I have a new motto – build a site to showcase handcrafted items…….and Jewels by Jan will come.  It seems that every day I hear about yet another web site where makers of handmade items can showcase their products.  Artfire is my latest “find” and because they make it SO easy to list items and set up a shop, they now carry our barefoot sandals.

A change (or is that a chill?) in the air

Do you feel it….that little nip in the air? By far, Autumn is my very favorite season.  By the time it arrives, I’m ready for cooler air and for summer heat to fade away.  Now I can start baking and using the crock pot, take trips up to our cabin in Mt. Laguna and enjoy a [...]

Do you feel it….that little nip in the air? By far, Autumn is my very favorite season.  By the time it arrives, I’m ready for cooler air and for summer heat to fade away.  Now I can start baking and using the crock pot, take trips up to our cabin in Mt. Laguna and enjoy a warm, crackling fire that smells SO good!  In San Diego we welcome the change and I never thought I would say...

WINDY DAYS & WEDDING VEILS

….just don’t go together. Sounds like that should be a song but it’s so true. While outdoor weddings are truly lovely, there’s nothing too pretty about your wedding veil blowing in your face. And it’s bad enough that this could happen as you say your vows, it can also happen during the picture-taking session.

Now there’s a solution to having to hold down your veil and it’s called Veil Weights. Created by Southern California Wedding Planner, Jill Watson, these beautiful pieces of magnetic jewelry can be easily attached to a bride's veil, thus keeping those veils where they were meant to be. After coordinating many weddings where windy conditions caused her brides' veil to blow here and there, disrupting the ceremony and videos, Jill decided they would be just the solution to a frequent situation at beach weddings. Jill notes that a veil will still have movement but they will keep it from blowing out of control.

The weights come in a package of 6 in four styles - Swarovski crystal in an oval or round shape or Mother of Pearl in oval or round shapes. Since they are magnetic they attach easily to the bottom of a veil. Instructions come with every set and after the wedding you can use them as magnets to hang up your beautiful wedding photos.

Jewels by Jan is excited to offer Jill's veil weights at $59.95 for a set of 6. Be prepared for the unpredictable ocean breezes and and keep in mind that anywhere the wind blows - at the beach, on an island or even in wine country, veil weights will keep veils under control.
