Strands of Pearls also celebrates some of my favorite things- curling up with a book that makes you forget which century you are in, watching any Cary Grant movie, reading cookbooks, poking through antique shops in search of whatever you are collecting this week, planning the perfect getaway, buying a new bag, redecorating your home and maybe even your life...and oh if you are going to spend time with me, there is a good chance you will be knitting!
Please come visit when you can. I will share my favorite finds from my favorite places in life to play. All things irresistible, inspiring and full of joy!
