEN to my enormous surprise and joy i found that donna had included some hand made earrings.
i fell in love immediately.
i highly recommend a visit to her personal blog and to her jewelery site, which is so inspiring. i wish i possessed such talent!

thank you millions!

and thanks to marta for hosting another fabulous swap.

Pumpkin Flowers

every year my dad grows a little pumpkin patch. this year, for the first time, i have noticed that each morning before i leave for work there are bright, golden flowers blooming on the pumpkin plants. at night when i get home from work the flowers have closed up.
