The shop carries a wide range of unique items from handcrafted jewelry and vintage postcard art to handwoven bags, framed photographs and eclectic home décor. Many items are beach-themed and are big sellers with shoreline dwellers. A large selection of gift-ables for you and hostess gifts makes this shop a must-go-to when in need of that perfect gift. Lib and her friendly staff make shopping there a breeze and that small hometown feel is so welcomed.</div>

I remember clearly when I attended, in purple, of course, his Purple Rain concert. When learning today of his passing -- well let's just say me and millions of others are heart broken. Only 57 years young. Way too early, my friend. Here is the update on his passing....<br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #353e47; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #353e47; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5;">Prince made an appearance at Paisley Park last Saturday, just one day after he was hospitalized with flu symptoms. On April 15, TMZ broke the story that Prince was rushed to the hospital after his plane made an emergency landing in Atlanta. Carver County Chief Deputy Jason Kamerud confirmed a response to a medical call at Paisley Park at 9:43 a.m. Thursday.</span><br />

Born Prince Rogers Nelson on June 7, 1958, Prince was the creator of the pop-funk Minneapolis sound that permeated the 1980s music scene. At 5’2, his physical stature was small, but Prince was a titan of musical innovation and showmanship.</div>

Prince is best known for his hits Let's Go Crazy, Little Red Corvette, Purple Rain and When Doves Cry. In 2004, he was inducted into the Rock and Roll of Fame.</div>

<strong style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit;">Studs and earring jackets. </strong><span style="box-sizing: border-box;"><a href="http://www.jckonline.com/blogs/style-360/2015/06/12/mary-esses-new-earring-studs-and-jackets-join-una-collection-one-kinds" style="background: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; color: #c22514; line-height: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">These</a> have shaped up to be a consumer fave! Wearing studs solo offers some versatility, while the addition of jackets builds up another cool look. Easy to understand, studs and earring jackets are available across a wide range of price points.</span></div>

<strong style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit;">Chokers and other statement necklaces. </strong>These are a holdover from 2015, thanks to their appearance at the<a href="http://www.jckonline.com/2015/02/23/oscar-jewelry-delights-statement-necklaces-and-big-earrings" style="background: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; color: #c22514; line-height: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Oscars</a> last February and an abundance of spring 2016 styles—think knits to lingerie to lightweight denim—that demand a statement piece around the collar.</div>

<strong style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit;">Gold layering pieces. </strong>The price of gold is luring more artists away from silver and back to the warmer metal. There are some looks—delicate charm bracelets and dainty pendant necklaces—that just translate better in gold, and when prices are more reasonable, who wouldn’t prefer to make a layered statement in a richer metal?</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; direction: ltr; font-family: 'Playfair Display', Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 15.2px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 1.25em; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">

<strong style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit;">Asymmetry</strong>. From mismatched earrings to trails of tiny stones to modern <a href="http://www.jckonline.com/blogs/style-360/2015/10/27/jen%E2%80%99s-obsession-ayva-estenza%E2%80%99s-double-finger-ring-sapphires-amethysts-and" style="background: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; color: #c22514; line-height: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">cluster</a> styles, asymmetry is one of jewelry’s coolest trends. Asymmetrical looks appeal to youth through their message of individuality and reflect super-creative uses of minimalist materials.</div>

<strong style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit;">Fancy cuts.</strong> These are particularly evident in the modern cluster styles from designers such as <a href="http://www.jckonline.com/content/get-know-ilana-ariel-sarna-ilana-ariel-jewelry" style="background: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; color: #c22514; line-height: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Ilana Ariel</a> and<a href="http://www.jckonline.com/content/get-know-ruth-tomlinson-ruth-tomlinson-jewelry" style="background: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; color: #c22514; line-height: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Ruth Tomlinson</a> and are also making for chic entry-level engagement rings from <a href="http://www.jckonline.com/blogs/style-360/2015/10/06/get-know-jennie-kwon-jewelry" style="background: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; color: #c22514; line-height: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Jennie Kwon</a>, among other artists.</div>

<strong style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit;">Ethically sourced materials. </strong>Thanks to the patience of artists and individuals who care about everyone in the pipeline, ethically sourced looks will continue to become a priority. Stephen Webster and Chopard are <a href="http://www.jckonline.com/2014/04/28/fairtrade-fairmined-and-ethical-gold-rush" style="background: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; color: #c22514; line-height: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">pioneers</a>with their support of Fairmined gold as was Eric Braunwart in the <a href="http://www.jckonline.com/2015/05/29/source-code-movement-toward-ethically-sourced-gemstones" style="background: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; color: #c22514; line-height: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">gemstone</a> arena. More designers are getting involved through uses of recycled metals and ethically obtained stones, and jewelry stores can do the same. (For more information, read “<a href="http://www.jckonline.com/2014/04/28/fairtrade-fairmined-and-ethical-gold-rush" style="background: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; color: #c22514; line-height: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Fairmined, Fairtrade, and the Ethical Gold Rush</a>.”)</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; direction: ltr; font-family: 'Playfair Display', Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 15.2px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 1.25em; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit;">Stacking rings.</strong> These are an easy and cost-effective gift, especially considering the range of cute styles available from design houses such as <a href="http://www.jckonline.com/blogs/style-360/2015/12/22/get-know-wing-yau-wwake-jewelry" style="background: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; color: #c22514; line-height: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Wwake</a>, among others. Plus, they are fun to stack and build up bigger statements when couture features cutouts and casual options.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; direction: ltr; font-family: 'Playfair Display', Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 15.2px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 1.25em; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit;">The color</strong> <strong style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit;">gray. </strong>Why gray when Pantone’s colors of the <a href="http://www.jckonline.com/2015/12/03/pantone-debuts-rose-quartz-and-serenity-colors-2016" style="background: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; color: #c22514; line-height: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">year</a> are with pink and blue (aka Rose Quartz and Serenity)? Because the colors of the year indicate the hues that new clothes will be made in, so jewelers should offer complementary shades for consumers to color-block with their attire. Gray—by way of silver, platinum, white gold, and palladium—will easily coordinate as will gray diamonds and milky stones such as moonstone and labradorite, among others. But gray is just one option—there are lots of other fun colors to suggest.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; direction: ltr; font-family: 'Playfair Display', Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 15.2px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 1.25em; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit;">Feminine silhouettes and motifs. </strong><span style="box-sizing: border-box;">Many spring fashions speak to super-feminine looks such as ruffles and lingerie and motifs such as flowers, so accessories should be equally soft. Think cabochons, a continued use of fringe, deconstructed or blown-out forms (like the plaid <a href="http://www.elle.com/fashion/trend-reports/g26822/spring-2016-fashion-trends/?slide=16" style="background: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; color: #c22514; line-height: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">trend</a>), bows, tiny charms, and sweetly styled shapes such as half moons.</span></div>

