PRETTY AS A PEACOCK

On a recent visit to the Bronx Zoo, I became mesmerized by a flock of peacocks strutting in a nearby field.  Fanning their gorgeous plumes for visitors, the peacocks were a sea of deep blues and greens;  delicate eye candy. This fall the peacock's jeweled blues and greens are inspiration for a host of vibrant fashion and home accessories, fabrics and paints-pick up something peacock and strut your stuff!

    I did a whole post on peacocks and was inspired by my trip to the Bronx Zoo, as well. Aren't they just the loveliest creatures to look at...so gorgeous!

    It seems like peacock blue and peacock feathers are making a comeback - such pretty inspiration on a gray day!

    I am in love with your peacock photo. Any chance you have a larger file of it that you would be willing to send me?

    My lovely wife has been looking for the Kate Spade teal peacock brooch. I want to surprise her on her B-day (2/27). I have called all U.S. Kate Spade and online stores. None carry it any longer. Anybody know where I can still find it? Or anybody willing to sell it? Please post a website I can refer to. :)
