I’ve made more than one design called “organization” because it’s a constant process, but this one is “organized”. It’s the dream. Small bits of my life and my space are in fact getting organized. I can manage about one square inch a week, so a pendant is just about perfect.

Every time we see my in-laws we’re each given a bag of goodies. Everything from sweets to travel-sized toothpaste to jewelry, it’s all the things that my mother-in-law has thoughtfully collected over the past months. And my goodie bags have extra special things in them; broken bits that need to become part of something new. In the most recent bag there was a piece of hematite that became the center of this pendant. It look like it was carved like a shark’s tooth and hung in a finding, but the finding is gone, and it was just a stone. Each of the goodie bag gifts comes with a story, relics of a time gone by or a trip taken. And here are a few, to create new stories together.

It’s been HOT out this week, and I’ve been so grateful that we live just a short bike ride from the local pool. It may be scorching hot in the sun outside the pool, and the screams and splashes of kids in the water may not allow the calm, relaxing swims that friends go to local ponds for, but in the middle of a lunch break, it’s a pretty great stop. For those of you in the Boston area, find this pendant and many more at the Artbeat festival in Davis square this weekend!

Last week was fireworks, but this week, on the actual 4th of July, we’re zooming in to one single firework. It’s not the colors that amaze me as much as there being lights in the sky, and I love when they spread out and each little ember breaks into hundreds of tiny new ones.
