ALISSA HERE:
Hi loves, I’m so excited to introduce you to one of my amazing sponsors this month, Erin, from The Vintage Pearl. Her shop is every bit swoon worthy and if you haven’t had a chance to check out … you must!
Keep reading to get to know Erin a little better.
————————–
Erin! You are a wonderful momma to four children, loving wife and business owner. Can you tell us your secrets on how you do it all?
I don’t do it all alone! I’m very blessed to have an amazing team that helps me with alot- Jill runs the business side of things while June Anne makes sure everything is running smoothly on the production side. This allows me to have time to focus on other things- like creating new designs! My husband also helps out with the business quite a bit- he’s the business “brains” behind much of tvp. He’s also understanding when I need a night off to get work done, and he takes the kids out for a fun daddy night. We are careful to turn our “business modes” off and spend quality time with the kids in the evenings and much of our weekends are revolved around their sports schedules- which we love!
What’s the story behind ‘The Vintage Pearl’ as your shop name?
I originally started out as “bellatessa jewels” (a long story) and didn’t feel like it quite fit. I had been thinking and praying about a different name, and while I was wrapping a pearl onto a vintage styled necklace, it clicked and I loved it!
What is your inspiration behind your beautiful line of jewelry?
As a Mom, I try to create pieces that are meaningful to me, or could have some significance and sentiment to others. I get inspired everywhere- whether it’s outside at the park with my kids, talking with a friend or shopping in busy New York City- inspiration is everywhere and hits me at the most random moments sometimes!
ALISSA AGAIN:
Isn’t she inspiring?! Erin is also offering all my readers a 10% discount this month using the code: rags10

I do not leave many comments, but i did a few searching and wound up here The
Vintage Pearl Giveaway – giveaways, lifestyle – Rags to Stitches.
And I actually do have a couple of questions for you if it’s allright. Could it be only me or does it look as if like a few of the comments come across like they are written by brain dead folks? 😛 And, if you are posting on other sites, I’d
like to keep up with anything new you have to post. Could you make a list of
the complete urls of your communal pages like your linkedin profile, Facebook page or twitter feed?
