I had the honor of attending Jenny Doh's launch party for the release of her latest publication, Creative Pilgrimage. Within it's pages is a beautiful spread all about my Affaire's that is in true Jenny style ~ crisp pictures, lovely words and lots of inspiration.

and I was thrilled to bring a little Affaire at Tiffany's excitement by way of a lovely seam binding bracelet project taught to me by my darling friend, Jamie Skolnik. Anything and everything that is gorgeous jewelry starts and stops with Jamie.

Our Artistic Bliss table was filled with Tiffany blue, pinks, pearls and sparkle as we made bracelets into the evening. So many sweet friends came to be supportive and all left sporting a pretty wraps around their wrists. . .

My lovely friend, Terry, took care of showing all the girls how to make the bracelets and talked up the events (as we all know, I've never been good at tooting my own horn). . .
Of course, I can't forget the fun part! I'll be giving away a copy of this sweet book here on my Blog. Just leave a comment under this post and you will be automatically entered. No liking me on Facebook (although I always appreciate a new "like") or telling me your favorite childhood story (although I love those too)! I will keep the comments open until Sunday afternoon and then pick a winner.
I am so grateful for this wonderful art community! I know there are always bumps along the road but supporting each other is the most important thing we can do together!