Wedding hashtags have been trending and last few years and will only get more popular in 2016. Using a unique hashtag is a fun way to engage your wedding guests and carve out your own little space on the social web. Plus, informing your guests of your hashtag offers countless rustic-chic decor opportunities — think cute <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/whitetulipboutique/search?search_query=chalk&order=date_desc&view_type=list&ref=shop_search" target="_blank">chalkboard signs</a> or a special addition to your <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/232313782/mini-chalk-board-rustic-wedding-shabby?ref=shop_home_active_4&ga_search_query=chalk" target="_blank">escort card</a> display. If you’re considering using a wedding hashtag, allow us to share five reasons we think you should do it:<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 16.8px;">
<strong>1. It’s the simplest way to keep track of all the photos taken at your wedding.</strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 16.8px;">
Yes, the pictures your professional photographer takes will likely be the ones you frame and cherish forever. But there’s nothing quite like scrolling through Instagram with your new husband or wife the morning at your nuptials and reliving the wedding. Plus, there are plenty of moments your photographer won’t catch — your college roommate smooching your new brother-in-law, perhaps? — that your friends will capture and post online. A hashtag is a great way to ensure you see your wedding from every angle.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 16.8px;">
<strong>2. It’s a chance to use your new last name.</strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 16.8px;">
If you’re changing your name after marriage, using a wedding hashtag is a fun way to use your new last name for the first time. We promise you’ll get a kick out of seeing #mrandmrsgrant all over Instagram.<br />
<br /></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 16.8px;">
<strong>3. It’s an opportunity to show off your creative, silly side.</strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 16.8px;">
Yes, you could use a straightforward hashtag like #jamieandgenewedding, but why not get creative and try something like #newcloudsontheblock or #FaheyEverAfter? Have fun with it! It’s a hashtag, not your wedding vows, so you don’t have to take it too seriously.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 16.8px;">
<strong>4. Your hashtag can be used for a fun guest scavenger hunt.</strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 16.8px;">
Scratching your head over this one? Allow us to explain. Some creative couples have taken the wedding hashtag and turned it into an interactive photo-capturing scavenger hunt for guests. Here’s how it works: On each of your tables, or at each guest plate, place a list of photos your guests can “hunt” for at the reception. After capturing each image, they can post them to Instagram with your wedding hashtag. Your guests will have fun snapping photos at your reception, and you’ll have a great set of pictures from your friends’ perspectives.<br />

Continue my switch to healthier eating and beauty products. I am incorporating more natural alternatives into my daily regiment. Our skin is our largest organ, right? So, why would we want to gunk it up with a bunch of junk? I’ll admit my cabinets have been filled with Bath and Body Works lotion. Those wonderful smells hypnotize you. After I checked out the ingredient list (and realized I didn’t know what nearly anything was), I decided to end the love affair. Seriously, check this out label. With that being said, I am going to attempt to make organic, homemade lotion with only THREE ingredients. Stay tuned to my progress....</span></span></span><br />

It dissolves the sorrows, worries, fears and resentments suppressing the heart's ability to give and receive love, and replaces it with healing, comfort and inner nourishment. A deep sense of personal fulfillment and energy forms a new foundation where inner peace and contentment can become a personal reality. </span><span class="cite_text" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box;">[Raphaell, 82-83] You can read more here at CV<a href="http://www.crystalvaults.com/crystal-encyclopedia/rose-quartz" target="_blank"> Crystal Vaults</a> web site.

The quality, the look and the long-life it will give. Spend the extra money people. Gold plate is not worth it.<br /><br />{Details}:<br />♥ Genuine natural quartz saucers<br />♥ 14kt gold filled lever back ear wires, base bottom bead cap & wire wrapped<br />♥ Faceted Jade quartz in a deep hue<br />♥ Measures 24mm from lever ear wire base to end of the drop<br />♥ Measures 38mm total length overall<br /><br />Gold-filled is an economical alternative to solid gold. By law, it has 1/20th by weight layer of 14 karat gold permanently bonded over a core of base metal. It is tarnish-resistant, safe for sensitive skin and unlike gold plate, it will not wear off. It is a great way to enjoy affordable gold jewelry.<br /><br />Each item arrives in a lovely organza tassel drawstring bag for gift giving. <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/225226371/natural-quartz-and-jade-w-gold-fill-wire" target="_blank">See more images here</a>.<br />
