Capture Your Beauty

Riding in the car with my husband listening to his road rage and as he is nearly involved in an accident caused by someone else's road rage on a busy street here on the north side of Chicago I begin to feel like I was having a panic attack. Everything was moving so fast. Everything was so noisy. Everyone seemed to have permanent RBF, and I felt like I just needed to zen out for a moment. So from that moment I came up with the idea of taking advantage of the smallest piece of something that I can find that makes me smile, that makes me want to thank God for showing me this little piece of beauty for the moment. I started looking for things that was beautiful to me and it made me feel like it was God telling me a sweet and innocent secret. So here are a few of the pictures that I captured mostly while doing my morning walk. To view more "Like" my Facebook page here, or follow me on Twitter.

Take the time to appreciate God's gifts and capture your own beauty...

Fine Jewelry Friday!

HAPPY FRIDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry, but it's confession/venting time!  My head is screaming and spinning right now.  I'm so happy to be about 80% done with the new Jewelry, scarves and headbands, but I wish I was 100% done especially since I have 2 shows coming up this weekend!  The Vintage Clothing & Accessories show in Grayslake, IL and the  Bridal Expo, but I still have to put all of these items on the website, so if you want to order something new, you will have to email or call, and I'll email you an invoice for payment. 

I'm so upset that I've neglected my ETSY store.  I really need to be on top of this!  Does anyone else out there have this problem of letting life and facebook stop you from tending to your ETSY store?  I'm also upset that I ordered labels about 3 weeks ago, and they have yet to come, so some items this weekend will be sold without labels, and that kind of making me angry, as well as my last order of beads haven't come yet, so tonight I'll probably be up all night, and to top it off I'M SO SLEEPY, and this foggy weather isn't helping at all!

I'm so incredible thankful for my gift, and these opportunities, but I think it's just time for a nap.  Then I'll wake up and feel the imaginary sunshine on the FINE JEWELRY FRIDAY!  Have a great weekend Gods & Goddesses, I KNOW I WILL! Only to start Potty Training bootcamp with my son on Monday.  Talk to you later!

Fine Jewelry Friday

I posted this status on my facebook fanpage yesterday:

The Goddess Isis has been my muse, and inspiration for creations. She loved her husband, she loved her child, she loved her family, and nurtured everything that she came in contact with, she was gentle, and strong, elegant, and mysterious, all the characteristics of myself.



After posting this I began thinking, what about The Isis Collections will make Customers want to purchase an item, spread the word about The Isis Collections and keep them coming back for more?

I discovered that its because they can relate to my story, my mission.

TIC's Pandora Bracelet

Look at peoples arms, and what you will see are everyday leather bands, momentum bracelets like charms, silver blocks spelling out childrens names, affirmation charms, Sparkle crystals, healing Gemstones.  Why do people wear these?

They wear them cause they make them reminisce, they make them feel special, they envoke a time of happiness. 

The process of making jewelry is very theraputic with the usage of gemstones, but good for the soul in itself, and it makes us happy passing that experience that gave birth to something beautiful on to someone else.  You can feel when you've purchased something fine, and different from someone, and that keeps you going back.  The experience.
