Standing tall under the sun.
Seeking out the light.
Singing to those last strains of sunset as they fall
over the edge of the West Bench.
Looking to the hills (where does my help come from).
Knowing I will be sustained.
Knowing I am not meant to carry more than I can bear.
Finding gladness in the cascade of beauty around me.
I will not be moved.
One of a kind.
Hollow formed sterling & citrine.
Made for a woman who needs to feel bound in peace.
Maybe, made for a woman like me…
Thursday comes in with a steady blue sky here.
The sun rolls away all the clouds.
I’m barefoot in the grass with the tulips resting their nodding heads against my knees.
Have a beautiful Thursday, my friends.
May there be peace in your hearts.
Love,
Quilianna
…OH how you bend & sway to the light of day…
& dang that's a gorgeous haircut…XOXO
mmmm. your poetically inspirational words are very filling. like raising one's head and looking toward the heavenlies to find the meaning of life and all surrounding beauty. your blog feeds me and i am full.
lovely vacation to you. see you upon your return.
what marnin' light!
lovely as always, plume.
Jillian,
So lovely and delightfully bright. You continue to amaze me.
Much love,
Cathy
no, you will not be moved. you stand upon a rock. THE rock. and thanks be to him for these hardships and the blessings that rise like lavender smoke from the trembling ground. we are enveloped in grace.
Absolutely beauteous Jillian! 🙂
Loving, yearning over your movement into this piece. What a perfect, evolving reflection on your alleluia necklaces.
jilllllsss,
fucking fantastic.
wish i could be there today.
i don't care what you say, i'd pour one and we'd find a way to laugh so the tears come without judgement or fear that they may never stop.
You know. I stopped drinking that stuff, but I might partake today, if I had the perfect company…..
THanks to you all for being with me in this sunny old storm!
With all my heart,
J
Here comes the sun…do da do dah…here comes the sun, and I say…it's alright. It's alright. It's wow!
Wowzers 🙂
And the hair looks fab too 🙂
LOVE! WANT! but i've been banned from etsy (by the bf) till i can get my cc paid. :'(
Oh my!!! That sunflower makes my heart yearn for it to be crowned by those soft petals. I love that so much!!!

Dearest Plume,
My breath is taken away by the sheer beauty of this newest work of art.
Last night i was going back to your very first pieces you sold on Etsy, back when i first found you and was so very stupid and didnt snatch up every bit i could. And i just wanted to say i fell in love at first with your work, but i am amazed at how you have grown in your abilities, so smooth and detailed. Your work is one of a kind. I
found other people selling their jewelry on etsy simular to yours, i had the fleeting thought i should buy a couple pieces, but felt like i was cheating on my first love. No matter how long i must wait, i will wait for You. For that perfect ring or necklace that i am meant to own and pass down the generations.
So the short of it, miss Plume, i love you, your work, your writing. You have inspired me in more than one area in my life. you rock my socks!
I also have a very funny story to share with you. The other morning i was in my bathroom readying myself for church and my 7 year old daughter is in there, and she picks up my ring (my plume ring) and starts to caress it up close to her face, very smeagelish like and whispers, 'when my mom is dead and in heaven YOU will be ALL MINE'!!!!
this cracked me up. now you know even the children love your work. and cant wait till i die. hehe
Quiliana…this is awesome! xx
so loverly, as are you. and i be missin you back. hope your day is bright and sunny in nature and in spirit
xoxo
Beautiful Necklace!
Health and happiness,
Angela
Oh my Jillian, this is beautiful…just beautiful!
I. Love. This.
I. Need. This.
It's going in the shop?? When!
I think marie (above) best described my feelings about this blog post when she said, "your poetically inspirational words are very filling." You feed my soul, Ms. Plume. I hope your soul is being fed. Much love to you!
xo
ABSOLUTELY DIVINE! (The necklace and it's creater)
Beautifous!!!
WOW WOW WOW…….I think that this one is my all time favourite "Plume" creation……I want this one!!!! 🙂

Wow! Pop!
Quilianna – I love this name!!! I LOVE this necklace!!! I must agree with Jaccalyn's every word – I also go back to your first creations periodically and smile with great glee when I witness your magnanamous leaps of creativity and wonderous works of recent beauty-each week brings more eye candy and I just continue to oooh and ahhh at each and every piece….Have a wonderful vacation and may peace and love fill your soul. XXOO Sal
Oh pretty lady, sounds like you had a gorgeous, (though maybe heart-wrenching) Thursday. You are brilliant and bright, hey 🙂
Your work continues to amaze me – you have a very special talent!
Ooooh and I am back in Tuscany…
Thank you so much, each one of you, for these really lovely comments!
And Missus Jaccalyn, I smiled so hard while reading your comment that I thought my face might fracture!
🙂
Thank you.
Everyone.
Thank you.
If I should decide to sell this piece, it will enter the Etsy shop when I am through with my holiday. Thank you SO much for your interest!!!
