New Use for Jewelry Pouches

My friend, Tamara sent me this photo.  For quite a while she's been using a satin jewelry pouch that I sent her as a holder for her ipod.  She says it works great and many people have asked her about it.

I need to send her a new one . . . Tamara, I hope you like eggplant color because I only have one left!

I don't actually use these for my jewelry sales. I use a sheer organza pouch since I like to be able to see through mine so I know what's in all those little pouches in my jewelry box. But when I travelled to China and shopped at the Pearl Market in Beijing, they packed up my order and used these little, empty, satin pouches in all different colors instead of packing peanuts or tissue in my box. Most of them have been given away to little girls who find them to be quite charming and to bigger girls who find other uses for them. Thanks Tamara!

About Earrings

I like to provide small services with my jewelry business that are unexpected and yet appreciated.

Some women have no trouble keeping hook earrings on and others do--mostly those who gesture and shake their heads while conversing. Earnuts are an easy way to protect your earrings. They are often difficult to find except from wholesalers so I'm offering them FREE with order if you request them.  Just type me a message in one of the "comment/gift message" boxes when you order any item from my website or in the "message to seller" if you order from my  Etsy.com store.

My earrings are hand made. They have been handled and should be cleaned before use.

I'm now enclosing one of these little alcohol preps pictured above with earrings as a convenience to you. You should clean the metal ear wires, but avoid getting the alcohol on any pearls or gemstone beads.

I Have a Winner!

I have a winner for my bleeding heart flower earrings GIVE-A-WAY using the highly scientific method of printing off a list of all my newsletter subscribers, snipping it up into slips, putting them in a bowl, holding it over my 7 year old's head while having him draw one.

Congratulations to Kathy Matchett of Florida.  Enjoy your earrings!
