BIG snow, My LITTLE Business

 The weather reports and warnings are scary.  Thank goodness the storm for us starts late this afternoon.  Hopefully most people will already be home. We are very close to the line between ice and snow. You know I love snow but not ice.  I don't want to loose power.  It's a mess when that happens.  It's not an easy fix either, it can take days even a week.  If you can get out and get somewhere warm then it's not too bad.  We don't have back up heat or a generator.  But we have a neighbor that does.......also two sons with small generators if we could get to them.  I worry a lot about our dogs in an outage.  You can't just show up at someone's house with your pets.  Esp. when they are allergic.  Oh well, praying the power stays on for all of us.

OKAY, my little business.  I signed up to sell Origami Owl in the fall.  I had been seeing things online about the company and had already looked into joining up when a friend had a party.  My friend and I both signed up.  We did it on a whim just because we loved the product that they offer.  I love the whole idea.  You pick a locket then you begin to tell your story.  You pick the charms that go inside and dangles to hang next to your locket.  Oh, yes, there are chains to choose from.  So many options for you to choose.  I have so much fun with this.  I haven't made any money because I bought so much for Christmas.   I'd like to break even eventually.  If you haven't seen or heard about Origami Owl you can go to Debby Messner.OrigamiOwl.com and check out all the goodies. (OH, IT'S REALLY IIMPORTANT THAT YOU DO THAT DOT)  If you'd like to order you can do that as well.  I like giving gifts to those that order,, hint hint.
The lockets are hard to photograph, for me anyway.  Let me tell you some of the combinations that I like.  I change of my lockets often.  Sometimes just but changing lockets on the same chain or going to a different chain and locket.  So here are my favorites so far.

My winter locket charms:
4 beautiful blue birthday stones
ice skate
coffee /coccoa mug
snowglobe (no longer available)
snowflake
an owl with a blue stone (gotta have an owl)

My favorite football team locket charms:

Crystal letters:  O  S  U
a football (we have all kinds of sport charms)
red heart
colored stones

Wizard of OZ charms:

house
princess crown
letters OZ
heart
little dog
different colored accent stones

Can you just see all the combinations.  Lots of themes.  Maybe just some things that mean a lot to you.

When I went on my cruise I made one with these charms:

a suitcase
palm tree
a Dream plate ( because I was on the Disney Dream)
birthday cake (since it was my birthday)
camera

So if you are thinking of a great gift for yourself or someone you love check us out.  No pressure.

OH.  AND IF YOU ARE STILL READING.....I AM GIVING AWAY A FREE LOCKET OF YOUR CHOICE.  JUST COMMENT.  You need to be a follower, only fair, since you are the ones that put up with me on a daily basis.
Hey, we even have chocolate lockets and chains.
