 Subject: Hi gals- I'm new here!
Message:
Hi all! Deb tells me you ladies are a lot of fun & I am SOOOOO excited about being in the Round Robin! Yay! My name is Tina & I live in Crystal Lake, IL, near Chicago. I have been a UA flight attendant for 16 years, but am now on a medical leave and going to give my hand-made jewelry business a shot. I'm married, have an 11-year-old DD & I LOVE beauty talk!!! (I actually once dreamed of being a pro MU artist, but ended up in the 'sky' instead.) Looking forward to getting to know each of you! ;-) Sky

Tina - welcome. You will like it here. My hubby saw me gathering up some stuff when I got home from work for the box, he got this look on his face. I said don't worry dear, just making some free shelf space. I thought he would pee his pants he laughed so hard.

Hi Tina,
You are so very welcome here, and we are glad you are joining our little Beauty Box venture. More is indeed merrier!
Oh dear Deb, don't give the poor dear a heart attack! I am bringing all sorts of other little goodies to go in the box so it will start off pretty well stocked, I hope. I love White Rain products so I am sending some of that. Plus several other hair cair products too. Going to feed the better half now and take a sleeping pill since we are leaving here at 5:30am! That is the time I usually make my way into the bed! OH DEAR!
See you for coffee Deb.....Gosh I am hyped for this!

hi tina,
wonderful to have you on board! what type of jewelry do you make? my husband has been a pilot for delta for 17 years, so we've both flown the friendly skies, he much, much more than i! i wouldn't know what to do with a positive space seat!! it's been an adventure at times.
these are some real ladies here. we seem to have all found a common thread-our nails-and built so many more common interests around it.

Hi Tina!!!! It's so nice to have another friendly face on the boards. How did you 'meet' deb? Are you a Q poster? Since you'll have the box before me, be sure you put some good stuff in there ;) I'm already going through my things, pulling out samples, etc., to include with the box when it comes my way. Now, I have a ???. I get free things from the market sometimes. Vitamins, all kinds of stuff like that. Cat treats, dog treats, etc. Those all add up to a llot of weight so I won't throw those in, but what about the things like vitamins? Should I yes, or should I no, include those?

I like the idea of the flat-rate Priority Mail box. Vitamins are okay with me. I guess we should figure out a way, though, to monitor the freshness of the contents of the box. Maybe we could all just check things out each time & toss whatever looks 'funky'.
As for my jewelry, I have been making all kinds of beaded stuff for 11 years, started adding some wire-working to some of the pieces about 4 years ago, and now am just getting started with a full-on silversmithing shop. DH set me up in my own lil corner of the basement with a fabulous workbench (recycled- it was in our 1867 Victorian when we bought it!) I have tools, a torch, etc.
I will be teaching myself to solder & work silver, bronze & brass. I would love to work in gold one day when I can afford to... My stuff is a little eclectic & Bohemian so far. It's not your QVC-type stuff! I'll bet one day all of us gals will meet, & when we get together, I will bring some goodies for Show & Tell, okay? Till then, I'll let you know when I get my butt in gear to get a website up & running. (I'm kinda low-tech!)
Anyway, thanks for the warm welcome- can't wait to see the 'box'! Sky (Tina)

Yes Moi,I don't mind if you want to throw in vitamins.
OT here but when my hubby turned 60 I made him up a bag of old folks goodies:
corn pads
mylanta
geratol (sp?)
and of course some centrum silver vitamins, plus everything I could find that had to do with geriatrics!
He really fell out on that one.
Social Security is a good thing! {right?}

Sky,
We write websites, just FYI
http://www.redwheeler.com
We wrote this site too. We are about to begin upgrading the look and I am going to add a page at the prompting of Lynnie, "POST ACRYLIC RECOVERY"
Right now we are in the middle of writing 2 new sites so things are hopping around here!
Send me some pics of your jewelry if you can. That would be interesting. You can always throw in a dozen bracelets for us to share. We could wear them for a month, show them off, recommend them to everyone that asks, give them your information, then put the bracelets back in the box and pick a new one next time round! LOLOLOL! Sounds good to me!

Welcome aboard, Tina! Please, fasten your seatbelt. Hahaha I would love to see your jewelry! I love eclectic jewelry and always hit up the arts shows. If you haven't got time for a website now, you should upload some photos into albums somewhere like Photobucket, Ofoto or Yahoo. A girlfriend of mine started doing this about 5 years ago and loves it. She's also branched off in to wire work and glass.
Barb - I'm so flattered you want to use that idea! You know there are many of us here that can give you fodder for that page!
