ELEMENTS OF SUMMER BLOGHOP 6/16/2013


Thank you Toltec Jewels Our Host, for creating this blog hop  For my element I chsoe water..  The
 Reason you may ask
 Well here"s the story:

I was born in Miami Florida I was brought to swim and enjoy the gulf, the Alantic ocean lakes and pools
amd was in the water just about my whole young aldult life.  I swam at ventian pool in Coral Gables and just about called the pool my home until 1980.  the water was my energy my peace .  no matter where I am during my diffrent stages of life I am drawm to water.  My Family is spread all over New England and the east coast  my mother painted the when I was in my 20 somethings.  you see families can be drawn to the water.
Hawaii is so beatuful the color of the water reminds me of turquoise and ble topaz I loved being able to swim in the Pacific eventhough it was just for a few days .  Water can help heal your heart an regenerate your soul.
This necklace was made due to the need to feel like I was near the water it is made with pearls , crystals , , and rough amythest and the focal is a a Sarowski starfish  it is the third necklace I made .   Eventhough it is simple just beading and stringing it is me just a simple girl longing to get back to her water

    Enjoyed your story of swimming throughout your life and the many places you have done it. Am sure that necklace has a deep meaning for you.

    Gina,

    Your necklace is simply beautiful! It's an honor to read about your love of water, your years swimming in the ocean and Coral Gables. I'm drawn to water also, and now living in Florida, finally feel at "home" here.

    I agree families can be drawn to water; how special you and your mom shared a love of the ocean!

    I love the light, gentle colorway of your necklace and the Swarovski starfish must glisten like water in the sun! Much love to you my dear sweet friend! Thank you for sharing your special, lovely jewelry and celebrating summer!

    Love and thanks,
    Rita
