This is a little different than what I have been doing…I want to use this space for my “Views & Reviews” of news, publications, books, websites and events in the Jewelry & Gemology fields!
So – it will be a “fly on the wall” view – please feel free to leave comments or email me privately. Your input matters!!!!!
For those of you who don’t know my background I had a beaded jewelry business 20+ years ago when the “Bohemian” look was called the “Gypsy” look!
I went from there to a career in fundraising for various non-profits, all the while still collecting, drooling and, yes, fondling gems! I am now a free-lance PR and Marketing professional and have decided to return to my first love!
I am currently taking Jewelry Design and Lapidary classes at Venice Adult School (Venice, CA) and am working toward my Graduate Gemologist certification from GIA.
I am an avid blogger:

For those of you who are used to my Fly On The Wall Blog on Multiply.com – this is the newly revamped blog. I am not happy that Multiply added advertising to their pages…I have worked hard to NOT sell from my blogs.
My new favorite quote is:
