Ocean Inspiration

From the looks of the beads and colors I am pulling out these days I must really be wanting some quiet time at the beach. Not that anything is ever quiet around here with four kids. At least when the wind is blowing and the waves are crashing in, it is a different kind of noise.

I made a bracelet last night that just screams ocean breeze to me. I gave it to a very special friend today so you won't find it in my shop (although when I get more beads I will have to make another one). My friend is moving across country and I didn't want her to forget the ocean. Not that she ever could. Of course I don't want her to forget me either.

I really hate goodbyes. My kids do too. They had one last play-date with their friends. They don't think it is fair that people they love have to move away. I don't either!
