Our year goes through natural seasonal cycles, changing things up and keeping things interesting. This impacts everything from food and fashion to travel and temperature. Certain times of the year cause us to shift into certain patterns and, for this reason, you likely have your own favorite season whose recurrent features match your personality. We invite you to view our collection of Summer Limoges boxes at LimogesCollector.com as we celebrate the uniqueness of this season and all of the characteristics that make it such a bright, spritely time of year.
Dress Code: Casual
Every season has a distinguishing effect on our wardrobes. If you are lucky enough to live in a region that experiences four distinct seasons, you know what it is like to revamp your closet every 3 months. Summer traditionally is time for those lightweight, breathable fabrics, “sunny” colors, and a less-is-more clothes to skin ratio. Out with the boots and in with the flip flops. Spending more time moving about outside in the sun means that your clothes should be both comfortable and practical. So, slip on the sunglasses, bust out the bucket hats, shimmy into shorts, and go get yourself some Vitamin D! Our “Hawaii Suitcase with Bikini and Hawaiian Shirt Limoges'' showcases traditional and quintessential summer garb. Cool, colorful, and classic, this summery trinket-within-a-trinket will make you feel the solar vibes all year long.
V for Vacation
Some people wait all year long for summer to come so they can make time to step away from the day-to-day rituals in favor of enjoying some much needed restorative escapades. Trains, planes, cars, or boats can take you from stuck-in-a-rut to beachside-in-a-hut in no time. It is undeniably healthy to take a break and get away from it all sometimes, and Limoges boxes like our “International Shopping Bag” can transport you immediately to times of sweet escape and carefree adventure that does us all a world of good. One very popular travel choice this time of year is a cruise ship voyage. With so many destinations to choose from, these pleasure voyages allow you to essentially go on vacation on your way to your vacation!
With personalized pamperings, lively entertainment, gorgeous views, and scrumptious meals, this is an economical and family friendly way to spend this season in style. Debark and experience a little piece of a new place, grab a bite to eat and do a little shopping. This mix of land and sea allows for a wonderful blend of sights and experiences from port to port without the stress of coordinating the travel logistics yourself. Our “Luxury Ocean Liner Cruise Ship Limoges Box” and “Luxury Cruise Ship at Tropical Port Limoges Box” are beautiful keepsakes that marvelously capture the allure of an ocean getaway. These collectibles also include little novelty postcards inside, capturing that essential travel tradition -- letting your friends and family back home know what a fabulous time you are having!
Pack Your Gear, Summer’s Here!
Vacations take some planning and preparation -- and we all know that we won’t get very far without ….luggage. Even an afternoon spent at the beach requires a sack filled with certain essentials like towels, pails, sunscreen, and a beach-read. LimogesCollector knows how happy a packed satchel makes a travel-ready soul. For someone who is ready to grab-and-go, these petite treasure trunks are symbolic of those weekend getaways or week-long country hops that summer lends itself to. Our “Designer Carry-On Suitcase with Hat Limoges Box” and “Luggage Round with World Map Limoges Box'' are perfect for those who know the joys of traveling light, ready for flight! And for those who may relate more with a “bring it all just in case” wayfaring mentality, the “Travel Trunk Suitcase with Drawers and 2 Dresses Limoges Box” may be more your speed.
Food for Thought
There are certain food items that we stock up on in the summertime that make this time of year …. well, delicious. Our grocers stock up on an appealing array of seasonal fruits and vegetables, and the meat markets are brimming with fare perfect for those of us itching to fire up the grill. Just picture this: Stacked hamburgers, golden corn-on-the-cob, sliced watermelon, and a glass of iced lemonade. Isn’t that just mouth-watering and unmistakably summer?!
From the spreads you anticipate at such events as your family picnic at the park, the BBQ block parties in your neighborhood, or trips to the county fair with friends, there are just some foods that are always expected and enjoyed in these summer months. You can create your own scrumptious summer-scape tabular tribute as an ode to this delicious season, with our summer fare collectible limoges boxes. The combination of Limoges pieces such as our “Double-Scoop Strawberry Vanilla Ice Cream Cone Limoges Box”, “Hot Dog with Mustard Limoges Box” “Barbecue Grill with Burgers Limoges Box” and “Fruity Tropical Drink Limoges Box” create a visual summer feast for the eyes.
The Birds, the Bees, … and the Entire Animal Kingdom!
We are not the only ones out there enjoying the outdoors, feeling rejuvenated and revitalized in the sunshine. During the summer months, many animals are at their busiest! Everywhere you go, you can catch a glimpse of your local wildlife living their best life. Beavers are out there building dams, snakes are slithering about, deer are raising their young, groundhogs are burrowing, and racoons are scavenging.
Nature walk, anyone?? Just open your door and listen to the crickets chirping, birds singing, and cicadas buzzing. Nature serenades you, offering timeless summer soundtracks that may leave you wanting to spend the entire day listening from your porch. Our “Colorful Songbirds on Heart with Greeting Card Limoges Box” depicts two such summer warblers hard at work putting on a lovely duet.
Activities Galore!
For those active, agile, and youthful souls, summer time might simply be defined as the sporty season. Weekends may be filled with such pastimes as baseball games, basketball scrimmages, hiking treks, and lengthy bike rides. Afternoons of heart-healthy movement and a little friendly competition under clear skies is a slice of heaven for many of you. There is actually SO much to do in this summer weather, I could just go on and on (*ahem* badminton, river-rafting, croquet, soccer, golf, ping pong, volleyball, kite-flying, rollerblading, ……). Our sports Limoges box collection seems to go on and on as well -- it will satisfy the sportiest of sportsmen. Whether you like to play in the grass, on the trails, or by the water, … we have Limoges boxes for it all. ...And for those jacks of all [sports] trades, the ”3-Hinged Multi-Sport Bear Limoges Box” is a special hybrid of high performance.
