July 2015 California Gift Show

Palos Verdes Art Center Home Tour and Boutique April 2015

• I returned to Palos Verdes for my annual Boutique.This was my first showing of  the new silver collection and Wow what a show! This was my best show ever in PV. Necklaces flew.All my hard work paid off and I am very excited about the new direction of  Design Imports. Thank you to all my faithful clients who I see year after year.

March 2015 Taxco shopping trip

So I made the 12 hour (door to door) trip for a week of search, search and buy!! I stayed in a 17th C Monastery very close to the middle of town and I hit the streets.I was sure to visit all my favorite vendors but the real reason to go is to find the new designers and the new trends. Every afternoon I would ship home my day's booty and in the end it was about 150 lbs of sterling silver jewelry. I bought 500 pair of earring, several hundred rings and fabulous, unique necklaces. I am anxious to see the response to the new merchandise. Jane
