CHTHONIC: Dark, unknown and mysterious;relating to the underworld.

Needing a change of everything I find myself wanting the woods again and again and again....what is this constant calling?







One of my favorite publications....FLOWER CHILDREN






My latest floral art and a best friends wedding...

Fossette; A dimple in the cheek.

This makes me smile and imagine what my store will be like when that day comes...


It all started by this truck I found...I want to have this truck to deliver my flowers in! How cute would that be?!




My horoscope said that if I was thinking of a career change now is the time to take a step in that direction. It's not that I'm quitting making jewelry...I've just always wanted my own shop and the nature girl in me has always wanted to do floral arranging, have a greenhouse, and get dirty! My original name since High School for this shop was DIRT...Diana DeRosa and I had this whole idea of what it would be like and that "idea" has never left me. I went from DIRT to DUST because years ago some show came out called DIRT and ruined it for me.

I got asked to do my first wedding this September for one of my best friends so I'm getting very inspired lately! Very much looking forward to it.

Desiderium; An ardent longing, as for something lost.

I discovered this amazing book by an incredible french interior designer who brings old Gyspy caravans back to life with her husband ("Rêve de roulottes"
Jeanne Bayol - Jean Marie Marechal). They are so magical and dreamy!LOVE LOVE LOVE

"Neither house nor hut, gypsy caravans are untiring travellers. Proof that true liberty indeed exists, they travel towards the unknown, forever imbuing us with their sovereign supreme audacity."

I will have one of these in my backyard someday in the near future...



with a room like this...


and where it all started...

Fribble; To act in a giddy way or frivolous manner.


I had the honor of meeting Sarah Sophie Flicker today and I have to say she is adorable! So lovely and kind. I had to share with her that I am obsessed with The Citizen Band and her side projects...she was thankful I even new who she was! For those of you that haven't a clue who she is....




Add these two to the mix and woweeee!

And Sophie loved these...



And this is just amazing...

I had this post unpublished for months and just realized it!!

One of many obsessions...started many, many moons ago! What I wouldn't do to have my lover pick me up on a motorcycle...and not just any motorcycle...I only ride on Harley Davidsons and Triumphs. Wind blowing it all away, holding my lover, ocean to the left...freedom.love.trust. My time is coming...

So long since a post...so much happening I don't even know where to begin.

It all started with the new year...the universe testing me over and over again. First, one of my best friend, mentor, sister whom was diagnosed with cancer. Then my real sisters illness. Then the car. Then my own illness...walking pneumonia twice! And now more recently, my purse stolen. With all this, I try to remain positive and feel deep in my heart that it is all going to be ok! I was told today that I have such resilience considering what has been happening in my life...that's a first! Perhaps I'm growing up.

I had a reading about a month ago with an amazing person and spirit, Percy Ryder......get "your future told about to unfold." It has been quite amazing to see this future unfold after my reading...it's all happening. Then I went to a new moon intentions and release witch circle which also was such a healthy, positive, and healing experience. We all pulled our animal cards and I got the bat...talk about on the money!

Just finished up my latest collection coming out in April...check out my website for more pics.



I have been searching for a new studio work space, preferably a treehouse or something that resembles a treehouse! Fingers crossed.
And as always, on the search for new inspiration..
