BREAKING NEWS-
Owner and creator debbi grogan tells the story:
"A neighbor called me yesterday and said some friends were coming to visit and would I mind opening the shop for them to take a look. I said "sure but I'm working on my blog, so I'll run out turn on the heat and lights... so blow the horn when you come in the driveway." I thought "oh they'll probably never buy anything."
Well, 4 lovely ladies get out of their car and follow me into the shop. They looked and looked. I demonstrated the shrugs and the capes, the swirl scarves and no go. One lady was looking at the jewelry and told me she also made jewelry. So I thought to myself - "what the heck- she's not going to buy anything." As they were getting ready to leave, the jewelry maker lady exclaimed "Well of course I like the most expensive thing in the shop."
I replied, "What's that?"
She said "that pearl necklace" - pointing to the white one. So I said "try it on for fun."
I took it off the display neck and put it on her. It came alive- it glowed as soon as it touched her skin. Then she said - "what about that other one?" Pointing to the multi-colored piece. I quickly replaced the white necklace with the multi-colored one and all the ladies just raved. "That's beautiful!" "Look at that." "WOW, what an unusual piece."
I'm thinking this is all just for fun, one jewelry maker to another--and then she said "okay I'll take this one." We then matched up a pair of earrings. She turned to her girlfriend and said -"This is all your fault!"
I said "...but aren't you happy?"
She said "VERY!"
