BRACELETS

Fond memories of the Emerald Coast. The hues of green to turquoise water, a celebration of weekends past, getting lost in day hikes, and delightful serenity of exploring the snowy-like dunes.

 Formal love, declared in a scene of natural beauty. A ceremony on the beach, breezy and warm. Walking in stride white sand cool to the step. Bowtie and taffeta now, bathing suits by 3pm.

The delight of  'wrapping yourself' in natral, light, glamour while enjoying the waves.

Warm sun rays, the smell of generational cooking from 'da yard' , rough banter -- all in love, the setup overlooking inviting blue waters that invite us all in.

A graduated beaded design, “down-to-earth glamour”, the look she was going for. Classic silver accents, a nod to her traditional nature. Slightly romantic, charming, and confident.

She was maaauvelously happy! 

 "My family comes from such a rich heritage, "Out of many, one people." My brother is proud of his roots and equally so to have celebrated another year of life, love, and family. "

The tuscan-style tile, the only remaining original feature of new place called home. This was also the  same pattern and scheme that reminded her of those chairs in her grandparent's home.

A heart that lives to explore from fin to feet with a courageous outlook on life, embolden by the possibility to live life above and below the surface.

 The easiest and most beautiful things you can do for yourself and everyone you meet--be natural.

 Life and death are inspiring in their own ways. Dedicating this piece to my grandfather, a man whose character, a remarkable combination of strength, integrity and humor, have been cornerstones of who I am today.
