So says the tea...

I love Yogi Tea, each tea bag has a wonderful little fortune on it.

Real happiness lies in that which never comes nor goes, but simply is.

Life is a chance. Love is infinity. Grace is reality.

Spotted on Etsy: Brick Bracelets - Connect With Fun

Jewelry designer David Haliski never ceases to amaze me. After stumbling upon his LEGO Minifig snowman, I took it upon my self to dive deeper into his world in bricks.

I found myself surrounded by his line of fun, fresh, and handmade LEGO creations called Brick Bracelets. The line is a true reflection of David's love of LEGO mosaics and sculptures!

The complete line includes gifts for all ages:

Unique and stylish LEGO bracelets


Colorful and funky LEGO rings

Retro LEGO Hair Clips - I love it!

Feeling hungry? Who's up for some McDonald's? Yes, this is an actual size LEGO representation of McDonald's popular Big Mac Meal. Cant you just smell the french fries? I can!

And for desert? How does an apple or banana sound? Yummy!

It's exciting to see a familiar toy being used in so many creative ways!

Here is a blurb from David's Etsy profile, please stop by and check out his amazing shop, Brick Bracelets, and get to know him a bit more:

In 2008, I rediscovered a passion for vibrantly colored plastic pieces that occupied so much of my time as a child. I decided to combine this passion with fine arts to create unique works of art. My direction is to further deconstruct contemporary, popular culture through the medium itself, LEGO. The pure, consistent color allows for a uniform and bold graphic style translating perfectly from my background in the graphic design and multimedia arts field.

Step aside Frosty, there's a new snowman in town: Brickbracelets' Lego Minifig snowman

Tired of the same old carrot and coal snowman?

Checkout the most amazing snowman ever constructed, a Lego Minifig snowman by Brick Bracelets David Haliski.

This is the coolest snowman I have ever seen. I am frozen in a state of awe and will forever be amazed.

Job well done David! Now if only there was a freezer large enough to store this baby so it can be kept forever! (sigh)...just my wishful thinking.

March has really blown in like a lion, eh?

Wooowzers, I cant believe its March already! Seem like it was just yesterday that I was ringing in bells for 2010 in Ghana. But in any case, I'm not complaining. I am ready to kick off my snow boots and run free in a field of new blooms. I know, I know, the weather forecasters are predicting more snow on Wednesday, but watevs!

I can already smell the scent of spring in the air. While I love the longer, warmer days, and the fragrance of fresh flowers spring brings, I love women's fashion in the spring even more. Spring is the time to indulge in your feminine side with beautiful flowing skirts, and stylish, flared gaucho pants. Blouses and shirts for spring are flowery and feminine and spring sandals are to-die-for.

Over at QuellyRueville, I've been making a lot of flowers lately and decided some of them were meant to star on their own. VOOWALLA!...A very unique and bold flower brooch.

These flower brooches are a perfect way to celebrate the coming of the new season! Visit QuellyRue Designs shop and get yours right away!

Hearts for Haiti by QuellyRueDesigns

Haiti's horrifying earthquake has left near-apocalyptic devastation in its wake. It's hard not to feel helpless while reading about the endless loss, the dire situation and the scale of reconstruction efforts to come.

Let’s open our hearts to the people of Haiti and help them to fly again! Every small bit makes a big difference! 100% of this purchase will be donated to Red Cross Haiti Relief and Disaster fund. Every small bit makes a big difference!

This fabulous tote bag and felt cozies has my signature felt birds and hearts adorned on its front panel. Each piece was hand cut and sewn on by me!
