E is for Elephants


Following on from the creature theme in D, E is for Elephants.

Elephants are linked for me not just in their representation in some of my jewellery; I have an elephant bead and an elephant lock, but in that a friend I have made because of my jewellery is elephant crazy (in a good way).  So E is also dedicated to my friend Alison!

My Elephant Bracelet

Alison can also spot elephants in places that I've frequented but hitherto have been blissfully unaware they existed...

I've also taken random pictures of elephant related things when I see them to show her...


It's a good job that I've got very understanding friends who don't mind me taking photos of their curtains to show another friend of mine they've never even met!

I shall be leaving the creatures theme today and returning to something more "traditional" for Monday... until then have a lovely weekend and see you next week!

    I love elephants! I had a beautiful elephant charm on a bead bracelet that I lost :( They are wonderful creatures.

      Oh no! Sorry you lost your jewellery :( I have done the ultimate jewellery losing; but luckily my husband didn't take it as a sign and we are still together ;)

      Elephants are great, I certainly see a lot more of them now because of my friend but that is cool. I also turned on my computer today and was about to tweet today's post... and the first tweet I saw in my timeline was a beautiful pic of Elephants from @EarthBeauties - very serendipitous!

      Thanks Victoria, I love all silver bracelets but it took me a while to discover how to do one that *I* liked but this was, who knew Elephants were the key! :D

    I am fond of both elephants and dragons. I also think beads are pretty sweet.

    Looking forward to what you toss our way on Monday.

      Oh how cool! That sounds brilliant :) A lovely reader on my Facebook page told me about this link...

      The Elephant Sanctuary

      I'd come across it before but lost the original link. Enjoy!

    We all have our totem animals. Elephants are most excellent, and you can revisit them on "H" day (for Heffalumps, of course.) thanks for visiting the pandas at http://yourbrainonpandas.com you da bear.
