across thousands of miles and all the years you have lived.
-- Helen Keller
Can't sleep, I guess there's been a lot going on. I'm thinking a lot about memories lately, how they can come up when you least expect it. You can pass someone on the street and be thrown back into your past, catching the scent of maybe something your mother baked when you were little, or of a perfume worn by someone who used to love you. These perfumes all bring memories back to me, at least for a little while. I took the pics on a warm summer Saturday morning when anything was possible, or at least seemed more so than now in the dead of winter.

i have euphoria! holy moley.. u have so much perfume! I go through one bottle at a time. since ive been sick ive developed a really sensitive sense of smell and the perfumes i used to love - like euphoria are so strong and almost sickening! the only one i can stomach now is d&g 3 - a light summery fragrance.
hi Hearthandmade, sorry to hear you've been feeling sick! hope u feel better soon. u reminded me that i forgot to include one i received years ago: d&g feminine, but it's all gone now.
oh my you have quite the perfume collection! jealous!
PS. Your shop is great! I especially love the handwritten initial pendants. Very cool.
hi Krystal, thanks and thanks so much for following me! i MUST clarify though: the Etsy pics on my page are just a few of my favorite things that OTHER people have lovingly made that are featured on Etsy, not my work. i wish i could make all of those wonderful things tho!!
oh, but i JUST bought one of those initial pendants and it was shipped out by the creator today, very exciting!!
Woow, are these all yours!?! I love a love so many of these scents, like Calvin Klein euphoria :)
thanks, Helen, sounds like euphoria is popular :-)
