But I'm back today and featuring some beautiful aquamarine goodies. Aquamarine derives its color name from the phrase water of the sea - hence the title for my post today. Eau de Mer is French for water of the sea, and like seawater, today's featured color draws upon the richness of both blue and green for its wonderful hues! Here are my picks of the day
Since this shade of bluish green (or greenish blue, whichever you prefer) goes so nicely with many different colors, it's an excellent accent color for...

So, are you convinced of the beauty and versatility of lovely aquamarine? I hope so! If these few beauties have whetted your appetite for aquamarine, these shops have other items in this color range as well, so be sure to stop by and browse through the wonders you'll find there!
Tomorrow I'm planning on posting another great one-on-one feature with a great chainmaille artisan and then Wednesday, I'll be answering some questions from you all about crafts and the business of selling your crafts in the handmade marketplace. Since I received the same questions from several people, I'd be happy to receive your questions about jewelry design, selling supplies, how to choose a website to sell on, SEO, why social media helps, or any other question you might have! Just contact me with your question, and if I don't use it tomorrow, there's always a future week. If you have a question that I can't answer, I have a wealth of friends with expertise in a great array of crafting fields that are glad to help out as well!
Hope today finds your week off to a wonderful and productive beginning :)
