Custom jewelry orders make me happy!

SO I'm sure you've all been on the edges of your seats wondering what's going on with TKO since we moved to PDX ... well ... here's some tidbits:

Hubby is working diligently on a TKO site redesign which will be more dynamic and showcase the latest and greatest stuff from TKO. In addition - this fabulous new site will allow me to easily add new pieces and won't require him doing a complete site overhaul just to add a collection or two. Hopefully ... this will all be done by the holidays ... but with us both working f/t jobs you can't be too sure.

I've been working on some fun custom orders ... and slowly building out new collection pieces (probably will be revealed in the Spring). Looks for fun blues (montana and sapphire) as well as purples and reds. As always -- you can see pics of the stuff I've been playing with on my
flickr page.

My friend Thea ordered a couple of green necklaces from me for Thanksgiving ... as seen here and above I created several options for her. These two were her faves!!

and for Cate -- who has a passion for Orange ...

I'm totally loving the custom stuff ... it's very inspiring and helps me keep my creative juices flowing ... AND I'm using some of the fun and inspirational one-of-a-kind pendants and beads that I've been "hoarding" like they're too valuable to use. What a waste -- truly -- they should be used for jewelry ... to be worn by those I love and adore ... not stored in a bag - in a box - in my living room.

Other than that ... getting ready for the holidays and settling into our new home.

Life is good
