Valentine, you're on my mind...

Goodness, where did Christmas, New Years, and January go? Here we are with Valentine's Day right around the corner. I have added some new pieces that I think should make for some easy *cough* husband shopping if certain people let him know. wink wink. :) I love Valentine's Day because it's nice to feel loved and give love in return. I wonder who St.Valentine was anyway? Something to google later in all my free time. I have tons...

I've already added the new Valentine and just the new stuff to the website, so hang a right and check it out. Click on Ellenay Designs first. They will be under the left hand tabs of Divine Designs & Vintage. Here's a sneak peek at a few...

Yep, it's time...Day 1

I know this is my blog about my jewelry, but I wanted to let you know about something cool I'm doing on my other blog, Through the Vintage Garden, I'm doing a daily post update on my progress. If you want to join for free, Ivillage is doing a 6 week weight loss program starting today through Valentines Day. Leslie Sansone hosts this, and I love her. I have tons of her dvd's and they really do work for anybody. All I have to do is be consistent, so that's the plan. If I post my progress daily, it'll help me stay on track. I hope! Come on with me and post your results too! It'll be fun. Go here to check it out.

P.s. This dvd pictured is one of my favorite workouts. It's a different one each day and even comes with a menu for the week. I'm starting with this one.

Hugs!

Happy New Year!!!

The end of the year is always a little sad as I reminsce over time passing by. I always get sentimental thinking about all the changes that ocuur from one year to the next. It's a part of my personality, I guess. I love the holidays, and being with family, and it's always sad to go back to life in our routines. Taking down the tree, turning off the Christmas music, all make me melancholy. Not to be a total downer, there is a lot I like about it. For example, I love making lists, and this always inspires me to make my New Year's Resolutions. I have, oh-so-many this year! It's good though because I'm super excited.I feel a new chapter, a new beginning, a clean slate, with a new year. What are some of your resolutions? My top 3 are: Read my Bible more, lose weight & get better organized. These are my personal goals, not family or business. I have many categories! Anyway, I just wanted to say thank you to all my customers and friends for another great year. I really love what I do and I'm so extremely grateful for all the encouragement and support. I hope you all have a wonderful and blessed 2011!

Love & hugs,
Lori

Bah-bling!

This necklace, "Le Reine" is made from a vintage crown broche. The dangle charm is a vintage styled swarovski drop with crystals and vintage pearls. I used black lace for the necklace. It can be tied at the neck as a choker, or left long. It's a one-of-a-kind piece. {Reg.$55.00} On sale today only for $42.50.

p.s. Ships gift-wrapped in a keepsake box.

We have a winner!

Today's last vingo word is ....."Coconut"....Mary: "But, I don't like coconut." George: "Say brainless, don't you know where coconut comes from?? Tahiti & the coral sea.." This is where she leans down and whispers in the ear he can't hear from that she'll love him til the day she dies. I love that part.

Ok, this means we have a winner! You need to check your words, and the person who won needs to yell Vingo! (I know who it is) :)

Thanks so much for playing Vingo everybody! It's always fun for me. I hope you've had fun too.
I'll have another sale today too coming up shortly.

Merry Christmas!!
