Thanks Coupon Code

Hi I hope everyone is having a great holiday weekend. Of course I was busy too with my own family so I didn't get to post this sooner. I bought so much during black Friday. It was crazy! Now I'm here to share with you a coupon code just to say thanks for all the support. To get 15% off ETSY on all orders before shipping, type in the coupon code "THANKS15"

Code will expire on Nov 30, 2010 at 11:59pm pst. Just a few days left so here is the link to my etsy store: www.simplyyj.etsy.com

My new camera

I mentioned in earlier posts that I purchased a new camera. I've been searching for a better quality point and shoot camera and have been looking on reviews online. I found almost all sites suggesting Canon Powershot S90 but I wanted something that records HD video as well so I was considering the Canon Powershot SD4000. I later found a camera that recently just came out. The Canon Powershot S95 is the succeeding model of the S90 and it includes HD video recording. The price is quite expensive compared to other point and shoot cameras I've purchased before but it was worth it. I am in love with this camera. So here is a picture of it (that I took with my older camera).




It takes really amazing pictures. Here is a picture I recently took outside my house. Just a sample photo.




and here is a picture of jewelry. I wanted a better picture because I wasn't happy with the picture I had of it before.




I don't have the best photography skills but I'm learning! =)




So just a little random update. There is 36 days until Christmas and 38 days until my birthday. I really enjoy the holidays but this year I'm away from family. As I've mentioned before, I'm here in North Carolina to be with my husband because he is in the military. Well speaking of military, tomorrow is the Marine Corps Ball and I'm really excited! I didn't get to go last year so I'm really looking forward to going this year. I bought a dress 2 weeks ago which I may take a picture and show you. I don't have shoes to match though so I have to figure something out soon. I also bought a ton of things the last few weeks. Anybody interested in pictures? (I'm finding reasons to use my camera)


I also like to add a "Christmas Deadline" for jewelry orders. In order to receive your order by Christmas, US orders must be placed by December 18, 2010 and International orders must be placed by December 4, 2010. Make your orders soon! Until next time =)

Mai


Congratulations! I've emailed you so all the details should be there. Thanks to everyone who entered. This is not my last one so don't give up!

Finally some new jewelry

I wanted to post this up before I go to bed tonight because I found time to take pictures and edit them earlier today. I'm happy to say that I have a few new pieces to show you. Finally! So here they are:


 #CE253 Lotus Pearl Dangle Cuff Earring
Features swarovski crystals and light pink pearls within silver flower petals forming lotus-like charms.




#CE254 Holiday Joy II Cuff Earring
Features green and red pearls and crystals just in time for the holidays.




#CE255 Plain Gold Heart Cuff Earring
A simple cuff earring in all gold featuring a heart stud.





#CE256 Gold Caged Stardust Cuff Earring
Features a cage design surrounding stardust beads and dangling filigree beads. Gold dangle hook is surgical steel.



A small update on the mini giveaway, only 5 people entered which gives all those who entered a really good chance in winning the $10 gift certificate. I am a bit disappointed with the number of entries but I am still going to pick a winner none the less. That will be on another post though so look out for that. I am also planning on posting more random pictures once I receive my camera case. I don't like taking my camera around without a case since it's so new. I'm excited!
