Saturday Shop Talk – Daisy a Day

"Daisy a Day"

Personality: Consistent and Thoughtful
Places you'll find yourself: Placing flowers upon the doorsteps of friends and neighbors, just to be nice and brighten their day

This floral cocktail ring was made from an antique button (title: Daisies, circa late 1800s). I was actually quite excited to have found this button in The Big Book of Buttons which helped me accurately date and label it. The button is gorgeous with a striated background, topped with a beadwork like flower in brass.

Friday Photo Swoon – Road Trip!

{photo source}

Mid-July, what to do, what to do? I know, road trip!! Summer break allows many of us ample time to get out on the road and explore the sights, be it with family, friends, or maybe a girls' only weekend! The photo directly below makes me want to grab some girlfriends and head out the door!

Do you take road trip vacations? I never really have before. We usually travel to see family or fly to some far away land for vacation. The hubs and I have never set off on a road trip, but we may need to try that sometime! Driving along a coastline or through national parks or maybe vineyards sounds pretty wonderful to me!

July, lady afire, breath heated and heavy, casts her blazing eye upon the earth, daring us to look away from her consuming glance, treading dangerously close to the edge of an inward flame.

Through the flashing bars of July."
