So, my husband and I were riding in the car the other day (we ride...the driver drives...trust me, we can't drive here in lagos)...anyways...so we're riding along and I tell my husband that I'm having a jewelry show. He asks me how my pricing is...I say I think its reasonable, but still profitable. Next thing I know...he suggests putting together a database in Microsoft Access to track my costs. Now this would be awesome...except I have to build the thing by scratch...

part of the idea scares me...but the other part thinks it would be really really cool...mainly because the slightly anal retentive part of me loves order and organization...I must have split personalities somewhere in here.

So if anyone knows anything about building your own database in Access...drop me a line...I'll be playing with it...probably for the next year before anything ever comes of it :)

Jewelry show a success!!

Well, the jewelry show was a smashing success. Lots of people, lots of chatting and even some people throwing some money my way. The most exciting thing about it...I get to buy some beads the next time I go shopping!!!!!!! This was a picture of the offerings. For my first show it wasn't too bad. I sold about half my wares. Now I have to get some stuff done for a show before Christmas. I'm so excited!
