Mother's Day Giveaway & Other News!!

Hello Everyone!

Just a quick blog to let you all know what is going on in my neck of the woods.... 

First off, I would like to announce that I am participating in a Mother's Day giveaway, hosted by Life Songs of a Busy Mom.  The winner will be announced on Mother's Day.  You can check out the details on her blog here.  This is a MASSIVE giveaway, with prizes totaling over $1,600.00!!  ONE lucky mom will win it ALL!  Super awesome, right!?  Make sure to check it out & enter for a chance to win!

After a month long hiatus, I have finally returned home and back to designing.  That break was MUCH needed and well spent; I spent my time with family and friends back home in Texas and Arizona. I also spent some time just relaxing, reading and catching up on sleep.  It was pretty amazing!  Now I am back and ready to kick it into high gear!  I expect the month of May to be VERY productive for me. 

I am planning a trunk show here in Monument, Colorado.  I am also planning on getting some of my jewelry into local boutiques around the U.S.  So keep an eye out!  You might see my stuff in a boutique near you! 

I am also working on some new design concepts and a possible collaboration with the infamous Maxwell Black Collective.  I will keep you updated on that.  I am also looking into loaning some of my specialty pieces out to anyone who may be interested (pinups, models, photo shoots, weddings, ect).  As most of you may know by now, I loaned out some of my specialty pieces to the fabulous pinup, Lucy Luck, about a month ago.  Classy Keen Magazine liked her photos so much, they will be publishing them in an upcoming issue (details on that as soon as I know more).

One more thing...I am thinking about adding ad space to my blog for a small fee.  If interested, please email me at southernsideaccessories@gmail.com.  Subject line: Ad Space.

SO....as you can see, I am keeping busy, staying motivated, inspired and productive.  Thank you all for your continued support.  It means the world to me!

Good news all around!

 
 
Hello Everyone!
 
I hope everyone is having a good week so far!  Just wanted to write a quick blog to let you all know of the good news that has been sprouting up with Southern Side Accessories.
 
First of all, most of you all may know, but in case you don't, I'm excited to announce that my jewelry will be published in Classy Keen Magazine!  The lovely Lucy Luck will be wearing my jewelry.  Photos were taken by CayS In Wonderland photography and makeup and hair done by the fabulous Alanna Little.  We are all excited that our work will be published!  I can't thank Lucky Luck, Christina from CayS In Wonderland photography and Classy Keen Magazine, enough!  I'm honored and grateful to have this opportunity!  Hopefully this will just be the beginning of an awesome collaboration! :)  I will post more details as they arrive to me about which edition of the magazine our stuff will be published and how you can buy yourself a copy!
 
Secondly, IT'S OFFICIAL!  I have the domain rights to www.southernsideaccessories.com.  You can take a peek at the site now if you would like. However, it doesn't look like much yet.  It is still all under construction.  Photos of my jewelry by the awesome James Tanksley are still being photographed and my website developer is still hard at work trying to make everything look just right!
 
So far, April has been a very good month for Southern Side Accessories!  Here's to hoping it will continue!  Thank you everyone for your continued support and love!  I couldn't do it without you all either!  I feel truly blessed!
 
Until next time....
