August 2014

I have been dusting off the tools and doing some jewelry making again.  I have really been enjoying working with leather.  Below are some pics of recent creations.

You had me at Wrestling.......

Sounds weird right.  I am a full on Football Mom.  I am talking bling wearing, pom pom bearing, football mom.  My oldest son however is a a wrestler.  He is passionate about the sport. I was searching for a gorgeous line of sports jewelry to offer our football Moms, and I stumbled across designer Rachel Miller, based in Westlake, CA. Not only did she have the most beautiful sports jewelry I have ever seen, no cheap bling here. This is all designed by her.  With triple layered metals (18K gold or rhodium) and all hand set sworovski crystals, it is gorgeous. When I saw her line in person I was floored, the pictures I had seen do not do it justice. But then.....she showed me the wrestling headgear she had designed.  There isn't much jewelry for the wrestling fan.  It is positively beautiful.  I was planning on buying a few pieces on spec, and offering them at our homecoming event.  I decided right then and there, that I wanted to rep this line.  She cares so much about the design and quality of each piece.  I pick them up at her home, and deliver them to my customers.  Small, I know, but I have no doubt this business will grow.  I will put a couple of pics here for you to get a taste, but I hope you will take a look at my new website to see the whole line.  http://www.shineonmamma.com












I have always enjoyed making jewelry. I get inspired by colors, patterns, and especially vintage brooches, chains, and medals. I am hoping to sell my designs at home shows and boutiques this year. Let me know what you think, your comments are welcomed!

I have designed not a single thing since I started consulting again. Inspiration tends to come in spurts for me, maybe in the summer time when work is slower. (I am praying that it won't be slow though! :)

Fourth of July weekend was a productive one for me..... take a look!











A few new pics!  I have been spending Mother's Day weekend designing, and having a ball!  I finished some gorgeous pieces.  These photo's are not the best, hopefully you will see enough to enjoy them.













This design would be custom made for you at approx $125-$165 depending on pendant.




A ring like this one would be $75-$120depending on stones chosen































$45

Networking can be expensive!

I went to a cool women's networking meeting the other night. It was with an organization called Heartlink . It was at some one's house. An awesome dinner was served. Tables set, lovely hospitality, and about 20 very interesting women were there. We each got 3 minutes to introduce ourselves and tell a bit about our business's. Most of the women knew each other already. Many of the women present had business's that sell through direct marketing. Most of the big ones were represented, and a few new ones I had never heard of but found interesting. There were also women with other business's like insurance, legal services, printing, etc... It is great to meet like minded people, and I can definitely see the benefits of attending regularly. The bad part however, is it leaves you wanting to go shopping! All of a sudden, I MUST have the new mango cutter from Pampered Chef, and I am yearning to freshen up my candles, and I NEED a hole new wardrobe from CABi . ...

The Sky is Blue

I want to thank all of you who lift my family up in prayer.  I thank all of you who give us encouragement.  I try really hard to see the cup 1/2 full, and most days I do.  I was feeling a little down last night, but today is a new day.  Blue skies remind me of how much I am loved.  Have an awesome day friends. And.....on a side note.... Go Viewpoint Patriots!!! We are in the playoffs! Wooo Hoooooo!

I believe

I believe....... That marriage is a lifetime gig That it is up to us to take care of those in need, through families, churches, relationships, etc... That family is serious business, parenthood is a gift, a treasure, something to take dead dog serious. That I have a right, and a responsibility to protect my family and those who can't protect themselves, from would be criminals, and anyone else who is attempting to infringe on our rights as stated in our constitution. I believe that without faith in God, and a conscious decision to submit to him, people are lost in a pool of ever changing self centered nonsense, and are subject to what ever the politically correct, hip, educated mantra of the year is. Stuff is awesome, shiny cars, flashy jewels, exotic vacations, are all delightful--- for a little while--then when the shiny wears off, and the financial impact starts hurting--- the result is damage to the most important thing--- family, and submission to God. I bel...
