Did you see me in Times Square?

A bit of fabulous news to share with everyone today!  If you've already seen me gushing all over Facebook and Instagram feel free to "move along". ;-)
For those few people in the world who don't already know, two of my hand crocheted scarves were featured on the NASDAQ's billboard in New York City's Times Square this afternoon!

Here's the original photo that I tweeted to Michaels Stores yesterday.

They were asking people to share photos with the hash tag #MadeWithMichaels so I did.  Just a couple of scarf photos and a photo of that cute Cherry cupboard makeover that I did recently.  Well, dang if they didn't tweet me back to ask if they could share it!

 

Little did I know that Michaels Stores was going to be selling their initial public stock offers today at the NASDAQ.  Thus the reason for the big party and celebration in Times Square.  They had a live feed on the NASDAQ billboard from 11 to 3:30 today where they shared the photos.  

Eagle eye that I am, I sat there and watched the live feed on my computer looking for my photos.  Around 12:30 and then 12:40 I was able to grab the screen shots of my scarves.  How cool is this?

Thanks for letting me share even though this has nothing to do with my jewelry blog.  I did share a little over on my VintageCherryShop blog where I sell my scarves here.

Now I can sit back and watch the $$ roll in...wink...wink...

Vintage Cherry Shop

I recently opened up a new shop on Etsy.com that I'm calling "Vintage Cherry Shop". I have a few unique Vintage and Antique pieces of jewelry to share with you. There are some semi precious stone pieces but mostly Rhinestones and Crystal Vintage jewels.

I will confess to being no expert on Vintage Jewelry but I'm always grateful for any information that you might have to share on my pieces. I will happily provide as much information as I can on each.
This is a joint project with my lovely neighbor and friend, Paddy. She is the one who has been the collector of all these amazing Vintage pieces of jewely and I'm the one with the technology skills. We have paired up to create this little ecommerce business to use for what we call our "Tea Money"..lol.
We like to try out new tea rooms around town. The more we sell the more local tea rooms we get to support. Please check out "Vintage Cherry" when you have a few minutes to browse.

I'll be working on posting some more pieces this weekend to the shop. Thanks for taking a look.
