Today I am out and about. I wanted to wear my copper enamel pendant with this sweater because the colours match almost exactly - coppery and greens and a touch of sea blue.  

But you can see that the piece disappears when worn on top of the sweater.  

So I tried my carved bronze pendant instead. You can see it so much better against the green and patterns!

I think this is the best for both the pendant and the sweater.

With this big blue sweater, I am loving my bronze carved jewelry. They off-set each other nicely.   

The neckline on this sweater makes it easy to wear the larger pendant over top, so it can be seen.  And there is enough room in this bracelet to put it over the sweater as well.  

And then once I remove my glasses, I can really let my hair down!

Today was a great day for geocaching.  

And leaf crunching.

I paired up my bronze bangle and bronze cuff just to see how they would fit together.  Then I went out geocaching, tea drinking and journal writing.  

What a lovely day!

No sooner is Halloween over and the Christmas Craft shows start to appear.  I walked over to one at the local church to get in the mood.  

However we are still having beautiful fall weather.  Even though we had one of the coldest Octobers on record, the sun is shining and it does not feel like we are headed into winter.  At least not today.  

Even the show was decked out in fall colours.

It was a beautiful fall day today.  Sunny, and a little on the crisp side.  

The leaves are gorgeous right now.  I had to bring some home and decorate.  

And what is the best jewelry to go with autumn?  Well, I think my bronze necklace is a great match!  

I will be releasing bronze pendants like mine on my website soon.  Want to be the first to know?  Sign up to my email list and become an insider.

At the day job today and surrounding myself with some of my favourite things.  Like Winnie-the-Pooh, a favourite from childhood (bag made by my friend).  

A mug of tea, Spice Dragon Red Chai, in this fantastic mug by Franziska that I got last year at a holiday show.  

And my bronze jewellery.  So versatile, it, even goes with tea!
