Give More Than You Get

I love this saying...straight forward and true.

You give but little when you give of your possessions. It is when you give of yourself that you truly give.

Since purchasing some fabulous Labradorite last week I have been creating earrings using the stunning stones. I think they are the perfect everyday stone, lots of sparkle with that surprise hint of blue.

 Heading to the flea market to see if I can covet any treasures, then picking up our college boy for an early dinner. Hope everyone is doing well on this sunny Sunday.

I am rolling once again!

I finally feel as though I am back into the groove of life, I am back to driving ( 5+ long weeks since surgery) and I am especially liking that since I have a new ride. We found what we had been looking for and finally broke down and made the purchase last week. A very sweet Volvo XC90 in navy blue. 

So where did my new ride take me yesterday?...a bead show in Nashville. Here is my sweet little stash.

 Do you think I am stuck on one color? I just can't help myself, my hand goes to them like a magnet. The dealer at the show told me the tube shaped beads were some type of Opal but I think she is wrong, I am thinking Amazonite,what do you think? 

I go to this show especially for A.D adornments.I love stocking up on filigree and her chains ( all though a little pricey, but so gorgeous!)
