I'd like to begin by sharing a story about a recipient of a Love Necklace.
Read MoreI want to thank everyone who is a part of The Love Necklace Community. There is a woman who is healing from domestic abuse who is wearing the Love Necklace that was gifted to her through the purchase of a Love Necklace. I wish you could have been there when she received it so you could have seen how grateful she was... how much she smiled.

Last week, I had the opportunity to present my work at the Vignette Art Fair as a vocationist.
