DRESS FOR SUCCESS

Image
This is an awesome organization.  I have had the privilege of working with Amie and several other ladies right here in St. Charles.  They assist women that have been incarcerated or divorced or just happen to be on bad times.  They work with them to prepare them to go back into the work force.  We are fortunate here in St. Charles they have their own building and so much more.  They have classes, fitness area, computer center, classroom, and of course a dress shop to prepare them for their job interviews!   So, don't throw away those suits that you are not wearing anymore or shoes that don't fit or that purse that you don't like to use anymore and yes, even jewelry!    Consider donating to DRESS FOR SUCCESS!!!  Someone else will appreciate what you once enjoyed.  It will be a NEW item for them to enjoy! and by the way....LIA SOPHIA donates about $500,000 to this organization......plus   LOTS OF JEWELRY!!!  For more informat...

Happy St. Patrick's Day and a little history

Image
  We are ALL Irish for a day right?   Love this holiday...fun, fun, fun!  enjoy the parades, the green beer(not for me anymore), Irish coffee, Bailey's,  ...hmmmm, is there a pattern here?   I'm not much of a drinker anymore.  It's fun to watch all of the people though that do.    On my facebook page - Jewelry Gems - we had a contest where I asked everyone to submit some facts about St. Patrick's Day.  Here is what the winner had to say about this famous holiday! St Patrick was the most commonly recognized patron saint of Ireland. St p day also commemorates the arrival of Christianity in Ireland. St p day was made an official feast day in early 17th century and has gradually become a celebration o f the Irish culture in general. This day is characterized by the wearing of green, lifting of Lenten food restriction, attending church and drinking of alcohol. It is probably the most celebrated saints day in the world.    GREAT INF...

HOME BASED BUSINESS

I love it! I know it is not for everyone, but it is such a great way to make additional money or use this as your only income.   So many companies offer so many things.  I have sold a lot of them, Avon, Stampin Up, Creative Memories, and Sarah Coventry jewelry many years ago.  I think that is why I was drawn to lia sophia!    I love jewelry! It is wonderful to get a paycheck every week. It is wonderful to set your own hours, how many parties that you want to have. It is wonderful to have your own office, be your own boss. It is wonderful to meet so many of you. When I first started, it was all about the money, it still is, because I'm working to pay off certain things so I can retire in two years, but the best part about this business is YOU!   That is why I have my GRATITUDE CAMPAIGN this year , to thank you.   Without you, I wouldn't be in business! It is so much fun to have hostesses excited about their jewelry!   After delivering eve...

I love the pillow earrings, Sash ring, Oracle necklace and the Integer Bracelet...love love love that!  These pieces are great to throw on when you are dashing out the door, throw that necklace over your neck, slap on that bracelet and ring.   Put the earrings in your pocket for when you have time to put them on...
