They then relocated to Florida in 1995 and have been doing shows here ever since. They have won 1st place awards at All Children's Hospital Guild here in St. Petersburg; the Panama City Woman's Art Show and the Art in the Park show in Orlando. Third place was won at Lake Eola and a design was selected by the Renwick Gallery of the Smithsonian.
They have dramatically increased their line of jewelry to include classic and contemporary designs that will please just about everyone who stops at their booth. They continue to treat their customers as friends while still maintaining the professionalism that is necessary to bring such creative and wearable designs to you. |
