It’s a New Year. January 1.
Here’s to it being a lucky one for you and yours.
My sister gave me these little fishies for a holiday gift this year. I just love them. They are kitsch. They are gaudy. They are flashy. They are perfect.
I believe these are said to be some sort of good luck talisman and are manufactured (or maybe they’re handmade?) in the China Towns of the world.
I made them into earrings and had Ruby model them. She thinks I should add some amethyst, lavender, midnight blue and crimson Swarovski crystals to them.
I like her style.
These sure would brighten any outfit.
I love the coloring. And the vibrancy of the gold.
Purple and gold are lovely colors.
In fact, I’ve been told those are my personal colors.
And so I plan to ride off into the sunrise of our brand new year with my lucky fish earrings dangling from my lobes, lookin’ fabulous.
Here’s to a new year together.
