Layering

2009-11-05T16:14:00.003-06:00

Layering is a fun way to wear your jewelry. I mix 2-3 necklaces almost every day. It is a fun way to accessorize! Very easy!

This look is great for any size/frame of women, too! If you are one that usually just wears a simple necklace, try something new for a change! Who knows, you just may Love it!

All of the items shown here are Stormy Brooke Designs and can be purchased through me. Just simply send me an email requesting prices and what you are looking for! I will take good care of you!

Throw on a scarf and pull your colors out with necklaces of contrasting colors!

God–Given Dreams

2009-10-01T12:09:00.004-05:00

TODAY'S SCRIPTURE
"A man's mind plans his way, but the Lord directs his steps and makes them sure"(Proverbs 16:9, AMP)

TODAY'S WORD from Joel and Victoria Osteen

"Oftentimes as children, we have dreams of the future. Dreams of being ball players and actresses, super heroes, and firemen. But most of the time, they end up just being wishful thinking. As we get older, we grow out of them. It's good to play and have dreams as children, but when we grow up, we have to know the difference between a God-given dream and a wish. I remember when I was a little boy, I dreamed of playing basketball for the Houston Rockets. That was definitely a fantasy!

But we all have dreams placed inside of us by the Creator of the Universe. In fact, the Latin word for "desire" means "from the Father." You can tell if a dream is really from God if that desire won't go away. You may have had it for years, and you still can't let it go. In fact, you may have tried to let it go, but it won't let go of you.

I encourage you to search your heart today and allow those God–given dreams to surface. He placed those desires inside of you for a purpose, and He's going to use them to direct you into the destiny He has in store for you! "
_________________________________________________________________
Recently, I've found myself thinking of my dreams quite frequently! Over 4 years ago, my mother started making beaded necklaces, bracelets, and earrings. She kept on telling me "Storm, you would be really good at this. Why don't you do it too." I would quickly tell her "No, I don't think so." It was something I never put any thought into. Having real jewelers for parents, I never thought that was anything I would want to do when I grew up. Every so often, Mom would bring it up again, "Storm, I really think you would like this. Just try it!" My answer was the same every time. Until, one day, I looked at some beads online...

I looked at all the millions of beads out there, the colors, what selection! My loving husband (then boyfriend) encouraged me and that was all it took. I placed my first order with $200 for a few beads and supplies. Now, years later, I am about to take my jewelry business on full-time while getting to stay home with my new precious baby boy! This is truly a blessing from God!

There is no way, without God, that the Stormy Brooke Designs collection would have taken off the way it has. My clientele now stretches from coast to coast and am now getting into wholesaling in boutiques all over the country!

As a little girl, I went from door to door selling flower pots I painted (I even had a catalog they could order from that I created) and friendship bracelets (which at $.10 each, I made over $200, and all went to charity!) My neighborhood knew me very well and most supported me in everything I went around selling. Oh yes, and thank you to all the church members who bought the sermon handouts I collected after church and sold to them as they walked out... Yes, I really did that...

My dream has Always been to have my own business. To create things people liked and to see the item put a smile on their face, was a pure blessing to me!

God has truly blessed me by preparing me for this jewelry business all my life and planting the perfect opportunities right in front of me! This is Truly My DREAM! Thank you to everyone who has supported me in this dream!

More Monograms

2009-05-29T22:16:00.007-05:00

These are all for friends of my good friend. She described what each one likes to wear and we created these custom monogram necklaced for them.

This one is one of my new favorites:

This one is very similar to the one I wear all the time:

This one is much smaller beads than I usually use. This is another way your necklace can be customized to your liking, by bead size.

I have these 3 in stock and I will make any of these designs by custom order after these are gone. They are so fun!

Car Show

2009-05-03T14:58:00.003-05:00

Mom & I had a booth at the Car Show on Saturday. It was May 2nd and felt like December 2nd. It was so cold & rainy and the wind made it even worse! It warmed up after lunch to maybe 60 degrees. Mom & I always have such a great time together at shows, so it makes it all worth it!

2009-05-01T17:48:00.000-05:00

My sweet friend wears pink a lot, and loves both gold and silver jewelry. She left this design completely up to me. I really think it will look so great on her no matter what outfit she chooses each day. These monogram necklaces have been so much fun to customize for each person!

Once I got started making necklaces tonight I just didn't want to stop. I received these beads in an order a few days ago and couldn't wait for the opportunity to sit down and design a necklace out of them! I knew exactly what I wanted it to look like and I just love it! Turquoise will go with Anything!
