you may recall me saying last year</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;">
that I would be moving my studio to a "much larger" space in my home</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;">
10' X 10"</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;">
I felt like I was going to run into something behind me</div>

</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">

</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">

affaire at tiffany's in manhattan beach, ca</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
started off with a vendor night</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and a night for all the women attendees</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
to dress up in "audrey" attire</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
here are a few photos of my table</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
we were given a six foot round table to showcase our items</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
a round table is very challenging to set up</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but i think it all came out okay in the end</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
was truly a wonderland of everything tiffany blue and audrey hepburn</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
my eyes seem to still have a tiffany blue filter on them</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
as they viewed this color for four days and now it seems it is here to stay!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i was a hostess for one of the many swaps that you were able to sign up for</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
mine was "a charming tiffany necklace"</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
my swap had 20 participants and they all submitted 20 of the same charms to me</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
to assemble on these necklaces</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
each participants charms were different</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and all had the tiffany blue theme</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
here are some sneak peeks of the packaging and the necklace when finally assembled</div>
