What Makes My Heart Skip a Beat...

Quite simply...anything beautiful...meaningful...or full of passion...

And...the recent news that I won this amazing giveaway from Mira of Belle Blanc...

I was so thrilled about this...I cannot even begin to tell you...

Then I decided I couldn't even wait to get these beautiful things here to photograph for myself and asked Mira if I could share some of her lovely world here with you. For those of you who have yet to happen upon the beauty at Belle Blanc......well...you are surely missing out!

Mira generously allowed me the opportunity to share some photos from here blog here, and I am doing so to entice you even further to head her way and get to know her. She is such a beautiful, kind hearted, and creative soul. And even though the ocean separates us...her words and impeccable photographs speak volumes...

 

 

I even had the pleasure once of sending her a pair of my Lotus Sage Earrings and look how beautifully she captured them here...

 

Every single post Mira shares with us is filled with the things I mentioned above no matter what she chooses to share...whether it be her beautiful interiors, favorite music and books, or family and friends...she captures it all with grace, beauty and passion.

 

Thank you Mira for the bounty of inspiration you so lovingly share with us all through Belle Blanc...my heart truly does skip a beat with each visit ;)

Hello again dear Alice,

I forgot to tell you how much I enjoy the music on your playlist, and I was especially blessed today by hearing New Again. Thank you for sharing that. It really spoke to my heart. I am so grateful to Christ for His love and sacrifice. We are so blessed to have Him in our lives. I could not make it one day without Him.

Much love to you!
Paula

Everything is so beautiful! The photos, the beautiful things that are in the photos, I went to her blog and I cannot translate, so Alice, if she has a Website or an Etsy shop to purchase some of her Originals, would you let me know? I love the earrings you gave her too, so sweet. Happy Sunday, looking forward to your Shop reopening, you always inspire with each creation and special touch. You are one of a kind!
