Hand carved soap
|
 |
I thought these would make beautiful Valentine gifts. And I love buying from artists, making and selling there wares. I bought these in Chiang Mai. Amazingly delicate and beautiful (there are red roses too) ... I watched while they were carved, though missed the painting part. They come in a sweet wooden carved box as well... and I'm selling at the wholesale price of $14.

Silver from Laos
|
 |
|
I loved Luang Prabang in Laos. I bought some beautiful hand loomed silk which you can see a bit of under the hair sticks and some beautiful silver bracelets, necklaces, rings, earrings and these cool hair sticks.... the work well for wrapping up hair into a twist or sticking into a bun or head wrap.

Greetings LoveTribe ...
Back from Asia ... back to my favorite "channel" ... the Bay Area. Yeah! I love the air here ... the beauty of the Bay ... Everytime I return it is a yesssss......
I had closing Outback "penciled in" for this last weekend ... but
not yet the time ... got some clear messages and my next unfolding still
forming.
I did connect with some wonderful elements and visions in
Asia. The influence of the Hmong Tribes art and color (like the dolls above) ... some magical wood
pieces ... I'm seeing Avatar meets Alice in Wonderland in the Temple of Venus for our next community event space and uplifting design elements for the design studio/remakers workshop with design and business classes.
In the meantime ... some interesting signs to stay a bit longer here unfolded along with some beautiful pieces of clothing. Some I've been requested not to "advertise" in this newsletter. And others ... Like, great comfy knits from Sylvie and Mado and as long as we were still
going to be open I'm getting in some more cashmere blend and merino
wool socks as many of you requested ($5-$8 instead of $18-28) plus all
other socks are now $2, tights and stockings $5.

The French Trench Coat

Pile Ou Face ... cool new coats (at half, or more, off)
Most of these stylin', statement making yet comfy and practical French coats are $140 (reg. $280) although there are a few different styles, like the one to the left that are under $100.
And along with this great code pink, Pile ou Face coat, Amira is wearing a purple shawl from the $11 scarf rack and holding one of the Hmong embroidered bags I brought back. And look at the cool irredescent blue coat in the back ... and the burgandy one, also gray, brown and black in fun styles.

My musings ...
Over the years, it seems what works best (for me), is to "pencil in" or
aim for something and then just stay with the unfolding ... moving as
it becomes clear to move.
And when unexpected things happen ... like my internet
and phone line being down for the first week I was back, Instead of
being upset by that ... I was at first curious ... Hmmm, that's
interesting ... I thought I needed to get an email out letting you all
know it was the last weekend and catch up on so many things from being
away. Then it became clear it was the perfect thing, to give me an
easy, slower entry back. Not pushing to get an email out and push a closing I wasn't feeling, and really didn't work yet ... even if penciled in. And an opportunity to give myself a more peaceful place to respond to
my many emails and phone calls from, by allowing time ... knowing there is enough time.
I come from the view of my cohort, Rob Brezny, which he calls Pronoia
... the feeling the universe is conspiring to shower me with blessings
... I assumed it happened to support me.
It was, as Sylvia Boorstein said
yesterday, responding with buoyancy. When you respond with buoyancy ...
the path becomes buoyant ... joyfull ... cultivating boyance is
cultivating joy. And that's what I'm cultivating this year ...
among other crops ... creativity, inspiration and always love
ComePassion xoxo Devi
