Inspirations
Original descriptive Inspiration label
in every Gift Box
Cape Breton Island has
captured my heart and soul with its scenic beauty,
long enduring history
and its people - who continue the tradition of caring and courtesy.
I am
inspired by the sights and sounds of the sea, the rocky shores with
its
coastal birds and the
winds blowing through the lush green forests.
The words emerge with
the observations whispered to me by
God and the Celtic
Fairies. Can you hear them?Amber Glow
Crystal Bead Wrap. Mornings begin as the sun's golden orb rises
from the
Atlantic horizon, spreading rays of amber sunshine and crystal clarity
on land and sea.
Blue Fog Cat's Eye Wrap. Quickly without warning, fog rolls in
from the sea, creating swirls
of lightest blue diffused with white mist, revealing hints of clear
images shrouded in mystery.
Blue Storm Cat's Eye Wrap. The ocean has many moods. Calm seas
swiftly turn to churning
indigo darkness. Perils are sent and prayers are heard by Poseidon and
God.
Blush Rose Cat's Eye Wrap. Spring arrives with an abundance of
wild flowers. In shades of
blush rose, the intoxicating aroma of wild roses bring promise and
hope for the coming year.
Celtic Green Crystal Bead Wrap. Countless shades of green
ripple through Cape Breton
from the Highlands to the Lowlands. Trees, shrubs and ferns glisten
with clear morning dew
while droplets of rain create prisms of crystal moisture on green
leaves.
Coal Miner Black Glass Bead Wrap. Decades pass as generations
of coal miners bravely
descend into the dark bowels of the earth beneath the sea, to
laboriously extract the coal
necessary for their survival while providing "those above" with fuel
needed for home and industry.
Fresh Water White Pearl Wrap. The sea has
many treasures to offer and its gift of food may
hold a surprise. Oysters in salty sea and fresh water inlets -
iridescent pearls nestled in their
shells - await the lucky ones who will discover their hidden jewels.
Fruit Cocktail Crystal Bead Wrap. Mother Earth offers an
abundance of fruits and berries
along Cape Breton trails. Raspberries, blueberries, strawberries,
green and yellow apples
sparkle in the sun inviting hikers to dine on their delights.
Heather Mauve Cat's Eye Wrap. Gaelic history wraps its arms
around our Island encircling
land and sea with her Celtic Spirit. Images of Scottish heather mauve
and clan tartans are
conjured as pipers serenade enraptured listeners.
Irish Green Cat's Eye Wrap. Across the Atlantic the Emerald
Isle emerges from the mist.
At the harbor, hopeful travellers dream of a new beginning - Irish
courage and traditions
adding another enduring layer to Cape Breton's Gaelic history.
Ocean Blue Cat's Eye Wrap. The sea entices the watcher with her
shifting tones of blue.
A panoramic glance discovers warm shades of aqua marine meandering
through cool,
true blue aquatic vistas, creating a scene of wonderous beauty.
Panther Black Pearl Wrap. Dense, unexplored forests abound on
Cape Breton.
Hidden in her tree enshrouded splendor are peering eyes and wilderness
sounds.
A sleek panther may stride through the Highlands - anything is paws-ible.
Pink Sunset Crystal Bead Wrap. As the sun sets, ocean,
shoreline and land is embraced
with a soft pink light - a comforting pastel reassurance before
darkness descends and
enfolds our Island with nocturnal mystery.
Rain Drop Earrings. Life giving rain splashes down on rocky
cliff and rock strewn shore
recreating ancient shades of black and charcoal grey.
Sage Mist Glass Bead Wrap. Abundant trees offer home and safety
to fur and feather
dwellers. In morning mist or rolling fog, towering evergreens
transform into sage mist sentinals
guarding and protecting Cape Breton Island.
Seafoam Green Cat's Eye Wrap. Thunderous,
crashing waves cresting above the
green tinted sea, send bursts of white frothing foam onto shore and
rocks while droplets
of clear moisture explode into the salt scented air.
Siamese Blue Cat's Eye Wrap. In purr-fect accord we stroll
along the shore - feline with
human companion. He pauses, to absorb the moment, Siamese blue eyes
gaze out to sea
reflecting the wisdom of the world.
White Cloud Cat's Eye Wrap. Coastal and inland horizons are
enlivened by ever moving,
ever changing clouds. Swirls of white, melding with infinite shades of
grey, part to expose
the warmth of the sun or densely gather to warn of the coming storm.
Coal Black UNISEX Collection. Far beneath the earth, mining
tunnels echo the sound of
picks, shovels and laboring voices. Time has changed this subterranean
symphony to dark
penetrating silence but the attentive listener can still hear the
memories resonating from
the coal black walls and ceilings.
