Yesterday, Glamourkin's [livejournal.com profile] mermaiden unveiled the first installment of 100 unique inspirational art pendants. They're extraordinary. The story behind her project to make 1000 of these Glamourkins is heartwrenching and sweet.

Will you buy into someone else's dream?

I did. This one, out of the whole batch, called to me the most. I cried when I saw it. Much like a tarot reading, it answered an unspoken question in no uncertain terms, a bit of self-doubt and "Should I do this...?" that I was dealing with yesterday. I should.

If you bought from this update, which one was it that caught your heart? :)

Just got 'Drunk on Sylvan Dew' to add to my faerie collection. I don't wear them, but they decorate my studio and inspiration board.

I was feeling wealthy from the wedding money, I got 3 ;) "Awaken the sacred story," "In her sea," and "We meet in midnight caves." Yay!

"Meet me at Moonset" is mine :)

I actually learned yesterday that if you put all my Glamourkins together they make somewhat of a story!

Oh Rachel... I went back to that one over and over, time and again, and I kept thinking maybe it was "the one" but this little voice in my heart kept telling me "No, not this one - this message is not yours..."

I am so glad the message and you found each other!

PS
Mine says "A Hymn to Sunrise" and perfectly encapsulates my joyful memory of singing outdoors on Easter morning, watching the sun come up over the horizon as we made music, singing of joy and rebirth in the early dawn. It is PERFECT.

Oh, no! Well, if you ever want it back, I'd be happy to share. :)

(I love "A Hymn to Sunrise". What a wonderful fit for you! :))

Ha! All those checks! :D

I especially loved the image and balance and space of "We meet in midnight caves". This whole update, really, was spectacular. :)

They are so worth it. The wood has such a satiny quality to it, that in person they make for very nice touchstones. :)

Oh no, you mistake my meaning! I loved it but somehow knew that it was meant for someone else. I am delighed that it was you!

:) I got "This time is the only time" and "Dark path, dark wood". I have a thing for owls, lately. And really, this time is the only time ...

I can't wait till they arrive.

I am waiting to hear back from my hubby about some of the pendants I reeeeally like but I've pretty much decided I shall buy at least one from each 100 lot and will probably aim to buy one per month.
