Icy Photo Exercise

As everyone has noticed over the last few weeks, this is a really cold winter! While hunkering down during the Polar Vortex, I took some of these photos of the ice inside our windows.
Enjoy!

January Market in Atlanta

It's a rainy day here in Atlanta, and there are flash flood warnings until 3 pm. Luckily, I'm in the AtlantaMart, staying warm and dry, and selling Freshie and Zero to retailers from around the country.
My boss, Beth Lawrence, is a great jewelry designer, an awesome employer, and has an incredible eye for design. One of the skills she really wows people with - both clients and fellow sellers - is her ability to make a creative, cohesive,  and easily navigable display. Working with Beth has made me realize how much more goes on behind the scenes when running a business than the average consumer may realize.
Below are a few photos of the newly redesigned display for this market. Enjoy, and stay inspired!


Full booth shot. It's so airy, and the punches of color are perfect.
