Remember when everyone was complaining about winter being SO LONG!? Well, summer is now in full swing here in Ohio! As a family, we have been trying to make the best of these long, hot days. We love to camp and very much miss the ocean, gardening and pick-your-own produce have been wonderful adventures for us. So, one day, during my many day dreams and various thoughts that pop into this crazy brain of mine, I decided to play with some beads that I was super excited about.
The flecks of green in these orange beads got me all excited (yea - I know - it doesn't take much haha!). I knew exactly what I had in my stash that would be perfect with these glorious, sunshiny beads. I was kind of in a funk and this necklace just cheered me right up! It has, by far, become my most favorite summer necklace. I will be sad and thrilled to see this one sell. Sad because it's so lovely and brings so much cheer to me on days I feel gloomy but thrilled because I just KNOW someone else will love wearing it for the same reasons!
So, as I tip my frosty glass full of homemade smoothie and watch another beautiful sunset, while the air cools for another evening of pleasant darkness, I say to you, enjoy your summer to the fullest! Revel in the sun. Feel the warmth on your skin. Splash in the coolness of a river, ocean, or pool. Relish the time with your family, hugging them extra close and squeezing them extra tight until they squeal with delight. Take time to bask in this glorious season of plenty, provision, warmth, and refreshing for soon the air will cool again and the sky will darken, heavy with snow and trees bare of color. Soak it all in while you can for it will be another year to pass before the opportunity comes again.
