Amaria donation benefitting HAWC

I have finally completed the necklace that I will be donating for the Houston Area Women's Shelter Event called Toast & Treasures. Toast & Treasures is the Official Kickoff Party for Race against Violence that is being planned by Vida Events & Marketing benefitting the Houston Area Women's Shelter on February 25, 2010 from 6:30pm to 9:00 pm at Ruggles Grill. The actual race is on March 6, 2010 at 8am at Sam Houston Park @ Bagby.

INSPIRATION: The piece is called Bat- Eli Hebrew name for "Daughter of my God". Turquoise is believed to bring happiness and good fortune to all. A master healing stone that promotes spontaneity in romance and stimulates the initiation of romantic love. It balances and aligns all chakras and subtle bodies and can bring all energies to a higher level. A highly spiritual stone, yet grounding, it brings soothing energy and peace of mind. It brings strength, wisdom, protection, and positive thinking.

DESCRIPTION: The necklace is made of 14k gold fill crimped chain with wire wrapped faceted turquoise briolettes and 22k vermeil circle twisted links. The necklace measures approximately 18" with a 2" chain extension.

SUGGESTED RETAIL: $ 475

New Year, New Projects

Happy New Year everyone! I am a little late in blogging cause I had technical difficulties with my blog. This month has been pretty busy so far. I have been planning for the spring season and really the rest of the year. I have several projects in the works but one that is most dear is Toast and Treasures Official Kickoff Party for Race against Violence that is being planned by Vida Events & Marketing benefitting the Houston Area Women's Shelter on February 25, 2010 from 6:30pm to 9:00 pm at Ruggles Grill. The actual race is on March 6, 2010 at 8am at Sam Houston Park @ Bagby.

I am designing a special necklace for the silent auction and will be at the Kickoff Party. As soon as the necklace is completed, I will be posting on my blog. Stay tuned!

Please come on out and support this very important cause. I personally believe that if the woman is not a pillar of strength in the household, the family falls apart. We need to help this wonderful organization that supports survivors of domestic and sexual violence, as well as provides prevention education to youth and the community. With these economic tough times, this organization has seen an increase in the number of women needing their support and the decrease of donations. Start out the new year giving to a great cause!! Hope to see you there!

Thank you for supporting a great cause!
