birthday money well-spent : how to give back to friends who are oh so creative

10.29.2010















i know how hard it can be sometimes to choose
out gifts for people...which often results in cash gifts.
i received a few such gifts a couple weeks ago for my birthday...
and i knew exactly what to do with that richness:
purchase beautiful jewelry made my creative friends.

i bought this necklace from marie at le voyage creatif {her etsy store here}.
i have worn this necklace just about every day since it
arrived so prettily in my mailbox...
i admit that i have another one on the way, all the way from norway
{you really should see marie's posts about her home...i sure wish i was brought up in norway!}

anyway, i like supporting friends who make such wonderful things.
don't you?

Norway is spectacular! There are so many breathtaking views around every corner. It seemed so magical with all the rainbows, waterfall, and troll statues. You and Ceej should plan a trip to Norway. I know you would love it. What I really meant to say, before my pro-Norway dialogue, is that your necklace is absolutely great!
