About Me

YOU ARE MY SHINING STAR

7:54 PM

I am grateful and honored to be the Shining Star of the Women's Jewelry Association Boston Chapter.

Thank you for all of your support, kindness and friendship over this past year.

I look forward to celebrating more shining moments with you this year, and beyond.

"When you wish upon a star

Dreams will take you very far, yeah

When you wish upon a dream

Life ain't always what it seems, oh yeah

Once you see your light so clear

In the sky so very dear

You're a shinig star, no matter who you are

Shining bright to see what you can truly be

That you can truly be...."

GLANCING BACK : SPRING/SUMMER 2014

11:59 AM

As seasons change, I like to glance back into my favorite jewelry adventures - a highlight of shinning moments.

There is more to be found in our pages!

Happy Reading.

As Gem Gossip's Boston Correspondent I visited Quadrum Gallery

Finally met Top Notch Faceting in person (and again recently)

Quadrum Gallery named me their new favorite Bostonian on their blog! Pinch me!

Took two very different road trips : Saratoga and Brimfield

Joined WJA Boston (NE Affiliate) and was appointed Vice President. (Blushing)

Plus, a lot has happened since then...

A SWEET TREAT FOR THE JEWELRY INDUSTRY

10:39 AM

Are you in the jewelry industry? If so, I encourage you to save the date for the Women's Jewelry Association annual Jewelry Night Out on September 18th at Modern Pastry in the historic North End of Boston, Massachusetts. If you live outside of the Boston area there are 15 chapters sprinkled throughout the United States for you to join and become a member!

15 Chapters in 15 Cities will celebrate and unite on the same evening.

That's a pretty big deal.

This is not only exciting to me since I was invited to sit on the board of the newly formed Boston Chapter (an Affiliate of the New England Chapter) but this is where the Women's Jewelry Association originated! Over thirty years ago, a few ambitious women got together in a basement and formed an amazing association to network, collaborate and support each other within the male dominated jewelry industry. How fabulous. Now it's back - in Boston!

You can be apart of this too! On this one evening only, and only by attending a Jewelry Night Out in person (otherwise known in the industry as JNO) you will save generously on your new or renewing membership PLUS get to mingle with other industry professionals at exclusive WJA events. So, I'll see you there?

I know, I did mention we will be partying it up at Modern Underground which is located downstairs from the Boston's sweet North End landmark that is Modern Pasty, but unfortunately this event is not open to the general public. You can, at any time, visit Modern pastry for an exquisite array of deliciousness on your own, and be sure to tell me what your favorite sweet treat was, because I have such a sweet tooth!
