The summer season in Maine is on our doorstep. Are your rack cards, business cards, brochures, or other printed materials up to date? We’re working on new and revised versions of all of the above for for a number of clients, and we’d love to help you be ready for summer, too. Just send me an email or give me a call and we’ll get the ball rolling.

There’s still time to choose a piece of jewelry from my current collection as a special Christmas gift. I am also taking custom orders through tomorrow afternoon (December 17). My most popular new design this season is the hammered hoop with South Seas shell pearl and small amethysts or other stones wired in the center of the hoop. These are available as earrings and also as a pendant on a chain, in both sterling silver and 14-carat filled gold.

On Christmas morning I really enjoy thinking about all the ladies opening boxes with my designs inside. I hope they all love their gifts!

December has arrived and that means it’s time for the annual gathering of some of the world’s most spectacular yachts at the famous charter yacht show in Antigua (www.antigua-charter-yacht-meeting.com).

Some 125 yachts ranging up to 289 feet (Maltese Falcon) in length will be lined up stern-to on the docks ready to dazzle the charter brokers and encourage them to recommend them to their clients. I’ll be meeting with current and future clients about brochures — both digital and printed — and email blasts that help them stand out from the fleet and increase their charter bookings.

Come see my new designs at the Art-Full Gifts Fine Arts & Crafts Show next weekend, Friday, Nov. 19, through Sunday, Nov. 21.

It’s a top-quality show! Point Lookout Resort, U.S. Route 1, Northport, Maine. 5-8 p.m. Friday; 10 a.m.-4 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. See you there!
