Vacation Week

Decided to take the week off and catch up on life but I guess the weeks going at such a fast pace I can't keep up with it! I had a night out with my girlfriends and can't believe how much I needed the time with them to reflect on life, laughter and joy...
I have also been out shopping and one of my favorite stores Loehmanns closed down last week! I was sad as they always had such pretty amazing deals! I will definitely miss them...
Below is a piece that I have done many times over of Charging Shark/Marlin...hope you like it!

Valentines On Site Engraving...Bloomingdales/Nordstrom


I had a great time engraving at the following venues I've listed below leading upto Valentines! Big Thank you to everyone for being so accomodating and a pleasure to work with! The Valentine Deals were amazing and I do hope you went out and got something for that special someone... Ralph Lauren had a giveaway of dozen roses with purchase of Romance which only cost $88 dollars and think of how much it cost to buy a dozen roses especially at Valentines! The Beverly center Bloomingdales also included a diamond Pendant with purchase...what a great deal! I actually thought of buying myself my own valentines gift but again wouldn't that be cheesy?? Check out the Valentine Packaging as well from Flowerbomb which I Loved and you can definitely use it for storage:) 
Big Thank you to!

Time flies...just the other day we were celebrating Christmas! 
Been superbly busy this month and I am quite happy as I love keeping busy and on the go! Last Saturday I was at Norstrom Santa Anita engraving in the afternoon..the whole staff were absolutely fabulous and welcoming! Can't wait to return to their store on February 22 for their Dior Event. So excited to be invited back! Loved working with them...
