My new-est bracelet idea, with minature art pendants and beads, and chain and wire. Wrap it 4x, wrap it 5x and clasp it shut... it shines and shimmers, and tinkles and clinks, and there's always something different to look at....

Do those things that make you happy.
Do those things that make you want to get up and do a little happy dance.
Do those things that make you feel 5 years old all over again. Remember bringing home a drawing that you spent an afternoon making in kindergarten, a drawing you loved making from start to finish, to give it to your Mum.
Do those things that make you grin so wide, that your eyes get squinty and your face feels a little stretched out afterwards.
Do those things that you put at the bottom of your list, because there's more important things like: balancing the check book or picking up the dry-cleaning, sweeping the kitchen floor or meeting a deadline. Turn the list upside down, and do the *fun* things that might be at the bottom of yours too.
Do those things that you wake up thinking about.
Do all of those things because they feed every other little thing you could possibly have on your list of must-do's, to-do's and need-to-do's.
Do those things that you are moved to do because they feed your soul, your imagination your spirit and your chi.
Just do those things . . .
Thanks Liz!!! I needed this today...

For a fashion addict like me, those things matters. I can't go out without any necklace or accessories. That is the life of fashion girl.
