It all started when I went in to a new consignment store to see about taking clothes. I overheard Lora, the owner, talking to someone about having art and jewelry by local artists. I talked to her, and the result was a trunk show. I provided the models and the jewelry, she provided the clothes.

Saturday, Oct. 12, Ann, Bonnie, Jacqueline and Joanne each wore two outfits with matching jewelry.  They all enjoyed it, Lora made some sales and so did I.
