It's summer time!!


Hello to all my summer frolicking friends!!

I love summer, which is kinda silly to say in San Diego, but it does get hotter!!  Also, fun summer events are as prevalent as missing teeth in my daughter's head.  (ha ha!)  Today is my sweet hubby's B-day, so Happy Birthday, honey!!  45 is just a number (a high number, but who am I to say....;)

Along with summer comes lots of artsy type events, some of which I am going to take part in!  Yea!  Officially on the calendar right now for Wire Harmony are the following:

Summer Sunset ArtWalk at Rancho Bernardo Winery, 
Friday July 26th, 4-8 p.m.

ALL handmade crafts and jewelry while you sip a glass or two of vino, eat some tasty food, listen to music...
Come and bring a friend.  This is a weekly event during summer months.

R.B. Winery Sunset ArtWalk


North Park Craft Mafia Juried Show
August 4, exact time and location (North Park) TBD, (10 am-5pm-ish)
Yes, I made it in this time!! Yipee!!  More info to come!
 
Private Party
My lovely friend, Arika, is also hostessing a party for me at the end of July, which is quite awesome.  In exchange, she gets free jewelry!! (And my undying devotion forever, ha ha.)
If anyone else would like to hostess a low-key party and get free jewelry (or cash!), drop me a line.

Also newsworthy...

I donated a Celtic necklace and bracelet to a local fundraiser for OMO Child.  Its is a truly amazing story.  An African boy from the Omo Valley in Ethiopia gets educated and comes back to his tribe years later to end the tradition of killing "Mingi" children, those who are "cursed".  He has saved 37 children from this fate and has taken on housing, feeding and educating them, along with the help of a National Geographic photographer who lives in Scripps Ranch.  I got to meet them both...inspiring people to say the least.

Please check out the web site...this story will blow you away!!!


**I am currently taking a break from the Scripps Ranch Farmer's Market.  I am looking to other opportunities in La Jolla and Encinitas...stay tuned! **

Now, for the updated gallery photos.  Happy summer to all.
