As a designer and a visual person by nature, I am a firm believer that a pictures tell a thousand words. So, in that spirit, I decided to use “modern day pictures,” a video, to share my holiday thoughts.
Every holiday season, I reflect on how much I have to be grateful for. I am particularly grateful for your support and the support of great friends and fans.

If you are one of those volunteers, THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart.

I would normally wait to blog until closer to my QVC appearance, but I wanted to say hello to all of you.
I have been reading the QVC forum, in which there has been much speculation about my health, which is excellent, and my business, which is great. Thank you so much for your concern. It means so much to me to have loyal and loving fans like you.

Each new piece takes at least 6 months to create from my first sketch to the moment I share it with all of you on TV. It is a true labor of love in which I develop many samples and play around with different textures and gemstones with each design and silhouette. Often times, I will "test drive" a piece and wear it around town to see if any of my friends take notice. If a piece becomes the topic of a lunch time conversation and gets passed around the table at Fred's, t...
