Catching Up, Part 1

November was a very hectic month for me. Between volunteering for this years DIFFA event, Holidays by Design, appearing on television, having 2 Thanksgiving dinners, hosting an Open House at Coveted Home, getting our e-commerce website up (more on that in a future post!!) and going to a really amazing wedding...well lets just say I was pretty taxed.

I have fully recuperated and am ready to tackle the month of December! But first I want to extend a big Thank You to my fabulous employees and family who always take care of me and the shop when I am over extended, you are all so appreciated by me. 

The first event of November was our Holiday Open House with a special trunk show with our friend and featured jewelry artist, Sara Cramer. Sara's jewelry is handmade and she imports the glass beads from Japan. I fell in love with her line, having never really seen anything else out there like it. I immediately reached out to Sara and was so happy when she agreed to collaborate with Coveted Home as a retail partner.

Customers perused the jewelry offerings

Our friend Addie, who tried as many pieces of Sara's jewelry as she could fit! Check out those leopard print cuffs at the tops of her arms...one of those is on my wish list! 

My sister Amanda, who is also the Creative Director at Coveted Home, happens to be an entertaining maven. She seriously rivals the likes of Martha Stewart. I rely on her to pull these types of parties off without a hitch. She knows just what kind of apps, drinks, flowers, music and entertainment to combine together for a beautifully crafted good time.

A heart felt thank you to all of our loyal customers and friends who stopped by to enjoy this day with us!
