I’ve been back in the States for a couple of weeks now. The JetLag was brutal and the Melatonin did not help much. It really took that long to get back to normal - at first I was up at 3 am and then got maybe 1/2 an hour of extra sleep a night and now I’m back to Normal. I have been out of the states for so long, so I guess it makes sense. Later this week I’ll add pictures from my time away in Israel, Spain, Portugal and France with some stories. Maybe I’ll do one blog posting per country. Yeah - now that’s a good idea :o)

Working on updating the website with the new 2008 collections - there are actually two new jewelry collections! One that I did for LA fashion week that was really more Haute Couture, and it’s higher price point. Lots of Labradorite and Garnet and very large dramatic pieces. Well- that’s what they asked for - “big and bold” :o)

Another collection that I did in Israel was the ready to wear style casual jewelry that one could wear to the office etc. Much more accessible jewelry price wise as well - so stay tuned!

It’s a lot of work. I get all the jewelry descriptions and stuff done in Excel and I need to choose names for the jewelry pieces, which is an interesting process actually. I name my jewelry after goddesses so I need to make sure the goddess fits the piece and feels right :o) and then write a short description etc.

I have to get it done this week. Promise, if you don’t see the updates by the end of the week and feel free to e-mail me - “Keren where is it?! You promised”.

That’s it for now. Accountability is the name of the game, and visibility equals accountability although some people higher up tend to forget about that. But not us.
