Noonday Collection wonderfulness

have you ever noticed that when something exciting is going on

there seems to be a load of exciting things occurring

simultaneously?

so much so that taking a moment to absorb it all

has to be pushed back just a bit?

well, i'm almost to the point of being able to absorb,

as the last week has been a whirlwind!

thank ya'll for all the words of support

for my new adventure with Noonday!!

i love everything about this company
& love that while wearing beautiful handmade items
i'm helping to support another person in another country!

 praying i can figure out a way to head to Guatemala with them
later in the summer & meet some of the artisans!

the goodies i purchased for my trunk shows arrived last week

the girls & i had a blast playing dress up!

i wanted to share a few of the goodies with you
& let you know, if you wanted to order anything for a Valentines gift,
all orders placed by 2/5 guarantee shipping by that date.

ps, there seems to be a little confusion,
you can order directly from my site,
you do not need to wait until there is a trunk show to place orders.

i hope i don't overwhelm ya'll with all my noonday talk ;)

inca steps necklace is beautiful!

& it's their top seller.

made from tagua seeds by artisans in Ecuador.

here's a little love from

my very first customer ( i love saying that..& thank you carissa!)

the hand warmers  pictured above are super soft &

hand knitted from alpaca

the belts are my favorite!

Each belt is embroidered using ancient, heirloom quality techniques. The artisans are women in poverty stricken rural areas with very few opportunities for employment. They usually work at home with their children playing nearby .

the bull horn cuff above~

A unique take on the trend for richly textured, chunky jewelry, these cuffs are hand crafted out of bull horn. These one of a kind cuffs are a classic and timeless. The horn material is recycled and supports a small, family business located in the slums of Lima.

( fyi, the small is tiny, fits carolines. medium is shown above & fits me perfect)

i have two favorite necklaces

one is shown above

& the other should arrive monday!!

gold deco earrings

tagua seed bracelets look great worn together

if you satisfy the needs of the oppressed,

then your light will rise in the darkness,

and your night will become like the noonday
