Have you visited Sulu-Design lately? If not, you should. Susan makes beautiful jewelry that she sells in her etsy store. She has an ongoing series of Original Intent posts where she shows a photograph that she took and then the earrings that were inspired by it. Not only is the jewelry stunning, her photographs are spectacular. My favorite Original Intent post can be seen here. I like everything about the inspiration photo, but I especially liked the earrings. What’s a girl to do? You got it – I bought them. Imagine my surprise when I opened the padded envelope and found not one, but two wrapped packages.
Here’s what was inside:
The earrings I ordered are on the left and my little gift is on the right. I adore them! Thank you Susan! You shouldn’t have (but I am really glad you did!)
P.S. In case you are wondering, the ankle is a bit better. I was able to walk today, but am still taking it easy.
How very sweet of her! Lovely earrings. I might have to go visit that store…
I’m so glad that you liked the second pair (you once commented that you liked a similar pair that I made based on the photo of my apartment reflected in a muddy puddle, I think). Thanks for the sweet post and for all of your kind comments. Continue taking it easy on that ankle. Perhaps you need a little bell so Fatty and the girls can come and take care of you when beckoned?
so pretty! even the packaging. i’m sure it was nice to get happy mail today!
Beautiful earrings!! My son came a cropper on his ankle yesterday and the swelling still hadn’t gone down today. So I spent most of this morning waiting, waiting, getting xrays, waiting. It looks like just a sprain, thanks goodness!!
Lovely goodies! Now I’m definitely in the mood for a little earring shopping myself.
Beautiful earings! Nothing like adding a new pair of earings to a t-shirt and jeans, and feeling like you have a whole new outfit! 🙂
I just ordered a pair the other day. I can’t wait to get them!!
glad to hear the ankle is better. love the earrings!
They are beautiful!
Isn’t it great when the product is as great as the person behind it? I like when that happens:)
Hope the ankle feels better soon 🙂
lucky you! I love susan’s blog…it’s so inspiring. she makes beautiful earrings.
