Better Than I Could Have Ever Imagined!

The jewelry party went better than I could have ever imagined.  I was just praying that the jewelry would be well received.  There were around 25 ladies mingling about - and lots of questions to be answered.  Most bought off the table - but I did get some orders.  Its amazing what people are drawn to.  I like'd watching the emotions on their faces as they mulled over their choices.  I have to say that some final choices were surprising!  God truly blessed on my first show! 

Make it ... or break it!

Tonight is my first jewelry party.  Got some loose ends to tie up  - but overall I'm feeling good about things.  I have a diverse line of things to offer - but have stayed true to myself.  Hopefully it will be received well.  Kinda hard to put yourself out for others to see ... but I guess that's what its all about.  Will blog later to let you know how it goes. 

Gotta go ... gotta make things happen!  Wish me luck!  :D

Preparing For My First Ever Jewelry Party

I spent most of this evening getting my blog set-up again.  It's been soo long since I accessed it that I had to totally revamp it.  Its up and running now and I have no excuses NOT to use it.  lol

I have a jewelry party coming Dec 9th.  And, thankfully today I got some things done in preparation for it.  I ordered some organza bags from e-bay.  I ordered 2 sizes - 3x4 moss green and and 4x6 Burgundy bags.  I'm really excited about them.  I like the color combination of the two and think I will make them my signature colors. 

I also ordered some business cards today.  I created a business card online and had it shipped.  It was one of those offers for 250 cards for $1.99, but the shipping was lots more.  Especially since I need it for the party - and its a week from Thursday.  Before I hit the final paypal button to confirm the payment ... I called around locally to see what they would charge for business cards.  Calls to the tune of $65 were the answer that I got.  And it was $15 more if they set it up ... but I could create it.  So, I paid the extra $18 shipping to get the other cards here in 7 days time.  Quality probably won't be as good ... but hey ... $65!!!  Nonetheless I've had a very eventful day and got lots accomplished.  It was a good day.  Thank you Lord!  :o)

Please be with my friends Sophia and Nolan.  Heal them Father.  I know you can! 

Unexpected News

I have a couple friends who are sick.  We got news last week that Sophia, 30 years old and mother of Bethany, 6,  has a cancerous brain tumor.  She's at Shands - they did one surgery - but must do another to insert a permanent drain stent because of fluid.  Today we got news that our friend Nolan - in his mid 60's, has lung cancer and has 15+ months to live according to the way the cancer spreads. 

Lord, I don't understand these things.  I trust you to work these things out ... and no matter what ... I TRUST YOU!
