Flirting With Yourself

Flirting With Yourself
100% Sterling Silver, 100% made of hands and heart.

When I woke up this morning I decided to make something that made me feel beautiful.

Something that felt like grabbing a fistful of sunflowers while thundering down a mountainside.
Like wearing silver heels in the backyard just to watch the light glitter.
Like winking at a boy in a big truck because yours is bigger.
Like arching your back in the afternoon sun.
Like putting on lipstick even though no one is home.

And so, I did.

By the way,
Have I told you today that you're beautiful?
YOU
ARE
(period)

a short story:
once there was a beautiful dove with glorious curls named umber who read her blog comments and said, "ouphka! everyone loves my sparkly shoulder duster earrings, so i will make more for them because they love them so." and they all sparkled and glittered happily ever after.
the end.
