Little Pearls for Little Girls




Little Pearls
for Little Girls


Last year my little girl, at age two, and I had several lovely adventures photographing for and creating a story for the lovely Little Pearls. Their child-sized pearl necklaces and bracelets are so divine, and the smaller sizes for littlest girls are so sweet!
Amélie adores her own Little Pearls fine jewellery, and we had a lovely time together, including previously documented adventures in the rose gardens.

Here are some more images from our time creating for Little Pearls.

We had a great time,
thoroughly enjoyed working for Little Pearls,
and Amélie was very pleased with it all, as you can see here,
on her first day wearing a Little Pearls necklace and bracelet set. :)




Thank you so much, Antonia!

Classic childhood toys I ~ bubbles

and simple, timeless fun :)


My little girl has been so helpful featuring in children's product projects these past few months, so in appreciation I bought her some classic childhood things to play with... a fabulous bubble maker, bubble mix, and lots of sidewalk chalk!


FUN!!

And she also chose for herself little toy cars (a favourite toy of late), and luxury chocolates from our favourite chocolate shop. :)

Classic Childhood toys II ~ chalk!

More fun with the art and play supplies my little girl earnt being my photography model recently.

Late Autumn Walk

It's nearly Spring and here I am posting some images from a late Autumn walk in the rose gardens with an adventurous two year old, in vintage thrifted coat, stripey tights and favourite red shoes, first baby plaits, and exquisite pearl jewellery from Little Pearls, all on a gorgeous (though cold) late afternoon. xo


You can't see a lot of the little pearls here but Little Pearls was also the inspiration and reason for our beautiful little garden walk/adventure that late May day. :)

This gazebo in the rose gardens was soon called the 'little house'. Fun to run back and forth to, after rose and garden explorations...


Nearly Winter and there were still many roses in bloom.

And then the little one slowed down, at last, to explore walking big brother's scooter here there and everywhere.

This is what I wrote then: Her brother's scooter. She adores it, walks it everywhere and wishes she could balance it properly and ride it without needing someone to help her balance. I'm sure she will some day...


... and now of course she is a pro!
