<description><![CDATA[
<p>A big THANK YOU to all of you that joined me at The Thomas H. Slater Center on December&nbsp; 12, 2009. The general turnout was on the low side but&nbsp;i was fortunate to have an abundance of visitors to my booth.&nbsp; The different vendors that were there had some beautiful quality items and many of us wound up patronizing each other.&nbsp; These events are beautiful in the fact that one does get to meet so many talented people.</p><p>There are&nbsp;days, such as that one, when a customer tries on a&nbsp;peice of jewelry, and&nbsp;you realized that you designed it just for her, even if you've never met her before. So was the purchaser of the <strong>Agate</strong> <strong>Majesty Necklace</strong> (which made it's debut at the show as well as a number of peices from my&nbsp; <strong><u><em>Channelling HOT Coco Collection</em></u></strong> <strong>).</strong> When she put it on, it had her name on it.<img src="http://www.artisansaccomplice.com/artists/gallery/331/dbimg/4580_b.jpg" alt="" /></p><p>I also had the feeling about the <strong>Carnelian Mardi Gras</strong> peice that was also purchased at the show. The purchaser bought it&nbsp;to give as a gift, but when she tried it on -- it shouted her name.&nbsp; I&nbsp; will be curious to know if the&nbsp;&quot;giftee&quot; actually receives it.&nbsp;&nbsp;<img src="http://www.artisansaccomplice.com/artists/gallery/331/dbimg/4581_b.jpg" alt="" /></p><p><font size="5"><strong><em>Hope all of you have a blessed holiday&nbsp; and and abundance in every catagory of your lives for the New Year!</em></strong></font></p>

WINE GLASS CHARMS

<description><![CDATA[
<p><img src="http://www.artisansaccomplice.com/artists/gallery/331/dbimg/2708_b.jpg" alt="" />HI ALL OF YOU PATIENT ONES- </p><p>I finally got the pics out of the camera and on my website. One of my latest items &quot;Wine Glass Charms&quot; are here. If you have ever put your glass down at a party and don't remember which&nbsp;drink was yours, you will surely appreciate&nbsp; these. They are made up of the same semi precious stones that I use for my jewelry. The charms fit neatly around the bottom of your wine glass and each set will contain 4 different charms. If you are ordering multiple sets at the same time I will make sure that there are no duplicates in the offering. Since I don't know what stones I will be using ahead of time, you will just have to trust my judgment--don't worry they will be tasteful. Add to your Diva-ness.&nbsp;PLUS&nbsp; they are at a good price.&nbsp; Go to the Misc. catagory on the Gallery lineup on the main page. Enjoy!</p><p>Evangeline&nbsp;</p>

<p><font style="background-color: #000000"><img src="http://www.artisansaccomplice.com/artists/gallery/331/dbimg/2748_b.jpg" alt="" />Happy&nbsp;Cinco de<img src="http://www.artisansaccomplice.com/artists/gallery/331/dbimg/2748_a.jpg" alt="" /> Mayo!!</font></p><p><font style="background-color: #000000">&nbsp;I was doing inventory on my supply of stones to create some new peices to feature in the Open Studio event, at the Westchester Arts Building ,where I have my studio.&nbsp; </font><font style="background-color: #000000">In the course of doing that, I found I had many small piles of small stones, usually used for filler on some of the more intricate peices.&nbsp;&nbsp; As I was collecting them and trying to put them in some orderly fashion I began to save them on random peices of wire.&nbsp; It suddenly dawned on me that these might make some interesting &quot;Wine Glass Charms&quot;. Great little trinkets that help you keep track of your OWN wine glass at a gathering. So that is my new 'current offering' item.&nbsp; </font><font style="background-color: #000000">And also found that I am a Carnelian fiend, with so many variations on that stone, that I had to do something special with the hugh quantity.&nbsp; That culminated into the creation of 'Carnelian Mardi Gras' - hope you like this new peice, which will be unveiled at the 'Open Studios- Arts Bash on May 15-16, 2009 at the Westchester Arts Bldg, 31 Mamaronek Ave. White Plains, NY- then featured on the website.</font></p>

<description><![CDATA[
<p align="center">My designing started&nbsp;for purely selfish reasons. </p><div>Not being able to find the items of jewelry and accessories&nbsp;that I wanted,in my so-called, avant-garde style and a relatively reasonable price point, I started making what I wanted. Is there really a <em>style </em>to what I do? Probably not. I just see stones, beads and any thing else that catches my fancy, add whiff of earthyness and see what becomes interesting to me. The mix of the semi- precious stones such as AGATE, JASPER, CORAL , PEARLS, AVENTURINE, JADE, TURQUOISE, CARNELIAN,&nbsp;ART GLASS&nbsp;&nbsp;with, STERLING SILVER, CROCHETED WIRE , GOLD FILLED AND VERMIELED&nbsp;&nbsp;findings,&nbsp;and even such items as RESIN&nbsp; and MYHRR&nbsp;just seem to take the interst to a different level.&nbsp; Apparently, the <em>interesting</em> part also appeals to others as I often found myself selling my designs off of my neck. While I've just have been around for a scant couple of years, the collections seem to appeal to &quot;Every Woman With a Little Diva in Her!&quot; .....&nbsp;Is that you?<!--"''"-->&nbsp;&nbsp;</div>
