ON MY RADAR – 4’18

What I love this month:

The weather has been so beautiful lately
– I can’t help it –
I’m dreaming of summer, sun, the ocean, shells and sand.
There’s nothing like listening to the ocean!

“The three great elemental sounds in nature are
the sound of rain,
the sound of wind in primeval wood,
and the sound of outer ocean on the beach.”

 – Henry Beston –

ON MY RADAR – 2’18

What I love this month:

“Just imagine becoming the way you used to be as a very young child,
before you understood the meaning of any word, before opinions took over your mind.
The real you is loving, joyful, and free.
The real you is just like a flower, just like the wind, just like the ocean, just like the sun.”

Don Miguel Ruiz

Lovely jewelry made in coastal California.

Each piece is handmade. The artist Jen Goff uses traditional craft techniques like weaving, ropemaking and braiding and combines these with natural dyed fibers and hand-hammered metals. I’m really intrigued by the mix of the different textures, the golden hues and the combination of metal and fibers.

What I love this month:

Say less, listen more.
Work less, sleep more.
Judge less, love more.

… and the different shades of pale pink – so elegant and calm

ON MY RADAR – 1’17

What I love this month:

a brand new year with lots of new goals and ideas!

I know there is snow on the ground at the moment,
but I’m thinking of the time I visited Arizona – thinking of the desert, cowboy boots and hats, cacti and adventures.
