A Very Good Day

Today something exciting happened--I made a brand new gemstone necklace at my store today, put it out for sale on a display bust, and sold it less than twenty minutes later. That is officially the fastest that I have ever sold a new piece! It was the first thing--and my favorite thing--that I sold at the store all day. I was, of course, very excited to sell the necklace, but I was also a little bit sad that I didn't get to have very much time with it. And, I never got to take it home to properly photograph either!

I did at least manage to snap a quick picture before I wrapped the necklace up, which you can see here. You can't really see all the details, but you get an idea. It really was beautiful, if I do say so myself. And now, the necklace is on its way to Toronto with its lovely new owner. I hope she really enjoys it!!!

I'm also excited about something else today--I am happy to announce that my mother and I are going to be collaborating on an Imprint By Eileen 2012 holiday line! My mom is a super talented, creative, artistic person, and I can't wait to work with her on this. She is also very talented with textiles, and I feel very confident that together, we will create a beautiful line of products. The line will be available starting on Black Friday--online, as well as in my store. We will be starting work on some samples next week, so more news (and pictures!) will be coming very soon. I can't wait!! Have a good weekend everyone!!
