Good afternoon everyone.
High spirits at Jam Gallery reign supreme.We are waitng we are waiting.For what??????
For the very ultra beautiful jewellery winging its way to Arundel all the way from an architects studio in venice.Very nice.I will put a link in when it arrives.There have been numerous pre arrival orders so we are very excited.
Our lady in Sussex Claire is doing another jewellery party for us tonight.Poor girl, it always seems to rain heavily when she does these events.But it seems that she is happy to go on doing them.If you are interested in jewellery parties-doing or having then drop us a line or come in.Its a decent earner!!
Bye Bye Bye,

Good afternoon everyone.
The shop did well today.And we also had a few good internet sales.
However, the day started a little rough, as Jackie the owner, walked in,in a bad mood thanks to the weather and i was tired and hungry due to my daily wake up call of 5.30 am. and rather small breakfast.
We are in the process of setting up another trade fair in Earls court.Jan 17th-19th.
We only have one product- a silk sari bracelet.More on that at a later date.
Im off.
bye bye.

Hola everyone.
Thank god the sun is shining.We've had a hard time of it over the past 3 or 4 days.
Arundel-the shops location, is being or rather has been dug up.It's the pipes, they tell us.The weather was terrible the recession was on and Arundel was under seige from the men in orange with their pneumatic drills.Just to top it off the local radio chipped in by kindly warning people to stay away from Arundel this weekend.
As i was saying.The sun is shining and we got off to a flying start this morning selling one of our favorites from Gail Klevan.
Fingers crossed for the rest of the week.
And a big kiss to all those who have already started to do their christmas shopping.
Until tomorrow.
Dominic

Well today was difficult.Builders are building a new road outside the shop.Human traffic is non existant, oh dear oh dear.On the bright side, jean a colleague had a jewellery making class today upstairs in the workshop.It was as far as icould tell from all the oohhs and agghhhs a rather exciting class where i hope she took on board a lot of money making tips.Well done Jean.
Im off to watch the football so can't stay long,bye bye bye.cmon chelsea.

Monday monday

What a great weekend for the shop.Apart from sunday morning which was not surprising seen as though the weather was more patagonia than west sussex.
We sold out on our stock of Oceanic which is now a real staple for us.Thank god we found them when the recession hit.The prices are cheap but the quality of design and materials are surprisingly high.
We recieved bags.Handbags clutch bags big bags and small bags, all from Blondie mania.These really are high quality items,although i must admit, being a man i can't really see the with the eyes of a woman when it comes to an item as bland as a bag.However, i am assured by many that these are to die for!!
Today was quiet.My mother and i got on with a lot of paperwork.We listened to some good music on the shops mp3 and turned it up for a couple of rolling stones and Jimi Hendrix records.Don't we live dangerously!!!
Blondie mania bags will be on the website this week.Don't miss out.

Good Afternoon,
All is well in Arundel.The shop did very well today.
But i am in a double rush so i can't talk for too long.
We just had vogue ring us up.Apparantly they are doing
big big price cuts on the advertising editorial they run.
Do i want to advertise???
I dont know.There are so many things we need to spend our
money on. Bills included,even though we tend to put them to
the back of the pile...haha!
Here we go.My mum-Jackie, just walked in the shop.She is the
owner.The big boss.She has exellent taste but is not very
logical or tidy!!Thank god she can't turn on the computer.
Bye bye bye

At last we are part of the blogging world.
Hi!My name is Dominic.I run a small boutique shop in Arundel west sussex in England.
It is my mothers shop.We sell mainly jewellery.Unique unusual or very pretty that is the staple.
The best part of running the shop is definately the buying.We go all over the globe to purchase.Infact i started to buy for my mothers shop when i lived in India for a couple of years.
Anyway there is a lot to tell but i have customers in the shop so i must go now.
Today by the way has been an alright day, quite productive really plus we got a new consignment from a well known singer/jewellery maker, it is called Punky Allsorts very funky quite young and quite a hit for christmas.
