First Day of Spring Blue Topaz & Peridot Pin

There is the official first day of spring — the one printed on the calendar. And then, there’s the real first day of spring, the one you’ve been waiting for all winter.
It surprises you. You step outside, and the air feels different. Not just warmer, it feels lighter. The sun touches your face, and you don’t hurry back inside.

Somewhere, something is budding.
Somewhere, something is thawing.
And suddenly, so are you.

It’s the day you roll down the car windows.
The day you hear birds sing again.
The day you feel energy rush back into your bones.

Every cell in your body feels awake. Alive. Ready.
Blue skies.
New green.
Gold light catches everywhere.

This pin holds that moment, that first real day when the world opens up again, and you open with it.

Why We Love This Piece

Spring arrives later in Maine. While our southern neighbors begin to see signs, we wait for ours to arrive. For us, those first signs of spring become even more momentous because we have waited just a little bit longer for them to arrive. This pin is a bright remembrance of what spring will bring.
