She is presenting ...

It's all about the details some people say.... and I would have to agree ... I have been working very hard at putting together brochures, postcards , tags etc to present myself as a "brand" - WOW sometimes that is really hard for me to grasp .... I finally put together materials for my reps - a 3 page full color brochure and a postcard - Yes the business side of things can sometimes be fun too, even though its business work (marketing etc )
I still have gotten to play with design !! Everything arrived yesterday and I have to say I was pretty proud of the turn out ...

Well there are a few events I will be attending in March here in Arizona and wanted to let you know ... Domestic Bliss is doing a fun swap and sell event and I am going to be a vendor !! It will be March 6th ! so find me in Downtown Mesa!and then the next weekend I will be at the Queen Creek Art Fair on March 13th at the wonderful new Equestrian Park !! so hopefully you will be able to come down and check one of these events out !! Would love to see you!!
until next time

She's finding her way

This 5 lb box of findings arrived at my house yesterday ... yep all mixed together just like the photo ... needing to be sorted out to use in my jewelry ... it made me think that I kind of feel the same way .... a little unravelled some days... finding my way ... some days i feel like i am on autopilot ... coasting along ... other days i feel overwhelmed with JOY living my DREAM ... some days are pretty SCARY ... leaping fearlessly into the unknown ......

(gems purchased from Tucson gem show i recently attended)

hoping i can land with my two feet firmly on the ground .... and making the right decisions for myself , my business and my family......
so i have decided to take a bigger LEAP .... I have finally hired a FULL time Personal Assistant to help me with the business side , to make sure things run smoother , to help me stay organized ... and make sure orders , inventory and the everyday things can function... it was TIME .... It was a DREAM and now i feel very BLESSED to say that my Sister n law can actually join me in my JOURNEY .... I can't be sure what the FUTURE will hold ... but all i can do is have FAITH ... that good things will come .... say hello to Heather ... my right hand gal and now Personal Assistant !!! Thanks Heather for joining me in the JOURNEY !!!

She loves her brothers ...

Well things have been a little crazy around here lately... and I really haven't had time to stop in since I am learning to balance the chaos in my life right now ... but its getting easier and i am learning alot ... alot about me and alot about how to do business ( the business part is never easy) ... so i thought I would share a little bit more about me with you ... something you may not know .... about the real Brothers and Sisters ... you know the Walker's the ones you watch on Sunday evening ??? Well here is the "True " Walker family.. yes my maiden name is Walker ..... for my mom for Christmas (not Nora, Deb-- although sometimes she might be mistaken as Nora ... LOL ...) we decided to do a little photo shoot.... We all Joke about the show... see my dads name was William Walker , and he passed away just like on the show and sometimes there are some other similar things that are almost scary ... family owned business that my dad had when he died ( i really wish it was a winery ) .... oh and lots of drama ... everyone always talking to everyone about what so and so did ... oh yeah ... its there just like the show
so with out further ado let me introduce to you the real Brothers and Sisters.... Jason, Beth, Ryan

oh and yes one of my brothers is gay just like the show....

well i hope i enlightened you a little about the real brothers and sisters ....

until next time...

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 !!!!!!!!!
