Summer Strands

May 5, 2014 by jessica Leave a Comment

I know I should appreciate spring rain, but five days of drizzle last week left me so desperate for warm weather that I’ve been seeking out summer in unlikely places. First, there was a Gray Malin splurge as an early birthday present for myself. (The Bondi Beach print is the first piece of “real” art that Dave and I have agreed on. Milestone moment, yes?) Then, a pair of pendants that invoke a day at the beach: a KALAN by Suzanne Kalan gem in an oceany hue and a delicate arrowhead necklace from Golden Thread. I’ll admit that an arrowhead motif was a bit out of my comfort zone, but I’m glad I branched out. The attention to detail is really quite impressive (as you’ll see in the photos, the front and back of the pendant are both carefully designed) and the designer is an absolute gem (you’ll learn more about her in tomorrow’s “Behind the Baubles”). It’s the first thing I’m packing for our next sandy escape.

I’m challenging myself to get through a backlog I’m challenging myself to get through a backlog of travel photos before we book our next trip. First up, photos of the gothic York Minster. I’m not religious in the slightest but I can’t resist stunning architecture and the opportunity to climb hundreds of cathedral stairs for a city view. This one only had a single rest stop about halfway up the flight of 275 steps for a closeup view of the flying buttresses — and a waiver you had to sign before your ascent to promise you’re healthy enough to make it.

Visiting York earlier this month put us in the Hal Visiting York earlier this month put us in the Halloween spirit. While it claims to be the most haunted place in Europe and is dubbed the city of a thousand ghosts, we only encountered the wire-mesh sculptures of Ghosts in the Gardens (@the_york_bid) and the family of souvenir ghosts I brought home from @yorkghostmerchants.
