Beads of...Joy
I can't believe how fast the weekend flew by! Our Grapevine store hosted a huge trunk show this weekend. Karla, Shanna and Younghee taught free classes. I sat in a while yesterday to watch the evolution of Swarovski b… -
BEad PASSIONATE!
I have a speaking engagement this weekend. This is fairly new territory for me. I have spoken before, but it always amazes me that people actually want to listen to me. It's funny to know that people think I'm an expe… -
Counting Machine
We have come to the conclusion that the more things you have, the more BROKEN things you have. I think I'll write a book, "Karen and the Counting Machine". Oh, the saga of the counting machine! Modern technology is wo… -

Auntie's Idol
Our staff meetings are always so much fun! We meet every Monday morning at 10 to talk about our week and to bounce ideas off each other. The most exciting event we are doing now is the Auntie's Idol. We love to get c… -
Ode To A Blog
If you had asked me a year ago if I blogged I would have answered "Not in public!" Adam (my oldest) was the first to mention this word to me. Writing about a somewhat normal life and a not so normal workplace (I mean t… -
Antique Flair
After 26 years of (mostly) marital bliss, Ronnie and I have discovered a mutual passion for antiques. Years ago I found the perfect antique mall in Spring, Texas. You can wander through the asiles of aging treasures w…
