HOLIDAY BAZAAR THIS WEEKEND!





Come see T-love and many other fabulous local designers selling their creations! The good thing about this Bazaar is that it's happening over two week-ends, so if you can't make it this week-end or would rather do some "window" shopping before you make the plunge and buy a gift please stop buy!

This is a great opportunity to buy friends, family or lover a very special locally made one-of-a-kind gift! You will NOT be disappointed.

PLUS T-love will also have some Awesome hand made Christmas ornaments made from folded vintage wall paper and jewelry. Perfect for a Hostess or Mom gift! (stay tuned as this week Lady-Love holiday will be launching our blog for these ornaments)

Peace and LOVE!

Double Happinness Earrings



Chinese ceramic ware is an art form that has been developing since the dynastic periods. China is richly endowed with the raw materials needed for making ceramics. The first types of ceramics were made about 11,000 years ago, during the Paleolithic era. Chinese Ceramics range from construction materials such as bricks and tiles, to hand-built pottery vessels fired in bonfires or kilns, to the sophisticated porcelain wares made for the imperial court.

Although probably not from the Tang Dynasty these double happiness beads are very popularly seen in most popular Chinese ceramics and jewelry, I even bought myself a full necklace of these beads while I was in Hong Kong !

Sterling silver.

15$
