Today we had a Holiday boutique at the home in Redwood City. She has a really pretty home near downtown. And graciously opened up her home to us to have a boutique.
Tina is selling some jewelry items, really beautiful pieces from a line called Sweet Romance. I have always loved their jewelry. A lot of it is so antique looking. It was a very popular line at the store. And she is also selling jewelry that she found on her many trips to New York. Tina is always up on the trends, and she finds jewelry in New York that are like 3 seasons ahead of what is happening here in California. I even remember seeing earrings that were similar to what we had one year on Dancing With the Stars!
Jaquie has a lot of Christmas ornaments and other items that her mother had purchased but never used, so she has all of them out for sale. Lots of really cool Santas, snowmen, and other fun pieces.
Tina also has some Joan Baker pieces that she had from the stores. I just love Joan Baker!
And one of the best parts of today, I was able to reconnect with some old friends from grade school. Michelle, Laura, and Sandy. Michelle (in the blue sweatshirt) and Sandy (in the white coat) used to live a few houses away from my Great Uncle and Aunt in San Mateo. We used to play together a lot when we were little kids (I think before kindergarten). They moved to Foster City when we were in kindergarten. And we went to grade school in Foster City together. Laura, Michelle and I were all in the same grade.I haven't seen Laura since Grade School, and I saw Michelle once or twice since then. So it was really great that Sandy found me on Facebook, and that we all reconnected. Thank goodness for Facebook!!
I hope we'll all keep in touch and keep getting together. It's fun to reconnect with old friends.
