I love that double strand bracelet, the double strand necklace, and the earrings are fabulous!! Enough exclamation points? No.<br /><br />Third, I am looking forward to this new venture. I love jewelry, even though I don't wear any. I love to buy it and one day, when I don't have little fingers grabbing and pulling on it, I will wear it again. :)Brianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06082925249389424811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3254319823561079416.post-63603523162028893462011-02-03T20:29:55.465-08:002011-02-03T20:29:55.465-08:00Shea (comment #3) was our winner!

I'm amazed at the talent! <br />I think you remember which ones I liked best, the bracelets with peace in Burmese and the little red one with the gold ring. :) <br />So proud of you and all that you are doing to help these women!Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15014773790511772539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3254319823561079416.post-58894207848538612402011-01-29T14:40:20.817-08:002011-01-29T14:40:20.817-08:00Basically, I would wear all of that jewelry.

I LOVE the idea of incorporating the Burmese word for "peace" into the jewelry. I wonder if it would be cute to burn each letter on a separate small bead--then you could do all kinds of things with it (alternate beads with plain beads of different colors, put them all together like the double brown bracelet shown here, etc.). Plus, you wouldn't have to whittle--you could just use an existing bead!<br /><br />I posted on FB.jocelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07297153326314366962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3254319823561079416.post-62535125404879961912011-01-29T13:23:22.384-08:002011-01-29T13:23:22.384-08:00I love those earrings.

I agree with Rachel - this makes it unique. Anything they can incorporate from home - materials, colors, etc - tells their story.

I also LOVE the idea of a bracelet made from acorns... Kyle may be able to help you with figuring that out. He and the kids make stuff with acorns all the time. :)Martahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14858561910752413029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3254319823561079416.post-90368761488209658532011-01-27T20:36:58.462-08:002011-01-27T20:36:58.462-08:00I shared on facebook!

I love having the story behind the artist and the piece that they made. It reminds me to pray for them when I wear their piece and share their story when I get a compliment on the piece I am wearing.<br /><br />I also like when they are made from simple materials. I think it shows off the creativity of the artists.Aprilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04252678185030096525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3254319823561079416.post-72751566418720231382011-01-27T19:12:55.079-08:002011-01-27T19:12:55.079-08:00LOVE the earrings and the last bracelet with peace...LOVE the earrings and the last bracelet with peace on it.

I just posted on Facebook.<br /><br />I think my favorite is the necklace that combines cloth covered beads with regular beads. The contrast in colors and fabrics is beautiful and I love that it incorporates their traditional weaving. All the products are great! As for using acorns...great idea, but I'll warn you those things are hard as a rock! I'll keep thinking of something else they could use.Kim P.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02846241496160141528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3254319823561079416.post-65846901596597953712011-01-26T14:13:28.138-08:002011-01-26T14:13:28.138-08:00Posted on TwitterPosted on TwitterSheahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14764889193260761627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3254319823561079416.post-82599060300711104912011-01-26T14:13:08.684-08:002011-01-26T14:13:08.684-08:00Posted on FacebookPosted on FacebookSheahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14764889193260761627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3254319823561079416.post-24001213676907043532011-01-26T13:56:38.186-08:002011-01-26T13:56:38.186-08:00Really Love the necklaces (and earrings..even thou...Really Love the necklaces (and earrings..even though my ears aren't pierced). My only suggestion would be to provide more opportunity for purchases to be made-- ie. trunk shows? OR will this jewelry be available at 10,000 Villages? I will say the app you used at Artreach this year (allowing purchases to be made with debit cards--- was genius and allowed me to pick up extra items, I wouldn't have been able to if you had run a cash only sale). So if you decide to do trunk shows, definitely keep that as an option.<br /><br />contact Jessica at Noonday Collections (or other locals selling jewelry)Sheahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14764889193260761627noreply@blogger.com
