Blizzard?

That's what the man said. I can't say I've ever been in anything even remotely called a "blizzard" before; but the man on the news did use that term tonight. "All of New York City will be under blizzard alert until 6am tomorrow morning." Really now? Granted, I haven't stepped outside today, but the view from my window hardly seems "blizzard" like. Yes, there's lots of snow, and yes, I don't think it's stopped since I woke up, but I don't think the accumulation in my backyard is even a foot deep. In my mind, blizzards are things you get lost in while running, yelling, looking for your runaway horse, Wildfire.

Onto the thematic etsy plugging. So, let's see what we find when we search "blizzard" on etsy, anyway.

I can't even say exactly what it is about this piece that made me stop. Simplicity, when done well, can be amazingly elegant. That would be my best guess. This piece is simple, but beautifully so, maybe like that sheet of white outside. This piece is by Faerie Glass, and is made of stained glass and lead-free silver solder.

She has a few other pendants in the exact same design but with different colored pieces of stained glass, as well as many other designs of stained glass jewelry. Very much worth the browse!
