We’ve come a long way since Brian first found this truck on Craigslist. He envisioned a rolling shop for me to get my jewelry out of the basement and onto the street. I wasn’t so sure at first, but then we got the truck, went for a ride and I was completely on-board! Now after a few weeks of fix-up and painting it’s ready to roll!
Truck Shop is finally open! It is a way for me to get my jewelry out there and seen and (hopefully) purchased. So far I’ve had some success in sales, and people are intrigued by the truck and the concept— so much so that we now offer pop-up truck and food truck design—see hudsondesign.us if you are interested. And, if you find yourself in Hudson on a weekend, please stop by and say hello!
I’m excited to announce that Ruth Beattie now has a virtual storefront on OpenSky, a cool new online marketplace for artisans.

AC: I’m also working on a holiday card that follows the 12 days of Christmas – keys style. This year is 4 parrotfish.
RB: What did you do for the other years?
AC: 3 Key West hens, 2 manatees, and a pelican in a palm tree.

Finally getting my blog in place. It’s been a while. The rest of the site has been up since spring 2013, and here it is December 15, 2013 already. Better late than never. Here, I plan to share some photos of my jewelry, some jewelry “how tos”, random thoughts, and links to some sites I find of interest. Stay tuned. Thanks!
thoughts and ideas on jewelry design, etc.
