This
weekend I escaped. I threw a few lightweight dresses and cut off jeans
into a bag and ran away to what is undeniably one of my favorite
islands in The Bahamas, actually perhaps on this planet? - Eleuthera.?

With
two Eleuthera experts as my unofficial guides, one of the first stops
was Island Made - a tiny souvenir shop off of Queen's Highway in
Gregory Town. Dried coconuts brightly painted to depict smiling faces,
reams of Androsia, and homemade preserves are just a few of the
Bahamian made goodies to be discovered in this little gem of a store.?

I
browsed the house wares and homemade gourmet delights but like a true
fashion junkie, what really caught my eye was the jewelry...
