Handmade Jewelry from Peru
A jewelry designer from Peru, Alida, of Alida Joyas has come to my attention recently with her unique style, which features mostly Sterling Silver combined together with Peruvian natural stones, leather, etc (among other material) resulting in simple, yet stunning creations:

In one of her eye catching collections she has created jewelry using color pencil slices!
You can visit her online shop at Etsy right here: Alida Joyas, or visit her blog ( alidajoyas ) to read more about her

Here's a picture of her sketch:
And here's a picture of the final product (with only one small variation, which was pre-aproved by the buyer):

Stop and smell the Daffodils
Daffodils are in season now here in the Mediterranean island of Cyprus. I got these wild ones growing in my garden. Wish you could smell them! Their pungent perfume is so exciting and intoxicating at the same time. I dare say I picked the bulbs from a field a few years ago, which in my opinion is a form of preserving this species, seeing that the whole island is being built up so much, soon we will have no wild life at all!
