Makana (gift) for the Halau (school)

Been working on a few things, one of which was a donation to the raffle for our ho'ike. Here is a pic and description: Sculptural glass flowers in the most delicate colors of rose pink, marigold yellow, and white coconut, adorn this lovely necklace. Coordinated with sterling and fine silver .925-.999, and Swarovski® crystals. This was truly created with aloha as the original was a gift for our halau hula's first ho'ike (recital). Hope you like it whomever won it:)

Local Hawaiian Jokes

Finally finished something new. That flu bug thing made its way to me but happily, it was a quick one. So here's something in blush (rose quartz), golden brown freshwater pearls, and sterling silver hammered square toggles.


Here are some more jokes for you:

I had a bunch of Canadian dollars I needed to exchange
so I went to the currency exchange window at the local
bank. Short line ... just one guy in front of me.

The guy in front of me was a Pakay guy who was trying
to exchange yen for dollars and he was a little
agitated ... he asked the teller, "why it change?
yestoday I get two hunat dolla fo yen - today I get
hunat eighty? Why it change?"

The teller replies, "Fluctuations."

The Pakay guy yells, "Fluc you white guys too!"

Dark circles and sluggishness = Girl Scout Cookies????

These late night posts are starting to affect me. There are dark circles under my eyes, sluggishness during the day, and lovehandles around the waist. Oh, wait a minute, that's from the girl scout cookies:) Alas, nothing that a little/ a lot of coffee and makeup won't fix. At least there is only one more day til Friday. Here's the matching necklace to the earrings "Morado". I still need to write a description and something fab that will entice you into purchasing it. Of course, you can save me from the work and just buy it anyways:)

Desserts to die for

It was my two year old's b-day a few days ago and we went to Red Ribbon, this delish Filipino bakery. We usually have the (to die for) Mango Cheesecake but this time the kids wanted Chocolate Mousse. I wonder if their employees get to eat cake everyday. Maybe I should get a part time job there:)


Anyways, here's some custom necklaces recently done. Hearts are always a classic, no matter what time of the year.
