I have been a busy bee, booking jewelry trunk shows at area workplaces, as well as several home parties. I love to do shows because it gives me a chance to showcase my work and meet all sorts of people. Come by and see me when I’m at your work, or book a home party and get free host credit!

It’s All Happening So Fast! October 19, 2007

When I started preparing back in August for the Rome Art & Community Center’s annual Holiday House, I thought, “I have plenty of time! I have three months till November to get jewelry ready, create a whole new tagging system, and come up with an innovative display strategy!” RIGHT! Now with a week and two days left before we leave for Italy, I am on full panic mode. Never fear, though- it all will get done. And with the help of my good friend Michele from My Pet Sitter (mypetsitter@hotmail.com !!), the show will be set up on my behalf while I’m gone. I admit, I’m a little OCD and it will be different to have someone else setting up my jewelry, but we’re going to have a dry run next week and I’m sure she’ll do great!On another note, the plans for my Holiday Artisan Showcase at the Stanley Theater are going very well! I am finalizing the menu with my Gourmet Food Tasting vendor, planning ads and marketing, and receiving vendor applications every day! Very exciting. I have gotten such a positive response on my event; it’s as if people were just waiting for it to be invented. Yay!So have a great weekend, and remember, I’ll be on vacation from October 29th-November 7th, so if I don’t respond to your emails, I’m not ignoring you! I’m just ignoring work for a little while.
