Greetings from Florida
Happy November

I hope everyone is enjoying a colorful autumn season wherever you may live. We are enjoying the South Florida weather & time by the sea. The ocean is so inspirational to me & fuels my creativity all year long.  I recently have expanded my art endeavors to include photography & currently have a collection of Scenic Photo Greeting Cards & more available through an etsy shop which I will share with you in this post.  You may also find some photo items available on my jewelry website and on FineArtAmerica.com.

I will be adding new scenic photo collage cards from other locations in the next month so stay tuned for images of your favorite travel destinations... or ones on your wish list.


I truly appreciate your support throughout the last few years at Nancy Yuskaitis Jewelry and now I'd like to invite you to also join me on a new journey where you will find Paradise inspired Travel Photography, Beach Scenes, Coastal Towns, Mountain Villages, Botanical Beauty & Cottage Style Design.

I will also share the view from my cottage studio in the mountains & the ocean and from travels in our camper van. You will find colorful images of beach walks & beach getaways, urban bungalows & adobe casitas, mountain cottages & powder days.  My love of the ocean, sea treasures, bluebird skies, wildflowers & travel is a way of life & a journey that I would love to share with you.

My lifestyle approach is:
Island - Bohemian - Coastal - Cottage - Beachy - Bungalow
Rustic - Modern - Vintage - Contemporary
Tropical - Mountain - Colorful.

I believe that life is meant to be lived with Passion, Vision & a Generous Happy Spirit.

Wishing you a happy & colorful life,

Springtime in the Islands

Spring...the transition between Winter and Summer in the Florida Keys is a vibrant beautiful time of year.  The temperature is warm in the high 80's with very little rain and moderate humidity. The ocean is warm yet refreshing for an afternoon swim in the backyard or beach or with a short boat ride to a nearby coral reef you can immerse yourself with a variety of colorful tropical fish.  The waters are mostly calm and there is a light breeze swaying the palm trees just a bit. Flowering bushes and trees pop with gorgeous shades of pink, purple and orange contrasted with white picket fences in beautiful small front yards.  What a joy and pleasure it is to be living on an island in the Florida Keys in the Springtime!
Wishing you new beginnings and the promise of beautiful things to come!
Live a colorful life,
~Nancy

Down where the palm trees grow

Hello and Welcome!

It's the start of another great day in the Florida Keys. The first cold front of the season that brought strong winds, rough seas and cool temps is winding up and today we are enjoying clear skies, with a beautiful sea breeze and temps in the high 70's. There is still a light chop on the ocean with occasional white caps breaking through the light green sea.

Yesterday morning there was a knock at the door and a young man asked if he could have the coconuts perched high in the palm trees in our front yard.  He wanted to fill his van with free coconuts to take to Miami to sell and so we agreed to share them with him for a little trimming of the large palm fronds that were draping over our mailbox making it difficult for the mailman to drop off our mail in the strong wind we had for the last 5 days.

The day before we did some trimming on a beautiful coconut palm in our back yard that was looking wild and wooly from the summer's growth, it now looks stately as it guards our home with it's large fronds stretched outwards to the left and right protecting us from the strong sea breezes.

Life has been busy since our return to Florida, catching up with friends and family, opening up the house, organizing and settling back in the Keys. My studio is set up for glass cutting and I'll be ready to fire up some new work this week, update my website and offer a special promotion for facebook fans on Nancy Yuskaitis Jewelry. 

Season is just beginning as part-time seasonal visitors have returned and it's always an exciting time to re-stock my displays in my retail venues and seek out new ones.  Even with the economy the way it is, people seem more hopeful this time of year.

The SoDu Gallery on South Duval in Key West has new Island Style necklaces and earrings for sale, if you are in Key West please stop in the gallery.  Little Palm Island Resort on Little Torch Key has my Island Style Palm Tree Necklaces available in their gift shop. You can take the ferry boat to the private island for a beautiful seaside lunch and stop in the gift store for unique tropical items.

Wishing you a delightful day!
