My grand- mother was a fabric designer who also designed and made wedding gowns at night to supplement the family income. My grandfather was a master jeweler and taught me the art of jewelry making. When I became an adult, this background in jewelry making encouraged me to do research on how to start and market a home-based business. I learned how to take high-resolution (high-res) images of jewelry, and how to write a press release and compelling copy about my pieces. Researching the history of jewelry, gemstones, and the life of jewelry designers was also very helpful. I became an expert on the various ethnic and ritual uses of jewelry. Along the way I taught myself HTML code and got up to speed with Google Ad Sense and Ad Words, created a few different Web sites, including e-Commerce, and monetized with advertising. Once I felt my jewelry making skills were sufficient, I started entering juried schools, and moved from retail to wholesale marketing of my jewelry. My home-based jewelry making goals haven’t completely come to frui- tion—yet. Along with many other goals, I would like to gain acceptance into the juried Smithsonian Craft Show. I feel a good business is always a work in progress. I went down a very meandering path with my jewelry making business. I had plenty of roadblocks thrown in my way, both self-created and beyond my control. The information contained in this book is the result of my years of creative and technical experience operating a home-based jewelry making business, including the practical business side, such as paying taxes and writ- ing a business plan. Whether you want to run your business part-time to make HTS_Jewelry Making Bus Final.indd 9 5/4/09 2:04:40 PM some extra money, or quit your day job to make jewelry full-time, this book contains all the information you need to start and operate a successful home-based jewelry making business. x Introduction HTS_Jewelry Making Bus Final.indd 10 5/4/09 2:04:40 PM So You Want to Start Your Own 1 Jewelry Making Business You’ve probably purchased this book because you have made jewelry in the past for fun and now you want to turn your hobby into a profitable home- based business. If so, you are not alone. Over the past ten years, more and more people have been choosing self-employment to become their own boss, make more money, or have more-flexible hours.

  • MFQ Character Descriptions
    character Descriptions Chef John Bolaya- (Male) A creative, culinary genius, Chef John’s dishes are the talk of the town. Anyone who’s anyone knows that Chef Bolaya is the hottest and most celebrated food mastermind in all of New Orleans. And that’s a big deal in a town celebrated for food and drink! He’s been in business with his lifelong friend Jacques D’Argent for decades and the two have created New Orleans’ biggest and most successful restaurant group, “Roux & Roe.” He’s the talent of the operation, but he’s not a salesman. The Chef is more comfortable behind a hot stove than exchanging tall tales or hob-knobbing with New Orleans' elite. He’s the behind the curtain talent and Jacques is the showman running the front of house. Costume & Prop Suggestions: Chef hat, mustache, chef coat and white pants, plastic lobster/crawfish, plastic kitchen knife/kitchen utensil. The Debutante- Babette Chartreuse (Female) Sassy, entitled and precocious, Babette is the jet-setting, upper-crust socialite that is the center of any fete west of Canal St. She’s beautiful, opinionated, albeit vapid, but the good news: she’s wealthy. Well, her family is, namely her uber-successful father Marlon. When most young people are getting serious about career, family and future, she’s dating French race car drivers, betting on thoroughbreds and testing the buoyancy of European Zeppelins. Babette is a world-class diva and she won’t let you forget it. And if her Swarovski and Tiffany accoutrements don’t tip you off, her litany of name-dropping suitors sure will.

  • Council of Fashion Designers of America
    Council of Fashion Designers of America ANNUAL REPORT 2017 The mission of the Council of Fashion Designers of America is to strengthen the impact of American fashion in the global economy. B 1 Letter from the Chairwoman, Diane von Furstenberg, and the President and Chief Executive Officer, Steven Kolb In fashion, we respond to the world we live in, a point that was powerfully driven home in 2017. We were excited to see talents with broad cultural backgrounds and political ideas begin to express their experiences and beliefs through their collections. Diversity moved into the spotlight in ways we have never seen before. Designers embraced new approaches to business, from varying show formats to disruptive delivery cycles. It was also the year to make your voices heard, and CFDA listened. We engaged in civic initiatives important to our industry and partnered with Planned Parenthood, the ACLU, and FWD.us. We also relaunched our CFDA Health Initiative with guidelines to help those impacted by sexual assault or other forms of abuse. There’s no going back. In 2018, CFDA is moving ahead at full speed with an increased focus on inclusivity and women in fashion, the latter through an exciting new study with Glamour magazine. We may be a reflection of the world we live in, but we also work hard to make that world a better place. Altruism, after all, never goes out of style. 3 CFDA STRENGTHENED PILLARS WITH MISSION-DRIVEN ACTIONS MEMBERSHIP Fashion Professional Fashion Civic+ Retail Partnership Week + Market Development Supply Chain Philanthropy Opportunities SUSTAINABILITY INDUSTRY ENGAGEMENT SOCIAL AND EDITORIAL MARKETING AND EVENTS KEY UNCHANGED MODIFIED NEW PROVIDED INITIATIVES RELEVANT TO DESIGNERS EMERITUS AT EVERY STAGE OF CAREER DESIGNERS • Board Engagement • Philanthropy and Civic ICONIC Responsibility DESIGNERS • Mentorship • Editorial Visibility • Board Engagement • Fashion Week • Philanthropy and Civic ESTABLISHED Responsibility DESIGNERS • Mentorship • Editorial Visibility • NETWORK.
