  7. The beauty of these is that you have captured the true essence of a living leaf-- no perfect edges, a balance between newly unfolded and already fading and returning to the earth. I know that every edge is considered and thought about-- and it shows. A true tribute to our Mother.

  10. Oh, I can't tell you how excited I am to be able to touch more of your leaves and petals!
    My Maire Dodd Collection is kept on my nightstand, even if I can't wear jewelry that day, I get to see and feel your spirit daily.
