New Year!!

So I updated our blog....yeah I love the new look, but what I should have been doing all along is reinventing it. Let me know what you think. Does it need more color? More design, or should I just focus on the jewelry? I am so excited for something new. I am determined that 2010 is going to be a great year, and with that I am making some business changes. We will no longer have a shopping cart on our website. We are now going to post our designs on our site but you will need to purchase them through www.1000markets.com which is owned by amazon. It is a great site. We are changing our blog and just making it sleeker and I have updated Etsy.....who knew time at home could be so productive!!

Next redo the living room, new paint, new furniture arrangement!!! I love the new year!! Oh and of course new designs coming!!!

Parkside Pharmacy

So for those of you Sacramentans who are looking for a little something different, have you been to the Parkside Pharmacy? It is a great new place that has just gone up next to La Bou on Del Rio in William Land Park. If you haven't seen a pharmacy that makes you want to shop, you will now....Parkside has great gifts, great jewelry (yes, ours also) and they have a esthetician who is readily available not just to do treatments but she actually cares about what you put on your face and what you do to your skin. They have lotions, soaps, great cards, magazines (yes fashion magazines) and best of all, the women who work there are delightful and entertaining. A Pharmacy that is really a BOUTIQUE.....what will they come up with next...I can't wait!!!!

KKPW Designs and Tucson, Arizona

Yes we just got back from Tucson, Arizona where the largest gem show is offered once a year....don't think that we didn't find some of the most amazing stones including....opals, sapphires, amethyst, rubies, tourmaline, spinel, pearls and so much more....the weather was great and our hotel was wonderful, beautiful with the best food you have ever had. We spend 2 full days walking the show, and yes buying. There were so many great stones to see and oooo and ahhh at, some we could definitely invest in and some that we just wanted to look at and dream of using in our designs. Overall though, I give the trip an A+, already planning for next year, now that is exciting!! Look for some great new designs using our great new finds real soon!!!
Also, if you haven't checked out Stringing Magazine, go to http://www.stringingmagazine.com/contributors.asp to see KKPW Designs as a contributor with the magazine coming out on the news stand this month. More to come as always!!!
