I spent all day yesterday with the lovely Tams. Our goal was to fix up her husband Matt's office for a big blowout party they are having this weekend, and after 2 trips to the local hardware store, 3 cans of paint, a marathon run for accessories through Target, I would say that we were successful. Since I had to leave while the paint was still drying I didn't get to snap any shots of the finished product, but Tam never fails to photograph the goods, so stay tuned.
She also took a look at some of the jewelry I've been working on and convinced me to get out there and try to sell some of it. She has a had a lot of success with her Etsy shop, and I think that I might give it a go as well. I think my goal at this point is to have something up and running in about a month - I want to get a good inventory before I open the store, so it looks like I'm somewhat legit. Here's some of the goodies I've been working on...





The hardest part right now is coming up with a name. I would like to find something that could grow into a business name, if things go that direction. It would be great if it could work for jewelry, accessories like purses and things, and maybe work for interior design too - in case I decide to do freelance work in that department too. So here's the deal, I need some help. I came up with some words that I like, or that I think relate to me and might be able to be worked into a business name. Here they are:

• my nickames: ducey and ruby
• nest, domain, adorned, accoutrements, bella, loot, goods, purple house, creates or creations
• something to do with hecho or mano - handmade in spanish
• something like encanto - glamour in portuguese
• a better, more creative way of saying finishing touches, or the little things...

I don't know, writing those out now they all sound really lame... I need some creative collaboration!
