This is manufactured jewelry, not handmade, but I'd like to have places to sell it or at least collect names to do shows or get people to join my team. I was retired for almost 8 years and had several careers in my life, but needed to work part-time as I enjoy meeting new people, and this is a new challenge for me. Previously, I was a middle school teacher, taught ESL to adults, was a court reporter, worked in a dental office and worked as a school administrator. During summers when I was in college, I worked as a sales person at Winkelman's, and I babysat all through high school and college. My husband is retired, and our 2 children are married and we have 5 grandchildren. One of the reasons this is such a great business for me is that I own it, so I'm my own boss! When we want to visit the 3 of our grandchildren who live our of state, I don't have to ask anyone for time off! I also think this jewelry is awesome - something for every woman (and a few pieces for men)!
