Hey, look what's growing in the pumpkin patch!

Here's a quick peek at my newest ornament for the Fall.


It's a sterling silver glittered pear bedecked
with gorgeous aqua Midori double-faced satin.
This beauty will really pop off your tree 
and will shine so beautifully amidst the twinkling lights. 
I'm using my newest, absolutely amazing glitter, 
which actually contains sterling silver 
yet won't tarnish over time.
I know you'll love it!


Much, much more to come...the glitter is flying around here!

p.s.  If you get over to Southampton, 
check out The Elegant Setting, a wonderful shop on Main Street 
who still has some of my glittery ornaments for sale!  
Tell Stephanie The GlitterFairy sent you!

A wonderful time was had by all...

We had such fun on Saturday at our Trunk Show 

at The Elegant Setting in Southampton.

The shop is gorgeous and is filled with the most wonderful things, 

from exquisite china & crystal & linens

to velvet pencils and monogrammed notepads.

I was thrilled to be at the front of the house 

to greet everyone with a glittery smile.

And speaking of smiles, the owner, Stephanie, 

couldn't have been more welcoming to us 

and introduced us to all her wonderful clients.

Stephanie is a master at finding the perfect gift 

for her discerning clients.

Kate's bags from Sharp Hill Designs absolutely lit up the shop.

Kate and I stopped for a quick photo op...

Glitter, glitter, everywhere!

It was a perfect shop, perfect customers, 

a perfect day...

Thanks, Stephanie!

p.s. I'm pleased to tell you that Stephanie will be featuring 

my silver glittered fruit ornaments and perching glitterdoves 

in her holiday windows this year.  

What an honor!  

It will be exquisite...

I savored the evening...

Last night, I attended a wonderful Savor the Success event in NYC, 

hosted by founders Angela Jia Kim (pictured above) 

and co-founder and husband, Mark.  

There were approximately 60 amazing women 

enjoying dinner and networking, 

while enjoying the view from 32 stories up! 

I made some new entrepreneurial friends 

and our speaker, 

Betty Newman, 

shared tips on 

how to package our products 

when pitching to editors and the media.

  

I adore NYC and especially enjoyed the ride in with dear friends, 

Jane Pollak and Kate Woodman, 

and the ride home with the aforementioned 

and two new friends, Robin and Nancy.

Lively conversation added to an already terrific evening!

Savor the Success is a dynamic organization full of 

accomplished entrepreneurial women 

and provides priceless information and support.

I'm so glad to have STS in my toolbox!

It's back to the glitter mines for me today, however...

(I'm working on some gorgeous sea critters, 

frames and glittered beachy notecards 

for Saturday's Southampton 

glitter extravaganza...)

Gone to the dogs...er...cats...

Had the most fun working last week 
on a simple project 

for NewsChannel 12's 
Pet Talk with Lauren Collier.  

The segment will be airing 
this weekend at multiple times.

Here is my sweet Teddy, 

modeling a glittery cheetah number!  

You really can't see the glitter much in this picture, but I highlighted 

each spot with a dash of chocolate 

brown glitter for a bit of sparkle.

As you can see, Teddy was not pleased.

(He doesn't wear clothes...)

Cleo was a bit more patient, 
but rather grumpy 

in her lovely pink camo bandana 

highlighted with 
a touch of pink glitter. 

(Cleo does grumpy soooo well.) 

And my dear BabyCat 
cooperated quite nicely 

with my photographic insanity.  

She is my supermodel...

(I may have to start paying her...)

Fortunately, I found some willing 
canine models, Lilly and Bonnie,

and their sweet mom, Pam.

Lilly and Pam are sporting 
the lovely "Mother & Daughter" 

glittered black & white 
zebra print, with just a touch 

of silver glitter.  

Pam cleverly twisted her bandana 
into a nifty headband.

Quite fetching don't ya think?

Of course, what Lilly really wanted 
to do was 
roll and roll and roll....

What fun we all had...

Try to catch the show this weekend.

See my Sea-critters in their new home!

My new buddy, Kate Sargent, 
of Sassy Smox 

recently ordered some of 
my glittery sea critters 
and was kind enough to share this wonderful picture of how she used 

them on a wreath 
for her beach house. 
You can read her 4/21/10 blog post 
here.
(FYI - Kate makes the most 
wonderful & sassy aprons.  
You MUST check out her 
blog and website!)

  The lobbies, crabs, 
seahorses and sand dollars 
were painted white, 

then covered in 
a sheer transparent glitter 

with a bit of a blue sheen.  

Don't they look great?  

Now I need to make a wreath 
full of glitter critters 

so I can feel like 
I'm at the beach, too!

All my glittery best,

A perfect Spring day in Central Park...

New York never ceases to amaze me, 

and Central Park was absolutely 

b-u-r-s-t-i-n-g 

with color this week!

This tree was incredibly billowy 

and voluptuous.

The tulips were perfection...

This maple was positively glowing green.  

(I love it when the leaves are newborn..)

My favorite color...fuscia. 

Isn't nature amazing?

And isn't this combo of narcissus, red tulips and fern just delicious?

I've already made a whole bunch 

of these images 

into a new card line, 

Spring in Central Park Collection.

The crowning event was tonight, however, when my sweet hubby brought in 

the most intoxicating 

bunch of lilacs from the garden.  

I was/am completely knocked out!

Hope you have a chance to get outside in your own neighborhood and take in nature's gift.
