Our newest addition...

Fridays around Geranium have a different feel then the other four workdays; not only is it hours away from the weekend, but we also get the chance to putt for a free lunch!  Yep, we set up a putting green at one end of the hallway and we are all given the chance to make a hole in one, and if we make it then the whole office gets to order lunch.  Eric, who is one of our graphic designers, happens to be our secret weapon and makes it most weeks for us.

Today though we not only had the excitement of free lunch and the weekend, but also of the new summer collection that we just launched recently!  Get these items while they are hot; there is only a limited amount!!!
OBN007
OBN005, PSN007, PUN002

Bean Town....

This past March, Jessica and I went up to Boston for the Boston Gift Show.  I am not sure if it's the old world feel or the fact that it sits on the bay, but Boston is by far one of my favorite cities to visit. 
We stayed in a little town just out side of Boston called Lexington and became quite the regulars in our short stay at their local Starbucks!  Here are some of our favorite photos from our adventures...

MARLEY!! The most shy dog I met when I was shopping.  His owner and I were feeding him treats trying to get him to stand still for this picture.
Amazing shot of the city I got while walking around the convention center; such a beautiful skyline.
A birds eye view of the show.
Our favorite word to try and say in a Boston accent! 'Waaaster', or 'Worchester', you be the judge! It made us laugh every time we passed this sign.
Deep in the city making our way to work,;I heart tall buildings!

You know you're near the ocean when one of these guys is hanging out in the parking lot at Starbucks.

Newbury Street, I wish I would have had an extra day to conquer this street but happy with the short time we did spend together!



Tell us your experience of the Boston Gift show, or just your favorite thing about this city!

Turkish Delights...


Recently,  I had the opportunity to travel to a new foreign land, Turkey.  I had an amazing time soaking up the culture, visiting ancient mosques, touring the sultan's palace grounds and eating new delicious foods! 

I'm a huge fan of Turkish jewelry so it's no surprise I came home with more jewelry than anything else.  The Grand Bazaar, one of the world's largest and oldest covered markets, boasts some of the most amazing jewelry pieces I've seen and where I did most of my jewelry shopping.

You can enjoy a little piece of Turkey too.  For the month of May, just mention this post and take 10% off our Turkish inspired pieces.  Limit one per customer.  Cannot be combined with any other offers.



Entrance to the Grand Bazaar – built during the Byzatine times


Look familiar?  BGR007 is in the mix.


Can't decide which pair to take home.


More jewelry to take home.


One of the most famous mosque – Hagia Sophia.  Completed in the 4th century.  The interior is gorgeous and very ornate!


Love these windows and decorative tiles.



Paris?  No, it’s Turkey! 


Underground cistern in Istanbul.  This is where they kept the city’s water supply back in 532 A.D.!


More shopping in an outdoor market.



I’m on the European side.  Across the water is Asia!


One of many ancient, ornate dome ceilings found in the Sultan’s palace grounds. 


Sadly, my husband and I couldn’t control ourselves and ate all the Turkish delights we planned on bringing home to share.
