Woman Of The Year Awards 2014

I was thrilled to have been shortlisted for a Business Award in The News Woman of The Year 2014 Awards. These were sponsored by Rachel Lowe of She Who Dares. Clint and I put our glad rags on and attended the awards at The Marriot Hotel in Portsmouth.

It was a fantastic experience, extremely inspirational and humbling. I did not win my category but the woman who did had made remarkable achievements and was only 23! I am just at the beginning of my journey and am pleased that I am on the right road. It left me buzzing with a new zest for moving forward and keeping up my determination even when faced with set backs. 

Christina Corp pictured with Rachel Lowe below was the overall winner. What a story! This lady was told she would never walk or speak again yet she is and volunteers helping others with brain injuries. Amazing! 

 All I can say is go with it, hard work and sleepless nights do pay off. If you have family and friends that support you like me then it makes it all that bit easier. Have a great week, Elisa x

Hampshire Open Studios and Festival Break

Hampshire Open Studios is fast approaching! I've been busy behind the scenes contacting local press and listing the event on all the local radio and news websites.
If you have any further suggestions or would like a brochure please contact me.

I have had lots of lovely commission work on the go this week and was sent this photo of the lovely Georgia on her prom night - I custom made both earrings and pendant. Her dress is to die for!!

Yesterday saw a little spot in the local paper The News so I was very pleased about this.

I'm off to recharge by energy attending 2 festivals over the next 2 weekends. Barefoot in Leicester and Wacken in Germany.
Have a fabulous 10 days, Elisa.

Making the Local News!

This week I was pleased to have an article in the local Portsmouth News. Great start and I have had amazing support. Thank you!
