Finding Nature


There are days it seems we miss out on the wonderful gifts of nature. Its something that in the past faced life we now live in we forget to take it in and enjoy it.

Just because we are busy does not mean we can not enjoy it in our life.

We can satisfy our eyes and thoughts with a simple beautiful Artist captured take on nature. At one time that is all there was for humans was nature. You could bring the look of nature add a frame or carry it in your pocket to take out and just enjoy. Like with this one of a kind ACEO from Walk in the Woods. You could get lost if even for just a few moments in the life of this leaf, what story could be told, where could it take you on a journey of thoughts, and solitude, enjoying this little moment each day of your life.


Wear a pieceof the past and take in how the world once was. This beautiful necklace created by Ladyhawke.Designs

Ammonites are related to modern day octopus & squid, they lived in ancient oceans about 400 million years ago.

Not only a piece of the earths history but the conversation piece and one of a kind necklace you could enjoy.





You could capture nature in your home at night after
long busy day, with a hand poured soy wax candle by Skyline Candle Company

Moonlight Path is a perfecting ending for the day, it will remind to take that moment and enjoy the glow of the moon the sparkle of the stars, the time when all you looked up and saw all stars, what a relaxing feeling nature has to offer us.

Though you may not be able to be out in nature itself, there is many ways to bring it into your life, by artist that have uniquely created and aroused our sense with just the beautiful touch of nature

Exploring utensils, yes really utensils


It amazes me when people look at everyday things and create something wonderful unique from them, preserving them to history.

Its like owning a piece of history not only a handcrafted item.

What a conversation piece. Take for instance this beautiful bracelet from Village Boutique it is the "Le Louvre" pattern circa 1888. 1888 was a leap year, In Germany, 1888 is known as the Year of Three Emperors, It was the blizzards that hit the Dakota Territories of the Americas. The National Geographic Society is founded, The great blizzard of the Eastern States of America. The football league is formed.

The British Parliament passes an act that permits bicycles on the road, on condition that they are equipped with a bell that should be rung while on the carriageway.

Berta Benz
arrives in Pforzheim, having driven 40 miles from Mannheim in a car manufactured by her husband Karl Benz, thus completing the first "long-distance" drive in the history of the automobile. Mary Ann Nichols is murdered. She is considered the first of Jack the Ripper's victims.

U.S. President Grover Cleveland declares the Chinese "impossible of assimilation with our people and dangerous to our peace and welfare". Delta Delta Delta was founded at Boston University.

How cool is this and this isn't all, not only is this a beautiful piece of jewelry you are purchasing and collecting its a piece of history, it is quite possible this spoon hand could of been at any of these events, apart of history.

You could start your own little collection of history with any of these wonderful items. It fun to be able to find a piece you love and then look up the history of the item. Here are some more artist that offer some wonderful pieces. What a unique gift that you could give this year, and also put with it your own little paper of the history of the piece.
