Re: HOSTS NEED EXTRA INCOME?

I believe Kathy Levine had a trademark on her ring, so she did make some money.  I read that in her book years ago and hope my memory isn't incorrect.  Please let me know if I am wrong.

Good for her.  I see no reason to put her down.

Re: HOSTS NEED EXTRA INCOME?

What I really find odd is that Angel Smedley posts ads for other business on her Facebook page.  It was a local eyebrow business a few days ago and some other local business yesterday.  Weird.

Remember Bob Bowersox's cookbook?

Kathy's ring was lovely, especially, in gold. My boss, at the time, bought it in gold, and was planning to wear it 

as her wedding set, when she and her hubby, went to Europe, for their 25th anniversary. 

As I remember, she had some trouble, with her hands swelling, sometimes took her wedding set off, and didn't want to wear her real set to travel. 

That's when gold was still somewhat affordable 😉but, if I'm remembering right, that ring in gold was still quite pricey.

@Shanus.  It's pretty funny since, among the whole group, I've seen no talent and questionable taste.  We know there's a lot more involved in successfully designing jewelry than sticking a giaganic stone on a band.   Who buys and wears this stuff?

I have it too, in silver.  I've never worn it.  Heart jewelry is just too silly and not "my thing".  Don't ask why I ordered it; just caught up.in the hype.

@Kachina624   ITA. Not much design sense. Not something even taught. You either have a talent for design, eye for balance, color, etc. or you don't. Certainly no prestige to own something w/ their name on it.

Re: HOSTS NEED EXTRA INCOME?

I feel sure that the hosts might have some input since their name would be on the item, but I think that this is more about sales than any talent that a host might have.  More about the glory and a feel-good measure for the host and the viewers.

The next time that I hear salt and ice together, it better be in a margarita!
