Jewelry
As you can tell from my "mini Etsy" to the side, I have some new listings. I did a few crosses and was very pleased with the out come. My mom was having a fit over them and was telling me about how one would go with this outfit and the other would go with this other outfit I have and so on. She is so funny! Every time I make something it convenietly goes with something she owns. She is one of my best customers! lol Anyway, outside of the crosses I have also been making some flower earrings. These earrings are very light and all are on sterling silver except one which I put on 14k gold filled (this will be the first picture below). Some like the sterling and while others like the 14k gold fill so I have plenty of supplies for both. I have not posted these on Etsy yet so you get the first viewing of them. I hope to add them later today or first thing in the morning.
I am working on my website to get my jewelry listed on pages rather than the webstore since my limit is 30 items. I do have some vintage pins that I have/will list in the webstore. That is why I have been making sure to list most everything on Etsy for the time being.
http://www.harmonyjewelrydesign.com/ will have all of my jewelry soon. :)
The B&B (Bread and Breakfast)
I had been invited to be a part of "Southern Porch & Garden Party" put on by the Arts Council of Chester County. I was located at An Inn on York Street. When I arrived to set up I was amazed at the size of the yard! The front yard had a brick and iron fence with a gate entrance. Once you entered you drive down a paved driveway which will take you to a small parking area.
I went in to find out where I was to set up and I know my chin had to have hit the floor when I walked in the front door! I saw this beautiful entry way that was absolutely breathtaking. I was then greeted by this gentleman named Mark. He went out on the front porch to show me where I would need to set up. During our set up I met his wife Sandie. She brought my mom and I something to drink and chatted with us for a few minutes. We then toured this most remarkable and beautiful home. I have attached a link so that you can see a slideshow get a glimpse of what beauty we were graced with. They did their own decorating!

This couple is from England and have such a beautiful British accent. When they were looking for a home in the US they were wanting a place that had all four seasons. They had heard about this house being for sale and felt the Chester, SC was such a nice southern town with a relaxed and slower pace. It didn't hurt that there are golf courses nearby. Once they decided to make their home into a Bed and Breakfast they wanted to make this an opportunity to attract golfer couples to our area. They have "Unique Golf Holidays" which they will book and arrange to your liking. There are more than 20 golf courses within 35 minutes of this Inn. You will be able to golf and when finished arrive here to be pampered. There are four large en-suite guest rooms with each one having its own name. The Ernest Hemmingway Suite, Mark Twain Suite, Noel Coward Suite and Oscar Wilde Suite all beautifully furnished, air-conditioned, equipped with a plasma DVD televisions and comes with cotton robes and slippers!
