Welcome to the Holiday Shop Hop 2011

Saturday, December 3rd and Sunday, December 4th

A special “Thank you” to Michelle Buettner at MiShel Designs http://www.misheldesigns.blogspot.com/ for organizing this!

What is Shop Hop?

It is a GREAT way for you to find gorgeous, one of a kind goodies for all your gift giving this year! There’s jewelry (of course), toys, wearable goods, bath and body products, candles. etc, etc! All handcrafted and unique! Wouldn’t it be so much nicer to buy from and support an artist vs buying from the big box chains?

Some of the artists have listed their online stores. Others have listed their blogs, where you can find links to their stores. Many have special deals for today and tomorrow only. So please, browse through the list below and enjoy the Holiday Shop Hop!

As a special way to thank my customers and friends for participating, I have added a 20% discount for any purchases made between today and Monday December 5th!  Just use coupon code:  Shophop to receive the discount!

I will be exhibiting at the following upcoming shows:

November 5-6 2011  Scottsdale Home, Art & Garden Show.  Westworld, Scottsdale.

November 11-13, 2011 Fountain Hills Fine Art Festival, Fountain Hills, AZ.

You can also always see lots of my designs at the gallery in Cave Creek, Red Truck Trading.  I have an entire showcase there filled with jewelry year round!

Come see me at one of the shows!  I have lots of new designs!

I have loaded the case at Red Truck Trading in Cave Creek for Christmas.  Some of my newest and best pieces are there including this fantastic new necklace!  The pendant on this piece is a large Titanium purple Druzy with giant crystals!  It is just amazing!  It took me over 2 years to find the perfect beads for this piece, but I finally found them!  They are Amethyst beads with a Titanium coating on them, so they match perfectly.  I also used an inlaid Amethyst clasp on this piece.  The ladies at Red Truck Trading are drooling over it, so if you want it, you need to hurry up there.  I am not doing any more shows before Christmas, so shop the website or go to Red Truck Trading in Cave Creek (just past Harolds on the same side of the street).  There is a big vintage red pickup truck parked out front (hence the name).  You can’t miss it!

To all my new customers from the Fountain Hills show, a big Thank you! Don’t forget to check the website and also don’t forget to check Red Truck Trading in Cave Creek as I have jewelry for sale there! I will be taking new things to the store this week as well as updating the website. Thank you! Lisa

 Fantastic faceted Lapis teardrops highlighted by faceted Pyrite beads.  All finished off with a gorgeous inlaid Lapis clasp.  Fabulous!

I will be at the Fountain Hills Art Festival this weekend. Booth #F47. Come see me if you’re in the area. Here’s a preview of a few new designs I did for the show:

  Here is a new necklace I just finished!  It is so much fun and just gorgeous!  The pendant is a Spirit Quartz.  These come from Africa.  The necklace is a double strand of freshwater lilac pearls with Sterling Silver spacer beads.  It has a toggle clasp with amethyst on both ends.  It is a long necklace…the longest strand measures 26″ and the shorter strand is 24″.  It is $350.00.  No room on the website for it at the moment, so if you would like to purchase it, just email me!  You will LOVE it!

Just found out I will be in the Fountain Hills Art Festival again this year!  November 12-14 near the fountain!  Hope to see you there!

The Rose Quartz necklace is sold!  The Druzy piece is still available though!  Time to make some more goodies!

Look at this gorgeous new necklace I just finished!  It’s 3 strands of absolutely gorgeous stones including Aquamarine, Kyanite, Apatite and Freshwater Pearls.  Fabulous Chalcedony Druzy pendant hangs from this piece.  It’s just awesome!  Will be listing this on the website soon so look for it there or email me for more info!
