This is only part of the booty that Lana Kinney is giving away at her blog "something unique by Lana."  I hope you'll all visit Lana.  She's a relatively new blogger ... been at it for five months ... and she's doing a great job.  I love the look of her site.

Say "Hello" to the New Me!

Some of you will remember that after I had seen my first video by K.C. Willis at her Marketing Mindset online workshop, I wrote on my blog that I had plans to "change my look."  A topic of the first video was creating a "Signature Style."  This really struck home with me because of my two etsy shops ... one for torch-fired enamel and the other for jewelry.  I wanted to establish a cohesive, unified look that would reflect aspects of both businesses. Designer and artist, Sandra Busta, took my words and created these visual representations.  Click on the banners to see them in action!

and 

So, the next challenge will be to get the word out so that followers of my jewelryofdistinction blog will jump ship and join me here. As a way to get the word out, I am offering three spectacular bead giveaways of my torch-fired beads! The giveaways will be for medium bead groupings in the colors of Dusty Rose, Dusty Blue, and Mandarin Orange.  

                                      

                                                                   Dusty Blue

                                  

                                                           Dusty Rose
