More Mind Blowing Loveliness from the Talented Susan Goodwin

 Just some super beautiful images that crossed our email this morning as we're getting ready for our May Day Trunk Show with Susan.

Can not wait to see what she's got up her sleeve!

Susan Goodwin Jewelry Comes to Town

 The ever talented Susan Goodwin will be joining us for a trunk show next Friday at 2 and her work will be up until Saturday afternoon.

 Word on the street is that Susan has radically changed her display and I had a little sneak peek when I visited her in Carlton.  It's ephemeral and incorporates photographs.  Susan not just a great jeweler.
She's a talented artist who has spent most of her adult life living off the fruits of what she creates with her hands.  I have so much admiration for people who do that. Just stick to their one thing and ride with it as far and long as they can - constantly re-inventing themselves and, at the same time, staying true to who they are.

I always find something lovely for myself. And hope you come and find something lovely too.

Susan Goodwin Jewelry at Passionflower

 

  You might want to put this on your calendar.  Our Susan Goodwin trunk show starts the day after Thanksgiving and goes through Saturday afternoon.  We always like that we have what it takes in Eugene to show her the love.   And we definitely couldn't do it without you.  

As always , it will be spectacular.  Susan will be here Friday evening.  She's a wonderfully generous person (not to mention supremely talented) who has a knack for helping you find something just for you.

We are so looking forward to it.

Planning a Party at Passionflower

 You may remember my obsession with all things elderflower from this post where I wrote about the french liquor St Germain.

So it was pretty exciting to find this British infusion of elderflowers in, well just about my favorite packaging I've seen in a long time. Like if I were a bride I might plan my whole wedding around this bottle of bubbly water. 

 We have two sizes of the bubbly flavored water  - one for gift giving and one a perfect little single serving size great at weddings or summer parties. - And we also have  a "cordial" which is a stronger infusion calling for dilution with some lovely kind of wine or tea or fruit juice.

 And we are happily researching little elderflower cordial recipes as I write, because we thought they'd be the perfect little drink to serve up at Susan Goodwin's trunk show this coming Friday evening. 

 Elder is such a delicate, aromatic flavor - just right for contemplating the subtleties of Susan's magnificence.

Please join us for a sparkly fun time.

Friday May 31st from 3 to 7 or until 1 on Saturday June 1st.
