Nestled in a small urban setting just outside of Chicago, IL, I live with my beautiful family consisting of an amazing husband and two darling children – a boy and a girl. These people are my life and without them or God I’d have a really drab and meaningless life. I’m blessed in all areas of my life – spritually, personally, physically, financially, emotionally (although I have my moments, just ask my husband!).
Having a small business that takes me out of my home, where I can interact with friends, new and potential customers, where I can visit new places, has only deepened my business sense, relationships, and a sense of worth (outside my family life). I hope that you will learn more about me as you visit the blog and provide me with your feedback about well anything, but hopefully about the jewelry I make and the apparel I sell. I look forward to an ongoing relationship with those who visit!

Hi Lori,
I am trying to pay you for a dress I bought at the Wheaton market. I sent a check to “801 N. Cuyler, Oak Park, IL 60302, and it was returned. Please advise.
Thanks,
Martha Bunch
