Winter CHA 2013 was Amazing

Posted on | January 18, 2013 | 4 Comments

We had a fabulous, awesome time at Winter CHA!

We debuted our first designer line, Rue RomantiqueTM by Kristen Robinson, and our new line of Iced Enamels^TM.

Spellbinders® revealed their Media Mixage™ Line with bezels and blanks designed and licensed by Susan Lenart Kazmer™. (Tip: Iced Enamels + Media Mixage Blanks = way too much fun!)

Jen Cushman signed copies of her new book, Making Metal Jewelry.

Creative, Special Projects and Mixed Media Team Members Lexi Grenzer, Susan M. Walls, Cindy Cima Edwards, Cindi Bisson and JoAnna Pierotti gave demos. To all the gentlemen who offered to help us move boxes of stuff for our booth down the parking garage stairs and held doors open for us – we send you thanks. You were chivalrous and sweet.

We met wonderful people face to face, some renewed friendships and some new. Thanks to our customers, wholesalers, team members and friends for your contributions to our success!

Theresa  at E6000 (our newest preferred partner) and the lovely folks in her office who made certain we had our class supplies, and the wonderful folks at Staz-on, Impress Art, the woman from Bazzil who kindly shared a booth tip, and Joan B. who  shared her  awesome salad recipe and lunch table!

A billboard on the night drive home through Indio, CA made Jen, Samie and Carol chuckle. It proclaimed: “We buy broken jewelry.” Carol said, “We do too!” Because even with our new lines, there is always room for found objects and repurposed jewelry.
