Mother's Day, Celebrity Gifting, Memories

With Mother's Day approaching, I feel my usual melancholy as I remember my amazing and beautiful mother, Mary Elnora Doll.  She was the embodiment of unconditional love, elegance, and grace.  As I pursue my dreams via my jewelry business, she remains a constant source of inspiration! If she were still alive, she would be so excited about my journey with The Artisan Group and celebrity gifting.  Did I mention that she was Hollywood glamorous throughout her life?  She never left the house without looking amazing and put together.  I used to tease her that she put on lipstick to get the mail.  To this day, I hear her ask me "you are wearing THAT?" when I leave the house to run errands looking less than Southern Belle styled.  This is often!

I've been very busy these past few months, getting ready for a great Mother's Day gift bag that The Artisan Group will be giving to the following talked-about celebrities:  Hilary Duff,  Rebecca Gayheart, Keri Russell, Beyonce, Kourtney Kardashian, Lindsay Price, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Jessica Alba, Uma Thurman, Alyson Hannigan, Molly Sims, Sienna Miller, Kristin Cavallari, Jessica Simpson, Bryce Dallas Howard, Evangeline Lilly, Jennifer Garner, Marley Shelton, Sarah Polley, Mrs. Jason Bateman (Amanda Anka), Mrs. Bruce Willis (Emma Heming), Susan Downey, Jr., Lisa Loeb,  Mrs. Kelsey Grammer (Katye Walsh), and Jessica Capshaw. How is that for some serious name dropping?

With a mother's love in mind, I created the Cherished Heart Necklace.  It features a heart nestled within a circle and lovely shades of pink and pearl, with gold and coral undertones.
