Fun Friday: Do you love to fly?

If you do, it'll definitely show when you put on this fun and semi-kitschy (in a good way) necklace from the wonderful, mind-candy shop that is little egret. $35, it's handmade and suspended from a string of pretty turquoise beads. It's definitely a great way to add some fun to your day, and if nothing else, is a reminder that somewhere there are pretty beaches, wooded mountainsides overlooking breathtaking valleys, quiet woodlands, or Grandma's back porch and a pitcher of lemonade waiting just for you. A very fun piece.

In addition to the plane necklace, there are similar pieces, mostly featuring critters, all handmade and $35 each:



So sweet and pretty, don't you think? They're sure to make many smiles grace the day.

In addition to fun pieces like those featured, though, little egret also offers dozens of truly lovely, elegant pieces of jewelry suitable for the dressiest of occasions, or even a gift for a bride-to-be or dear friend. There's this sublime daisy necklace featuring pearls and a blossom; the intriguing lavender garden necklace; and one of my favourites, the colourful yet sophisticated Anadem necklace.

It's terrific to see artists who create beautiful work, but have real fun with it as well, and aren't afraid to do things others may consider goofy or silly; those risks pay off all to often, don't they?

Have a marvellous weekend!
