Pop Goes a Trunk Show

Pop Goes a Trunk Show

12341452_1062709150416190_3885192386110728457_nThe idea for doing a trunk show at the shop has been kicking around ever since we opened. We have this great little retail space literally in the “backroom” that has been kind of screaming for it, but for this reason or that (…we had the Farmstore back there for a while and we kinda like having a place to eat lunch) we haven’t pursued the idea…until now.  This Saturday, we’re going to do it.  We’re “popping up” a trunk show just for the day featuring a couple of very cool and talented women – you like fashion and jewelry and COLOR???  Come on into the”backroom” featuring MaryJane Artwear and Judi McCormick Jewelry.  This Saturday, December 12th from 11-4.

MaryJane Artwear:   MaryJane Sarvis applies paints and dyes to silks and velvets to create11011679_639126849523510_5782639501839724466_n scarves12079085_10153742328586940_3983187054390642331_n and couture that have turned celebrities such as Carly Simon and Oprah Winfrey into fans. She graduated from Bennington College and now lives high on a hilltop in southern Vermont. Her creations have been featured at Bergdorf Goodman and in museum shops across the USA. She happens to be friends with Courtney and brought up the notion of a trunk show over coffee. We’re so glad she did!

Judi McCormick Jewelry:  Judi  travels the world in search of pearls and gemstones and creates12301697_10206461860478495_2661948708092755228_n unique necklaces, earrings, bracelets, and cuffs. I am one of her many many fans and proud owner of one of her “not so classic” pearl necklaces.  I wear it pretty much every other day of my 11152335_10153793579322678_3815902924063357234_nlife – and get compliments on it just as much! She lives and creates right here in Manchester and in addition to beautiful jewels, Judi is an innovator of jewelry solutions such as the “rabbit ears”(they keep your heavy studs standing up straight) and magnetic “connectors” which can turn one necklace into a variety of looks.

Meet the artists.  Hear the stories.  Feel the energy.  Color your world!
