Well… I finally got around to downloading the pictures from our Puerto Rican vacation.  It’s kind of nice when you wait a few days because it gives you some time to reminisce on the great time you had and the fabulous sites you saw.  In this case, I was reminded of all of the beautiful and vibrant colors that infuse the city of Old San Juan… and today, I’m sharing those with you! Enjoy!

Happy Earth Day everyone!

On this earthy day, I’m inspired by the natural beauty of agate stone.  The array of colors and intricate patterns make this stone nothing short of stunning.

Here are 6 ways to add some earthy agate style to your life.
