"Paper Planes" by Kevin Box

Wise Women
In ancient times, older women were the keepers of primal mysteries and were revered for their special wisdom. For this very unique book, Joyce Tenneson traveled throughout America to photograph and interview women ages 65 to l00. What she found was a revelation--women who were vital, energetic, and deeply beautiful, inside and out. The 80 portraits are of women from all walks of life from the famous, such as Sandra Day O'Connor, Julie Harris, and Angela Lansbury, to the ordinary, such as our mothers and grandmothers.

Peapod Necklace Peapod Necklace
Cute as a bunch of peas in a pod……literally. A fabulous conversation piece, each pea is represented by a seed pearl. Artist Michael Michaud achieves such astounding organic quality in his work because he starts with nature itself. Michael casts objects of beauty, and then sets the cast in bronze for a beautiful patina.

Ikebana Tray
Ikebana, the art of Japanese flower arranging, perfectly captures simplicity, gracefulness, and elegance. Tansu’s Ikebana Tray is beautiful enough by itself to require just one or two lovely blossoms to dress up any table or entryway. The prongs of the pin-frog pierce the flower stem, which keeps the blooms fresh for up to three weeks.
