DIY Baby Favor

Having a baby is a life changing event for anyone anywhere in the world. In the middle eastern culture a baby boy is like welcoming the king to the tribe. Things have changed but still there is always a double sparkle in the grandmother and grandfather eyes when it's a baby boy. Ready made baby favors go above and beyond, that is how we welcome our new family member. Here is a custom made DIY favor that we designed for a baby boy.

Hummingbird addiction

Peonies in our garden

Well the light pink one smells like ward joori (ward means rose). Ward Joori have a strong rose smell we use it's petals to extract rose water, make rose ice cream and rose petal cupcakes.
Today, I learned that antz help peonies bloom, If my neighbor has a peony they pollinate each others and my next new born peony could be a combination of light and dark pink stripes.
Happy nature day !

Tell me your name

"Every blade of grass has its angel that bends over it and whispers, Grow, grow"- quote from the artist way workshop.
My daily exercise during the last couple of month/years actually was to awaken my spiritual creative dormant soul. Each morning was a groundhog day for me, turning in circles trying to figure out what went wrong, when did I sleep, when did I get hit by the light, when did I let go... when did it happen... the only answer I was getting every day, the only constant that was making my mornings an awakened ones was BELIEF and FAITH.
Carry it in your heart, on your neck, in your pocket, it does not matter where as long as you never loose sight of it.
My daily prayer became to myself and my sister the Creator of those amazing pendants: I can grow happy actually happier every day. Thank you LIFE for the possibilities you have given me. Thank you for helping me choose what is right for me in the now, for helping me preserve the LIFE and the LIGHT you have given me to be able to share it and move on, today and everyday. Amen

The pendants where designed as a first communion gift tailor made to the buyer taste.

House of Stone - Anthony Shadid

In Arabic, the word “bayt” translates literally as house, but its connotations resonate beyond rooms and walls, summoning longings gathered about family and home. In the Middle East, bayt is sacred. Empires fall. Nations topple. Borders may shift. Old loyalties may dissolve or, without warning, be altered. Home, whether it be structure or familiar ground, is finally the identity that does not fade.
