Pearls, Rocks, and Beads

 

The jewelry section in the shop got a makeover and I'm liking it.  The wood background really highlights the piece, instead of getting lost on my white background.  Also, if you're liking the pretty and feminine bags, find them here.

 

The jewelry you see here, as well as the rest of the shop will be 15% off until Christmas, and what lovely gifts these would make!  Or, maybe the perfect accessory to your holiday dress? Have a happy Monday!

It's been several weeks since my last shop update.  I still have reds and pinks creeping in due to an overflow from Valentine's Day I guess.  I got a little pink and red happy this year.  I think it has to do with having a daughter.  Good thing pairing red and pink seems to be the trend this season, which I have to admit is actually nice to look at.  Enjoy the shop update and click on the captions to take you to the item!

This week's shop update is somewhat large and just a little bit of everything.  I didn't really post much while I was away on my mini-vacation and there's no exact theme.  The only common thing is I really like all of these items.  So many of them are hard to let go.  But, income for the fam comes before my shopping needs, so up in the shop they go.  Just click on the captions to direct you to the item and the shop is still on sale until I reach 900! Only 8 more sales to go!
