{Golden Live Oak 'Quercus Virginiana Grand View Gold' in Sunshine at its BEST}

From the comments on my previous posting about our rare Golden Live Oak 'Quercus Virginiana Grand View Gold' I also did receive some questions about its golden color. Let me tell you that right now it probably will be at its BEST and in the Sunshine it looks spectacular. That true gold color will fade away partly during late summer. But no matter what season, we always enjoy this tree! Hope you also will enjoy these pictures that I share with you today. May your spring or autumn be equally rewarding; depending on which hemisphere you are living!

Picture is taken on Wednesday, May 8 in mid afternoon...

It is quite a show case!

{ LOOK - I won this IRIS GOLD Jewelry from Georgia in Greece}

On Monday the postman rang the doorbell with a small parcel I had to sign for. It came from Greece... all the way from the Old World. Greece was my favorite country in history classes and look now; I won this beautiful IRIS GOLD piece of jewelry from Georgia, from: Armoniaart.blogspot.com. This hyperlink shows you all three giveaway pieces of jewelry... Georgia lives in Xylokastro, in the Korinthia region of Greece. Now, I cannot wait to show you my winning piece...

How about this beautiful 925 silver pendant with Brown-Red Zirkon on a black silk necklace by IRIS GOLD for a Giveaway from Armoniaart.blogspot.com?

It even does have small Zirconia on the bale and around the Zirkon crystal! 

THANKS A MILLION dear Georgia!

Look at Georgia's beautiful handwriting...

Georgia can also be found on Bloglovin; just click the hyperlink.

Beautiful stamps from Hellas...

Georgia's handwriting in more detail...

She selected her three winners together with her daughter. Actually three pieces of incredible jewelry; one for every 100 readers she got for her blog. SO GENEROUS!

Inside the parcel was this map that was wrapped around the gift...

Map from Thassos; complimentary by IRIS GOLD - what a nice gesture!

If you can dream it, you can do it.

Great and very appropriate slogan...

This has been printed by Georgia for me; how beautifully done!

The map of Thassos shows more jewelry from IRIS Gold on one side...

And finally the little green box becomes visible!

All the way from Greece...

Bi-lingual card is used for this 925 silver pendant with brown-red Zirkon crystal.

For anyone that did fall in love with this very elegant piece, you can still order it on line.

{Blog Award from Serbia}

From dear Natasha (lawyer) from Serbia who writes the blog: SMILJE-art by heart, I did receive another Blog Award on April 15. How is that for two awards on one day? One from Canada and one from Serbia. Thanks Natasha for thinking of me. Again I want to thank every one of you; old and new readers; silent ones or those that added their name to the list. Thanks for all your comments over the years and for your input. I have leaned so much from each one of you. It is a constant blessing for visiting different blogs!

One can tell how fast the viral world goes as this is the very same award that came from Canada and again, it is in Spanish. 

Gracias por formar parte de mi mundo: link photo

'Thank you for being part of my world'

 Wishing all my readers, world wide a very happy week!

With appreciation,

Mariette
