Silly, but necessary!



Vancouver Fashion Week was a nutty experience and I needed a lot of wine to get through it! Here is my very first interview and a little peek at the exciting event! stay tuned for more photos...

BTW: Scroll down to the product slide by Slide.com and click the speaker icon to turn off the music! Then you can hear what kind of cacaphony I am spewing on the interview. Keep in mind that I was scared, tipsy, and feeling a bit like the proverbial Deer-in-the-headlights!

Getting Traffic.

Living in the Vancouver area, sitting in traffic is a way of life. It's funny how commuters have adapted to the time spent sitting in their cars, using the time for phone calls, email, relaxing (I have a bath, myself) or even napping (hmm...) Personally, I will do everything I can to avoid traffic no matter how badly my children need something (is that bad?) Having a home-based business, such as my jewelery design endeavour, means that now I can choose when the best times are for appointments and errands versus an employer telling me, then having to race - in traffic - to meet their demand.

How ironic then that traffic has once again become a large part of my daily existence, only this time I annoyingly NEED the traffic. Web traffic, that is. And without hard work, web traffic is as scarce as cheap gas. I'm hoping that through blog sharing, word of mouth and a bit of your personal investment into this blog and business, meaningful site traffic will prevail! If anyone out there knows the best web highway to take that is jam packed with traffic bottlenecks, honk your horn!

"Traffic" Signature Collection 2008 happens to be one of my most prized designs. It's large, in charge and will amp up anyone's personal style. The 144 baby Swarovski crystals are suspended within loops of Sterling Silver and they glitter madly. Available in many colours, these earrings will keep anyone who is stuck in traffic occupied by offering numerous activities like, counting the crystals and/or loops, staring into the sparkles or repeatedly looking in your rearview mirror admiring how beautiful you look when you wear these.
