I am trying to decide how to display my jewelry. This is a project all by itself! I was looking into some jewelry displays for examples and inspiration, and I found this great website: <a href="http://www.houzz.com/jewelry-display">http://www.houzz.com/jewelry-display</a> - It has a lot of different displays and even great ideas on how to display jewelry in your home! Here are a few displays I really liked (captions are clickable) -<br />

I needed some inspiration, some justification that I am not crazy, that design does matter, beauty and elegance is important in life, and that there is no design without intelligent thinking. So, in the midst of all the people who were surrounding me lately that have no understanding on what design is and why it is needed, I began to doubt myself on the subject and quickly needed an escape.</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was browsing the web and found a great website/graphic designer, who reminded me that great design and beauty does make me happy, and it is a wonderful escape from the mundane and boring which surrounds us sometimes. </div>

Here is a collection of quotes on design that gave me a little uplift today...</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">If you want me to give you a two-hour presentation, I am ready today. If you want only a five minute speech, it will take me two weeks to prepare.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
- Mark Twain</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">The sudden hunch, the creative leap of mind that "sees" in a flash how to solve a problem in a simple way, is something quite different from general intelligence.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
- Martin Gardner</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;"><br /></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">To create a memorable design you need to start with a thought that's worth remembering.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
- Thomas Manss</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;"> The best ideas come as jokes. Make your thinking as funny as possible.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
- David Ogilvy</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">There's a subtle reason that programmers always want to throw away the code and start over. The reason is that they think the old code is a mess. The reason that they think the old code is a mess is because of a cardinal, fundamental law of programming: It's harder to read code than to write it.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
- Joel Spolsky</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;"><br /></span></div>

- Warren Buffett</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">I met with a potential client today and part of their opening gambit was how they were looking for revolutionary work delivered within a tight timescale and if the work could be done at a reduced rate, then they'd be able to send a load more work our way. ..They were saying that they wanted work that was fast, good and cheap. And if the work was fast, good and cheap enough, the reward would be the offer of more work that is fast, good and cheap. ...Let me be clear about this, these people are evil, and their work is poison.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
- Hoss Gifford</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
- Oscar Wilde</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;"><br /></span></div>

Then, we would find pieces of broken glass bottles on the streets. We would dig a hole in the ground, place our findings there, underneath the glass piece, and cover it back up with dirt. Then, would clear away a little dirt on top, to find a small window into our own tiny treasure. These little secrets would always be just ours, our happiness at that moment, our creations.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">And so, now these little thoughts evolved here into this jewelry piece. From me to you, let them now be your very own happiness. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Quoting Ayn Rand: "Every form of happiness is private. Our greatest moments are personal, self- motivated, not to be touched."</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">They are our secrets :)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">These earrings hold a note with part of the above verse written on them, which is held into place with a selected bead. The note can be taken out and replaced with your own thought, your own little secret ;)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

One of the poems by Tagore, called "Stray Birds," is a combination of separate verses in one poem. Some of my favorite verses will each be a jewelry piece.<br />
<br />
