If you haven't heard back from us...

We recently switched my hosting company again and there may have been some "downtime" with the site or with emails. If you had tried to contact us via email and have not heard back, please do let us know. Sometimes when switching over a site there are moments where emails go missing. Our email is up and running fine now as well as the site. We do apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Mahalo!

We are so delighted!

Hey everyone...we're on the HONOR ROLL!!!! WOW! Delight.com took a poll on the top 10 jewelry designers/sites out there and we made the list. We are on their Delight reader's honor roll and it feels fantastic!

Boy do we feel special! A wonderful gal named Jessica happens to like our Sweetie earrings for mother's day (oh boy, that's just around the corner!).

She has a great little blog called Funky Finds where she features fun (and funky) finds from the internet. Check out our mention!

2006-05-07T18:00:00.000-10:00

The wonderful Dina over at Eye4Style gave us a sweet little mention! How cool is that? She wrote about our When It Strikes Necklace as being her "current desire". Wow, we feel so lucky! :o)

How about some new earrings? Here are a few of them...

When It Strikes Earrings...

Sassy, right? Oh, and did you notice they match the necklace that was in the Bust Magazine Ad? Hmmm...lightning just like what we've been seeing in Hawaii!

Above are our new Evalyn earrings. Light yellow quartz and orange carnelian...like the sunshine that we hope to see soon.

Misty Earrings. These have got rainbow moonstones in them...one of our favorites!

2006-03-31T10:46:00.000-10:00

Is It Spring?

Hmmm...it's almost spring, right? Or is it Spring? It's almost April...Yikes! Where does the time go? Well, if you're in Hawaii it sure doesn't seem like Spring (or Hawaii right now for that matter!). It's been wet and soggy for several weeks now (over a month at least!) and the weather has been creating lots of headaches for many residents. Accidents on the roads, mudslides, flooding in homes that can't be repaired, houses on the brink of being washed away...all around ickiness! We have even unfortunately had some loss of life on some of our islands due to the crazy weather.

We just want to say that we hope everyone is well (and dry and safe).

BUST!

Pick up your copy of Bust Magazine now! The April/May issue has On a Friday in it along with a bunch of other great indie businesses from Indie Finds. Our When It Strikes Necklace is shown in the ad!

Hi all! Well, January is breezing by...

Here are the cupcakes that I made last week. I took a picture of them with a pumpkin that we had as the backdrop. Why? Well, just because there's something about cupcakes that make me happy. I'll eat one or two and then usually give the rest away. Cupcakes are fun and joyful and cute. Yummm!
