Magical Blue Pendant

Thought this blue pendant was just magical!

Beautiful blue color and love the inlaid design over it. 

Middle eastern style and it's a standout!

There is mystery, eloquence, and even some unapologetic sexiness to it.  ;-)

Ship+ In A Bottle

You ever wonder how they build that big ship in that little bottle. 

Someone needs very dexterous hands and a lot of patience to put the pieces through the opening of the bottle and assemble the ship inside. 

But this second grader, Dylan Yasseri, upped the game on this whole concept and imagined a whole beach in the bottle. 

The sand, ocean, sky, birds, crabs, fish, umbrella, and even the shack (snack?) bar!

This is one reason that kids are so awesome--their purity of heart and their endless imaginations make almost anything possible.

The fantasy becomes the reality. 

The colors are magical too here. 

If adults could maintain even half the heart and creativity of our children--oh what a world it could be. ;-)

X Marks The Spot With A Dot Dot Dot

Love this exhibit by Japanese artist, Yayoi Kusama, at the Hirshhorn Museum. 

Unfortunately, they were out of passes for this special showing, so I could only grab a quick photo or two. 

But I was amazed at how splashes of dots and color can make such am amazing impact on a room. 

Futuristic and yet surreal. 

Everything in the room--walls, floor, chairs, tables, fixtures, and ornaments--had the design elements on them. 

The only thing that didn't were the people checking it out and what a contrast that was. 

It felt like being in the fantasy world of Willie Wonka and The Chocolate Factory or something amazing like that. 

It is no surprise that people were lining up out the doors for tickets to this exhibit. 

What an spectacular vision for the world--so happy, so magical and so wow beautiful! ;-)

Flower In Water

I love this photo from today. 

There was a flower floating in the pool.

I couldn't help noticing how unbelievably beautiful it was. 

The white petals, the pink center, and the shaded blue water around it. 

You can even see the ripples in the water immediately around the flower petals. 

This is somehow magical and amazing. 

Thank you G-d for showing this to us on this wonderful day.
