New Beginnings...

Welcome to my very first blog post! I have been dying to start sharing with everyone about my inspiration.  'Trifles' are so important to me in my life-they are the very things that inspire me and feed my soul. I need to be surrounded by them... Stay with me and I will share many examples of Trifles in my future posts!
  I've decided to start with some romantic images from a recent part of my life that was spent in Italy. I had a wonderful little shop in the Mugello area of Tuscany called 'Cera Una Volta' meaning, 'There Was A Time'. There I sold variuous wonderful products mostly from France and Italy that smelled and looked amazing! Sometimes if I just close my eyes I can remember through all of my senses what a great feeling I had there! It is very nostalgic for me. Now that I am back in America I take that inspiration for all of my creativity! One day I would like to recreate that little shop right here........I hope these images give you the same feeling that I had at 'Cera Una Volta'...........<3
