NOTE TO SELF about posts...

Take your husband's name off your circulation list if you don't want him to know all of your secrets!
DAIAD (Damn Am I A Dummy!)

My Husband knows what I like! (And I like it like that!)

So I don't know about you ladies out there, 
but my husband has GREAT taste, 
especially when I get to pick out the present.

 In today's issue of the Dallas Morning News, the "Local Talent" section, there was and article on one of my favorite jewelry artists here in Dallas and that she was showing her work at the store IOTA. 
Her name is Kimberley Morris and she is FABULOUS! 

My husband Greg purchased this necklace (wait...let me be honest...I purchased it for me - from my husband for his gift to me for our anniversary...and I can tell you I have LOVED it every day since then!) about 3 years ago. 


Kimberley told me at the time, she was starting with this new technique - Prisma Color pencils on Copper (of course there is more to it than that,  but that's her secret!). She appeals to my Graphic Designer heart, and whenever I wear this piece, which is often, I receive so many compliments. And I follow it up by mentioning her name. But now I am finally getting around to putting her name out there so all of you can take a peek at her fun and colorful work of art! 

Here is a link to her shop on Etsy.

Her site is beautiful also!

And if you are in Dallas, please stop by one of the most enjoyable shops in town, IOTA over off of Knox.
I know the parking stinks over there...but it is worth the stop. http://www.iotadallas.com/
this is one of my other cute finds in there...Yes!~ I do use pencils!


And if you are wondering what my husband is getting me this year for my anniversary...it might look something like this...but don't tell him yet...come October I want it to be a surprise for him, from me - for me! (You're following that train of thought/purchase-logistics right?)
