Happy New Year!

I am looking forward to being with you all on January 20th for two shows. We will have 3 hours of fun at 1:00am with Sharon and lots of laughs with Rick for 2 hours at 10:00pm. I plan to pop in on Shawn during QCheck, as well. There will be some exciting new collections to explore, as well as many new pieces to match what you may have picked up in recent shows. I am so proud to bring you jewelry that is made right here in America as part of this special Inauguration Day celebration on QVC!


I am thankful that we are all busy here at Relios designing and crafting many new collections for you in 2009! In fact, Susan, Bill and I will be traveling to the Tucson Gem and Mineral Show in early February, and are compiling our list of gems to search for. Our approach to color begins with gathering trend information from many different sources, and kind of soaking it all in. What usually happens when we arrive at the many shows in Tucson is that we are naturally drawn to certain stones based on our interpretation of the trends, how we can make them our own, and bring gems together in new and unique ways to enhance the colors we will be wearing this year.


What I love about bold, colorful jewelry is that it can literally transform something I have in my closet. The gems can bring out the best in our clothing, and our clothing can bring out a different personality in our gems depending on the play of colors.


I would love to hear what colors and gems you would love to see more of in our upcoming shows. Some of my best ideas come from you, and I truly appreciate your sharing them with me before I head for Tucson!


I look forward to hearing from you, and to spending some fun filled hours together in this New Year!


Sincerely,

Carolyn;
