Summer Lovelies

I don't usually add Etsy treasuries to my blog....but I found some beautiful creations and had to share!

Lightening Bugs

Oh how I miss these wonderful, herald of warm summer night bugs!

Thoughts going back to being a kid and catching them just before bedtime in a mason jar. Punching holes in the lid, adding a little bit of long grass and carrying them to my bedroom. Setting that jar on the night table. Then getting the PJs on, turning off all of the lights and laying there watching them light up the jar.

So many nights of falling asleep with these simple pleasures to dream about...

Bumble Bee's and Daisies

I'm not sure that I'm ready for summer, but I love summery things. Splish splash at the pool, flip flops...lemonade... Weather forecasters state that in some areas here it could get as hot at 130 degree's. Thankfully I live far outside the city and not in those spots that get that warm. To celebrate summer I'm making some wool cuffs, lined with silk (to keep those wrists cool). This one I hand embroidered with daisies and one single bumble bee ...I can hear him buzzing now! You can see all of my cuffs in my Etsy Shop.
