In celebration of the anniversary and preparation of the move coming up, there will be A TON of items priced to go! I need more room and less to take when I move. Help me help you ;-)
For now though, I'm going to keep working on the holiday stock and getting some beautiful designs made up for you.
I've gotten back to beading a bit and I want to work stamped and beaded together as much as I can. I don't mean just birthstones, I mean full on beaded projects. Here's one I did today:
I absolutely love blue and brown together. I also have a fondness for pink and brown together (shh, don't tell anyone I like pink) and I've put together a few pieces. I'll be making new ones in a while along with a charm bracelet.
Along with the anniversary of the shop, I'm coming up on an anniversary that is the reason for starting the shop in the first place.
In 5 days, I will be at the anniversary of what should have been the due date for my first loss after my son, Noah. That sweet little angel is Avery. On Monday, I will be going to complete my tattoo that I have. I know the summer isn't the greatest time for getting a tattoo, but my connection with my artist is deep and I need her to be the one to complete it. I told her my story of the tattoo and she shared that she too has had the pain of loss. It was fate that she called my name and I will make sure she's the one to help show the world my love for my angels.
I still hurt every day. I hurt from seeing pregnant the women the most, especially those who are to where I never got with even Noah. He was 6 weeks early. I never got to complain of being "too pregnant". I never got to be miserable because I was too quickly consumed with fear of losing him.
My miracle and my angels are why I have this shop. They are my driving force. All of my children are my inspiration behind every piece I create. My Noah is why I get out of bed every day and my angels fill my dreams of them playing with their big brother.

Hi Keona,
your new pieces are so beautiful
your experiences, though painful, are beautiful and precious as is the way you have reached out to others through shared experience.
I'll say g'day to you on etsy, its been ages since I've said a proper hello, xxx Starry
I miss you bunches Starry! Your pieces are beautiful as well, they're so elegant and peaceful. I love staring at your shop and hopefully I can do some Christmas shopping soon!
Thanks for the giveaway on Mamma Days! I feel for you in your loss. We too have lost a baby. He just lived 2 months and I never got to take him home from the hospital. The pain is deep, but remembering becomes sweeter as time passes. They are so special if we have had them in our arms or not. God bless you and comfort you at this time. For us it is 26 years this summer. I can't believe it.
