    Emsdoll softie series

    Made another doll;and this one is the first in the series that I am calling Emsdoll Softie. Took me around 4 hours to make one. It was not easy as everything was handmade except for the fabric. I used calico fabric and fabric marker to make the clothing, face and headgear. I did not make tiny clothing from other fabric because it will take me more time to complete. Work smart. Hehe.

    Do you like it? Her name is Emma.

    A Tree, I would be

    tree

    If I have to be a tree,
    to be the vital part of your earth,
    I would.

    * Changed ‘life’ to ‘earth’. Relevant that way.

    I love Trees poem by Joyce Kilmer. Hear this:

    Trees
    Joyce Kilmer. 1886–1918

    I THINK that I shall never see
    A poem lovely as a tree.

    A tree whose hungry mouth is prest
    Against the sweet earth’s flowing breast;
    A tree that looks at God all day,
    And lifts her leafy arms to pray;
    A tree that may in summer wear
    A nest of robins in her hair;
    Upon whose bosom snow has lain;
    Who intimately lives with rain. 

    Poems are made by fools like me,
    But only God can make a tree.

    Jord – Telling more than time

    I am not much of a materialistic kind of person but getting a Jord wood watch is too good to not brag about.

    jordforblogEly Maple from Jord Wood Watches. (Note:That’s my cat, Mok a.k.a.Handsome, in the photo).

    A wood watch? Nice concept, right? Simply means earth, soil, land (Swedish), Jord is made up of watches that are created from a variety of sustainably sourced wood from across the globe. Some of their current series of watches feature bamboo, maple, sandalwood, blackwood, cherry, zebrawood, and koa. Some series may contain one or multiple types of wood in line with the design and function of each watch.

    Wood is not just a component of Jord watches, it is the main feature; guided by a deep appreciation for natural elements and modern design.

    If you have Timex watches, they are stylish and, more importantly, durable. However, this Timex watches repair center here can take preemptive measures to keep your watch running for a long time!

    Personally, I like this watch because of what it is made of; sustainable wood, and the fact that it communicates well with my emotion. Say, if you are seated beside me on a cafe and you noticed a wood watch on my wrist, what would you say about me? Can you tell the basics about me from my accessories? It will be interesting to know. Do let me know your thoughts in the comment box.

    jordwatchesEach JORD watch is designed to be splash proof but is not intended for complete submergence in water. Normal wear and use can include kitchen activities, a day on the beach, the gym, etc.

It is time to make an extraordinary statement with accessories as well as give your loved ones a real watch that tells more than time.  Connect with Jord Wood Watches to see beautiful pieces yourself: Website | Facebook | Twitter | Google+ | Instagram
