Today, I sent my eldest off o school and took on a playdate for my youngest who starts school on monday. Then, while best mates played, I devoted my afternoon to updating my Etsy site. I also chased my husband to fix my website so that I can get back into it and update my showcases. So far, nothing is happening with the website dramas. At least I can rely on Etsy! Here are a few of my listings.

I Dream Of:: The Northern Beaches
Living in the Northern Beaches is a gift. Almost as precious as these two little gifts here. Every time I say, "lets go to the beach" they cry about how they don't want to leave the house, after dragging them to the beach, they cry about having to leave.
I believe that I would react the same way if my husband said we were packing up and leaving Australia. I really wasn't excited about moving to Sydney. But, it is days like these with my boys around me playing, getting all this fresh air and sunshine and the Pacific Ocean displaying colors of Aqua and Turquoise against the Coral beaches that I think "I love it here." Knowing that my beloved San Francisco is across the sea is just a comfort. Although, I kicked and cried about having to leave the city and people I loved, I will kick and scream just as hard if I ever had to leave my new home. Is it possible to have your heart in two cities?
My boys climbing the rock at Whale Beach. The surgery went well and my little guy has been a trouper this summer wearing this hot head gear every time we are near sand or water.
It isn't the best photo, these were taken with my iPhone... But I love the rocks at Whalely. The whales come up against the rocks just past this point to give themselves back rubs!! haven't seen it yet...

I Dream Of:: Fresh Ideas
Unfortunately, my necklaces are on hold as I am waiting for the shipment of findings. So here are some lovely little things to look at that I did create...
This is the last necklace I created before my supplies ran out. I just love the neutral colors and the feel. The pendant is Serpentine with Yellow and Green Jade, Labradorite and Sterling Silver Chain.

I Dream Of:: a line of sweet clusters
Today I started working on my new line of necklaces. I really enjoyed the necklace I sold this christmas and thought designing a few more would be fun.
As I woke up this morning I started taking down my christmas decorations and putting together colors and ideas. Yes, it is a bit bizarre to take down christmas decorations and create something at the same time. But De-decorating makes me sad and creating makes me happy ....
These are a few clusters that I came up with this morning. I also have a wedding order coming in July. Do you think she will love the pearl cluster? Imagine that on a white organza ribbon... Devine
