A very happy new year to everyone! I hope 2011 has been good to you as it has been to me. I wish you all the best in 2012.

My new year resolution for this year would be to not make any because I never seem to follow through. My theory is, if I don’t make any, I’ll tend to do what I make impromptu. Makes sense, no?

Do you have new year resolutions for 2012?

Mid-Year Sale – 25% Off Storewide is a post from: Sweet Contemplation Accessories™

Hi lovelies,

It’s been a rough couple of months for me healthwise, but I’m just so excited to show you our new collection of necklaces, bracelets and earrings that burning the midnight oil for weeks was completely worth it. And just in time for Mother’s Day too! (For my Australian customers, that’s May 8. Hint hint )

I don’t know about you, but my favourite season of all would have to be autumn. When the leaves turn to a rich red to golden brown, it reminds me that the old is about to go, but the new is just around the corner. What a beautiful sight to behold.

This time, I’m bringing in a lot of bold earthy colours. Gold, red, brown, bronze, brass, the works.

Here’s a sneak peek of our new autumn collection:

This is just a portion of the new collection. Do check out the website for the whole collection.

Enjoy!

We’ll be closed 21 January to 20 February for our annual break. It’s been an amazing 2010, even with working through the holidays. I reckon it’s time for a well-deserved holiday, no?

Lots of eating, shopping, and most importantly, catching up with family and friends. I simply cannot wait!

So, any orders placed during the holiday break will only be processed and shipped after 20 February.

Till then, have a great new year!

Happy new year!

Time sure flew by quickly, didn’t it? Seemed like just yesterday when I started Sweet Contemplation Accessories, and now it’s been a whole year!

I’m so thankful for so many things. For my family and friends who supported me in this adventure, something I never thought I would be brave enough to do, and now that I did, I never looked back. Call it a cliche, but I’d call it my, well, calling. I’m thankful to all my wonderful customers who made this possible, who gave me the drive to design more pieces. I’m thankful to my husband, Tim, who never once discouraged me, but helped me in every way he could.

So, what’s for 2011? For one, I hope to expand my designs to beadweaving. I’ve been working on it for a while now, and hope to launch them after the Chinese lunar new year. Improving my jewellery-making skills is my daily challenge, and one that I simply love doing. I also hope to update this blog more often, with articles on beautiful pieces of jewellery I stumbled upon, tips on caring for your jewellery, etc.

You know what they say. Find something you love to do, and you’ll never have to work a day in your life. I couldn’t agree more.

Have a great year ahead!

xx,
Christine

In conjunction with the month-long event, other than making sure you lovely ladies get a gentle reminder to do your breast self examination (please do not just make it once a year, but have monthly self checks, okay?), I’ve created something simple but beautiful pink Swarovski crystal necklace to wear throughout the month to show my support for the awareness. And now, it can be yours too for only $30. It’s only available for sale in October 2010, and is a limited edition piece.

Best part is, ALL the proceeds of the necklace, 100% of them, will go to the National Breast Cancer Foundation in aid of research, early detection and finding a cure for breast cancer. Not 10 cents, not $2, but every cent of every sale will go towards the foundation. Now that’s a cause worth supporting, no?

At long last, spring is upon us. And about time too, I’m tired of the cold. I simply cannot wait for days of spring dresses, espadrilles, hats and of course, new accessories!

I’m bringing nature back in the spring collection. Flowers, leaves and semi-precious gemstones to name a few. With that, I’ve also added a bit of edge to some of the pieces, introducing chains with beads, mixing silver with gold and brass, etc. Accessories have to be chic yet fun, no?

Here’s a sneak peek of our new spring collection:

Enjoy!
