Ladies of Peace Volume 1

Welcome to the first post celebrating the Ladies of Peace!

For those new to the mailing list, or not yet on it, Ladies of Peace is my new promotion that shows off the beautiful women who support my small business. Here's the details:

1. Post a photo of you wearing a Peace Images product on your Facebook or Twitter page (and @ reply me or tag the Peace Images Facebook page)
2. Every 8 photos I receive, I will create a blog post featuring the most recent entries.
3. Every 5 blog posts (40 entries) I'll randomly select one of the submissions to receive a $50 gift certificate to use on any item in the shop.
4. Repeat! :)

You can enter once for every Peace you have purchased, and previous sales qualify, even if you've sent me a photo wearing that Peace before--just repost it on your twitter or FB and tag me!

With no further ado, the first eight entries!

whew! how ya'll doin?

in prep for our flight to Austin, in exactly one week, we've been working frantically in the PeaceImages lab to tie up loose ends, and start some new campaigns!

first up? Ladies of Peace.
if you don't know, join the mailing list, and enlighten your self.

we're offering a chance for gift certificates to my boutique
JUST by taking photos of yourselves in your PI baubles.

we just want you to know how much we love and appreciate you!

i'm gonna try to get in more blog posts before we dip -- but in case I don't, here's some of the new ish!


my gorgeous "black roses" butterfly stud earrings are pre-selling only -- her body is a brass "mama," on surgical posts.

the first batch is sold out - next should be in by mid-April.


check me out rockin' the "word...life" earrings -- we added some swarovski's to test out some new techniques...

not really sure swarovski's are my style, though. gotta keep it true!


my adorable "kemetic studs" are back in stock for a short time!


some new cocktail rings ... i'm really feeling skinny bands right now.


and my "fatale" studs in an updated photo. since the triangles are laid by hand, each pair differs slightly.
i am not a machine :)

i fully believe that every emotion we feel stems from love, or fear. never both at the same time.
if you are feeling some kinda way, stop, take a deep breath, and ask yourself where it's stemming from.

if the negative feelings you are experiencing come from fear? just ... stop. try repeating the word "love" to yourself a few times and see how much better you feel.

feel your vibratory frequency start to rise... and notice the good things you begin to attract =)




we miss you everyday, Biggie.

doin' it, and doin' it, and doin' it well.

it's been marathon days in the lab lately (what else is new, ri?) in preparation for Austin in a couple of weeks.

marketing campaigns, 5 year planning, social networking, existing orders, new pieces. somehow we manage to do all of these things (and more) all at once, and survive! God is good :)

be sure to get those orders in over the next 7 days to make sure you won't have a delay while the PI fam jets to SXSW.

you going? holla!

movement.

i found this cute tri-bowl wooden receptacle at one of my many Goodwill marathons this weekend.

Goodwill is a great resource for setting up those tables, fellow crafters. vending season cometh!!!


speaking of .. the PeaceImages family is doing a LOT of traveling this year.

Austin in March
SF/Oak in April
NYC/Jersey in June
SF/Oak in June/July
Detroit in Sept

...and anything else we can fit in there.

full moon.

as I prepare to dip North to Bay area on 2/18,
please note the shop will remain open while I'm gone,
but no orders will ship until 2/22.

...enjoy a ton of new items until I get back :)
including those fly Haiti rings.

dreamcatcher ....

happy Tuesday! this week ain't waitin' for no one.


headed up to the Bay this weekend. I've never been on a Cali road trip north of LA -- so I'm HYPE!
almost more excited for the road trip than the actual visit.

being gone for 4 full days means I need to work quadruple time to get through all this:


my incredibly intimidating, super blessed work queue!
God is good :)


i made (and sold!!) these yesterday. aren't they fly?
vintage Tibetan feathers on 24kt gold rimmed druzy.

i'm really feeling druzy right now, as you can see.
its resemblance to the cosmos comforts me in so many ways.





keep out for a few giveaways and sales i'll be running in the next few weeks by joining the mailing list! click the lank :)
