The good news

No bad news. I mean, sure there are not so happy things around here, sure we all endure something. But today we want to tell you about the good news. Or not even. We'll just tell you there are some good news. And it all consists in action. We're equally scared and excited. But someone once said that if your dreams don't scare you, they're not BIG enough.

That means ours are big. Or big enough for us. But the most important thing is that it is a beautiful dream. And it's reality. It's a real dream.

We wanted to say Hello again on our blog.


So hello.

What have you been doing? :)



                          LOVE,

Few thoughts on being stuck

Dominic Jones

There are times in life when you prove others and yourself what you can do. And again, there will be times in life when you'll feel and you'll be stuck. They will think you are lost and, most probably, you will think and feel the same. They will sense your fear. Most probably, you'll be scared. They will start asking questions. You won't know the answer. These would be, my friend, the hardest times.

They won't get you in those times. You won't get yourself. They will doubt what you can do. You will doubt yourself and what you can do. Past will mean nothing because people are good at forgetting that someone or something meant something at some point. And it is only natural to be so. Nobody owes you anything. But you owe yourself everything.

Inspiration will leave you. But it will come back. People will leave you. Only some will come back. There will be hard times in life when you will feel abandoned. Both by inspiration and people around you. Those will be the hardest times. But time is never against you. Only you can be against yourself. So let those times pass by your current feelings. Let those times prove you that nothing is permanent. And that it is okay for you to sometimes feel alone, abandoned, lost. Give time enough time to show you how things are changing.

Hang in there!

AUTOR 9 Contemporary Jewelry Fair | April 2013 | Bucharest

It was just so inspiring and revigorating to see so many talented designers presenting their creations during the 9th edition of the contemporary jewelry fair AUTOR. This is not a review, it's more of a subjective collection of what we wanted to remember later and share with our followers. However, Autor brought together more than 70 designers so this is a mere reflection of the beautiful jewelry one could have found there.

Oh, how we love to see and feel that a piece took hours and hours of work. The elaborateness of this ring won our hearts. And yes, we forgot to mention this: where there's a mineral rock, there's love from WOLF 25.

You can say just by looking at these amazing jewelry pieces by Doru Dumitrescu that love and passion for wood were reunited into something you just wanna touch, caress, admire and, ultimately, wear.


                                             NEVA BALNIKOVA

Needless to say, we fell in love with Neva Balnikova's creations. Huge rings, amazing bracelets (as is the one above), jaw-dropping stones, are you kidding us?! We were hooked!

When a designer follows his or her inner belief or intuition, you can see it in what they create. We believe this is also the case for Andreea Mogosanu, again, one of our favourite designers.



                                           FASHION MACHINE

They had as us at 'simple, clear lines, everything with a twist and attention to details'. At least this is what we said in our mind when we first saw the two designers behind Fashion Machine.



                                        MADALINA STOICA

You know what caught our attention here? Seeing the designer Madalina Stoica playing with this ring. Yes, you can play with these pieces in such an ingenious way that you just have to see for real one of these great rings and do some tricks by yourself. Loved it!

Unfortunately, we couldn't find a photo with the incredible white rings we saw during the fair, but we hope those will be posted soon on the website. You could still see, however, other beautiful pieces. Fragile love, we'd say. Beautiful, we'd add.


                                    WOOD REPUBLIC

 OK, so we have minerals, silver, tricky forms and love for wood. Yes, love for wood. When we discover that the designer knew how to listen to the wood's lines, how the end result equals love for wood, well, yes, we give all our appreciation.

Although this is obviously not a jewel, it nevertheless caught our attention. That's because we also love cactuses. And terrariums. And aeriums. Boy oh boy, looks like we love so many things.


But of course. Didn't you know that by now?


                                                           LOVE,

You were given so much LOVE. Use it wisely

Barbara Bologna

For those who are afraid of a word, this is what we mean by "Divine": all the knowledge we have to acquire, all the power we have to obtain, all the love we have to become, all the perfection we have to achieve, all the harmonious and the progressive poise we have to manifest in light and joy, all the new and unknown splendors that have to be realized. - Mirra Alfasa (the Mother)

LOVE

It's up to you. YOU have to LOVE everything you already have, your friends, your family, love that you wake up in the morning or that you wake up and it's late noon, love the way the light casts shadows on your wall, love music, any sort of music you love, but love it, love how you learned to forgive and forget, love the way you make your coffee or your tea, love who you are, what you do and the people around you. love the fact you are still able to say I'M SORRY and be forgiven. love the morning fresh air, love the 6 am, the 7 am, love the shop right around the corner, the trees and the cats and the dogs on your street, the cars, the too many cars on your street, love the fact that you are walking through them, love the fact you have a destination or love the fact that you don't have one. love today the same you loved yesterday and love what you have now because that is called GRATITUDE. love that you are here now because you are exactly where you need to be to go anywhere you want tomorrow. love the fact you can love, love that you can prove others that love still exists, be KIND, be genuinely kind. love to love, love what you made so far, love what you haven't done yet, love the people you haven't already met. at times you'll do mistakes, you'll love people who will hurt you. love that you can learn from all the experiences and love some more. love to trust people, love that you can be honest with yourself and others and, man, just LOVE.
