belle amitié

The most beautiful package arrived in the mail yesterday....

A gift from The UE!

"A little gift for that special day and a thank you for the years of beautiful friendship....

The wise owl, the drop of ocean water, the blue baubles of laughter (and the same shade of MJ's hair), a feather for the lightness of being....(in that non-cheese zen matter--think more Milan Kundera)."

A handmade necklace by The UE with help from beautiful Bella!

You know me so well. It's absolutely BEAUTIFUL and I will treasure it always, always.

Merci, mon bel ami!

Missy Foo loves it too!

so nice to know it got to you safely,(quickly) and you figured out how all the dangles dangle. YAY! i'm so pleased you like it. i think in my attempt to describe what the feather stands for...i totally ruined it. sorry. but i'm confident after years of our HSM lunches you get the idea. or better yet we'll leave it to kundera to say it best: "Intimate life [is] understood as one's personal secret, as something valuable, inviolable, the basis of one's originality."

i do hope you can get plenty of wear from it...and if it falls apart...you have your own personal jewelry maker!

missy poo is a darling!
