Prelude in the Park event TONIGHT!

Hi all! Tonight I will be at Mission Viejo's Prelude in the Park event. Pop Culture Princess will have a booth there, and I have new items for sale! Great earrings with turquoise and other vintage beads, awesome bracelets that are really "bling" and more!

The festivities start at 4pm, and are being held at the Norman P. Murray Center Community and Senior Center on the Village Green/Oso Viejo Park (which is just in front of the community center), 24932 Veterans Way, Mission Viejo, CA, 92692.

Inspiration

When does creativity "hit" you?

Creativity always hits me in one of two places: when I'm trying to fall asleep, or in the shower.

Take last night for instance...I was trying to fall asleep but couldn't because I kept getting design ideas in my head. A couple of days ago I tweaked my Etsy shop a little to better reflect "Pop Culture Princess" with new categories like Romance and Red Carpet. Well, for some reason, changing it up a little bit made me think of more ideas that fit the categories. I've been working all day on some Red Carpet bracelets that I think are going to be just gorgeous - all thanks to my not being able to get to sleep last night.

I haven't had any ideas in the shower lately though, hmmmm...need to make that happen!

Here's hoping you have a creative weekend!

Summertime

Finally, summer is here in the Los Angeles area! It's been all "June Gloom" all the time since oh, May or so. Today it is 91 degrees here at my house, am hoping to finally have some warm nights to go frolic in without having to wear a jacket or sweater!

In the meantime, Pop Culture Princess got its first press! Thank you to Nikki - muah! You can check it out at http://www.bitememf.com/2010/07/ecco-friendly-jewelry.html. Tell your friends!

I have been making some super cute earrings - no photos as of yet though. There are new listings on my Etsy store at http://www.etsy.com/shop/popcultureprincess...very fun goodies to wear with your lightweight summer clothes! All the pieces are light as a feather, but give great shine and pizazz to you! And of course, they are made from recycled and upcycled items, so it's good for the environment as well.

I am off to go take some photos - have a great day!
