My necklace Ms. Laurie gave me( I will forever cherish)

I met Ms.Laurie from BittersweetDesigns a couple of years ago at the America’s Mart gift show here in Atlanta. When I saw her booth, I fell in love with it. It was a very dreamy space with whimsical items and I loved her things every since then. Laurie’s store is in Sante Fe,New Mexico and I want to visit her store one day soon
