Wearing Sunshine

While, honestly, I may prefer rainy days to sunny ones, I recognize that might not be the norm - and it doesn't mean I can't appreciate a nice sunny day sometimes.  Sometimes feeling the warmth of the sun on your skin is just what you need to turn a bad week around or create a bright mood for the day.  I'm convinced that having to take the dog for a morning walk every day when I lived alone during grad school significantly helped me keep my mood up.

And considering I tell Nate he's my sunshine, well then, I just have to like sunshine.  (I sing the "You are my sunshine, my only sunshine..." song to him... well, I try to - I usually can't get through the first line before I start choking up.  Sigh.)

So for those sunny days - or to brighten your mood on a cloudy day - here are some beautiful sunshine necklaces from Etsy:

I love this one.  It's so subtle - the beads representing the sky and sun over the silver tree branch.  I want this one.

I don't think I'd wear this one... I'd like to think I would, but maybe I just like to think I would... but regardless, I like it and if I saw it on someone else, I'd admire it.

I definitely wouldn't wear this one because I don't wear gold or goldtone jewelry, but I like the design a lot.  I would definitely love to have her Wood and Turquoise Owl Necklace, even though it's a bit bold for me.

While I would or wouldn't wear other necklaces, this one I'm pretty sure I couldn't wear because of the ribbing I'd take... since I'm just not Little Miss Sunshine.  But I did adore those Little Miss books when I was young and I think this necklace is really cute.

I love this one.  Love love love.  And I love her shop, too.  This Peapod Necklace would be great for a mom.  The Cupcake Ring and the Let Them Eat Cake Necklace would be great for your favorite baker, while this Chainmail Cuff is just really awesome in general.  This Cursive Love Necklace reminds me of the keychain in the first Sex and the City film.  But her Sunshine Necklace is just particularly inspiring.

I hope you're having a sunshiney day!

I totally love rainy days more than sunny ones. Especially thunder stormy days. Ah. I relax so much better!

I now have to go take the test posted in your previous post....
