Buy all the things!

Today, I went to the Hague with my mom and sister. They have several special shops in The Hague, the Native American shop and Natural Choice (the shop where I bought my butterfly, see previous post), for example. I bought several things I would like to show you.

I love beads, especially beads made of wood, bone or glass. The beads in the pharmacist jar are made out of wood and painted in natural browns. I bought the candleholder in the same shop; it is just a heavy stone with a hole in it to put a candle in. I appreciate this simplicity very much, in my opinion nature is the best without any additives. The feather is from a jackdaw.


Beads I bought in the American Native store. I love this small shop, it is full of naturalistic things and handmade things from the American Natives. 

Those beads are made of glass, copper and buffalo bone. The blue one on the left is aquamarine, the two red, round ones bamboo coral. I will use them in dreamcatchers and small needlework. Aren't they wonderful?


I keep those beads seperately in a small, glass jar. 


I also bought a few stones in a home decoration store. I have no idea where I am going to use them for, so I am still waiting for some inspiration!
