Takin' It Back To The Farm

Picture this: lush green grass, spotted pinto ponies in their corral, rolling hills, a beautiful barn complete with hay bales, new kittens and a retro "airstream" like horse trailer with multi colored 50's metal chairs out front....
Kind of reminds me of summer's as a kid at my great grandparent's farm running down to feed the horses and walk barefoot in the mucky pond hoping to catch frogs or fish! Life was good....life is good!
And that is exactly what you will feel after a trip to Farmstead's new location and 1st ever event at the Farm. Be the first to experience farm hospitality, bbq, music, shopping and nature on May 16th from 9am-4pm.
And did I mention you can help NAWS (Northland Animal Welfare Society) in building their all animal, no kill shelter. Bring your dogs, cats, whatever needs washin', chippin' or just to frolick! A percentage of all ticket sales to be donated as well as a raffle with some awesome stuff and horse rides for the kids! Fun for all ages!
A map to event is available and HIGHLY encouraged...due to TD unable to upload but feel free to email: christi9966@hotmail.com and I'll send one lickety split!

Purple Haze

Amethyst: Hot Gift for February Birthdays, 1st & 6th Anniversaries,Even Valentine’s Day in Customizable Styles By Designer Jane WullbrandtLiberty, MO—Amethyst, February’s birthstone, boasts a color range that complements fashion trends expected to remain strong through at least 2008. Moreover, this popular quartz gem symbolizes sentiments for both the gift giver and wearer that embody our culture’s optimistic desires for brighter times ahead. Atlanta-based designer Jane Wullbrandt offers many ways for gifters to find the perfect gift in customizable styles available at The Polished Edge.From a fashion standpoint, the color purple is no longer considered “trendy,” but rather recognized for its proven staying power. “The entire purple palette—purple, lavender, fuchsia, grape, and dark purple—remains in style,” explains Kevin Weaver of The Polished Edge. “It’s a usable color that has served us well and is hard to let go. Moving forward, deeper shades of purple are evolving like rich orchid and blue-purple. For the spring/summer season a range of purples in graceful, fluid fashions will be important.”Influencing our attraction to vivid, bright colors like purple is our desire to be happy and to celebrate life, a color story that draws from many cultural identities, with vivacious hues like fuchsias and purples contrasted against stark white, bright yellow and green, and dark navy and red. “Amethyst is an ideal gem accessory, particularly when set in designs that are detailed with special surprises, geometric in style, and hand-wrought in look,” describes Kevin. “Embodying this movement are jewels crafted by Jane Wullbrandt. Examples can be found in her hottest ScrollWorks® Collection, inspired by the ribbon-like shapes found in wrought iron gates. Set in rich 18k gold, Jane mixes amethyst with gems like tsavorite garnet in geometric forms in single styles and suites. But the beauty of her work is that any one of her designs can be customized to feature any gemstone. Also, each collection, while unique, works with one another allowing collectors to build distinctive jewelry wardrobes.”In addition to amethyst’s fashion flair, this gem has historically symbolized sincerity and purity in love, and is believed to guard against negativity and encourage good fortune—befitting of our longing for happier days. Not only does amethyst represent February’s birthstone, it is recognized as the ideal gem gift for the first and sixth wedding anniversary. Its love connection also makes it a meaningful gift for Valentine’s Day.

What A Night?!

2008-02-09T13:56:00.000-08:00

Oh, what a night....we packed the house at Cupini's with over 100 women and men present for the FIRST EVER Girl's Night In in downtown Liberty with The Polished Edge Fine Jewelry and Farmstead Lifestyle Boutique. The crab cakes, bruschetta and wine were as fabulous as the jewelry and fashions! From hand tooled cowgirl boots to rhinestone studded steers the fashions were smokin'! And Kelly-firecracker-Littman from Farmstead was on fire as emcee for the fashion show, complete with flashing lights, rockin' music and the launch of the Pandora Club!
Christi and Kevin Weaver started the night off with a fun "Oprah" like door prize hunt under the chairs and our lucky guest, Michelle, won a lovely goodie from one of the best florists, D'Agee's in downtown Liberty. Kevin welcomed the crowd to open their red takeout party favor boxes containing 2 dark chocolate dipped fortune cookies with "special" messages from both Polished Edge and Farmstead. As if the red lip sprinkles weren't enough to festoon the boxes, a signature Pandora Club card was also part of the loot! Guests were welcomed to bring their Pandora Club cards up, fill out a wish list and receive their first stamp toward $55 in Polished Edge Gift Certificates, a Pandora clasp opener (with a $150 purchase) and a quarterly newsletter to keep everyone in the know for the next Girl's Night IN!!!!
