A New Year and a 100th Post !!!

Wow... I just realized that I have my 100th post on New Years Eve !! SO I guess I can only celebrate new years by giving away a piece of my jewelry !!! I am not one to make New Years Resolutions ... but if I were to do ONE this year it would be to "DREAM BIG " - It's going to be my motto all year and I hope it will be yours too....
I have been taking it easy this past week and just enjoying some time off ...

but I have also been busy dreaming up new ideas too !!! Sometimes I fear the well is running low and the ideas don't come easy and sometimes in those empty hours you think you might never get back to where you were ... .. .in those times I usually do different things take a bath, read , look through my old sketches/journals ... and then somehow the ideas start popping again ... sometimes in the strangest places... its really funny how it works ..... I think that if you let yourself relax and Follow Your HEART ... your DREAMS will follow you .... you can make it happen ... I am proof of how DREAMS do come TRUE .... Its not easy and it takes lots of hard work ... but the BIGGER you DREAM .... the more chances you will have for SUCCESS !!

SO DREAM BIG !!!

Okay now for the little giveaway ... I would like to give away a small charm necklace custom with your words for 2010 .... so the only thing you have to do is leave a comment with your wish or word/words( or pick one of mine) for 2010 on this post ... I will leave the comments open for the next week ....


HaPpY NeW YeArS !!!!!!!!!

She believes ...

Yes I do BELIEVE ... I have always been a believer in the MAGIC of Christmas... and its so easy during the holidays to forget what a special time of year it is... to be with family and friends... and to reflect on yourself and what you really truly cherish... To LIVE with INTENTION and to make a DIFFERENCE in your lives..... I was reading my friends blog and she posted this ...
It spoke volumes to me ... just loved it ... the new year is coming .. and I have lots of changes coming ... I have Sales Reps starting in the Pacific Northwest which is a huge change for me , Exciting & Scary ..., taking my business to another level with employees to help me ... I am learning I can't do everything and to let go of some of the control .... To let LIFE guide me .... I have another Tradeshow going on over here in January and some other really exciting news to share in the New Year ...the kind that made me jump for joy ... and cry ... and feel very very BLESSED... Beyond words I feel blessed by all my support from all my readers, friends , family and customers...
but when its all said and done ... I still just love to enjoy the small things .... and which is why for the next couple weeks I am going to be INTENTIONAL and spend some time REFLECTING, .... ENJOYING my little guys.... RELAXING ..... and LISTENING to what my HEART says... taking some time off (which is hard for me especially when my studio is in my house ) So I will try to pop in and say hello ... but I really want to break away from the computer for a few days to REFRESH ... BREATHE ,.... and ENJOY ..... as we all get caught up in all hustle and bustle of the holidays... just SLOW down for a few days....

and i realize that some of us are struggling , going through tough times , missing loved ones (I miss my dad terribly during this time ) so i wish to you that you can find some inner PEACE too... and set that aside just for a couple days

I hope you all get lost in the MAGIC of CHRISTMAS this year ....

Happy Holidays
(whatever your religion or beliefs may be )
