Cool Finds

by franci 2. February 2009 12:04

Traveling has become one of my greatest passions. There's nothing like experiencing different cultures and seeing different landscapes. While I travel, I always have Friago in the back of my mind. I'm always looking to find beautiful & fun things to bring back. On my last trip to Chile, I found a ton of different pieces to work with. My favorite so far? Check it out:

Copper Loops Earrings:

Brass Loops Earrings:

 I find these to be so visually interesting and simple at the same time. I'm a huge fan of metal jewelry, especially with different tones. They are very lightweight, which is always a factor with METAL....I'm actually thinking about keeping a pair, which is rare for me!

What do you think.......Would you wear these?

Winter, Spring and Fall Scarves

by franci 15. January 2009 15:22

 Friago is now carrying scarves....and all you fashion forward ladies listen up! They are handmade & can be custom-made (who doesn't love that?!) They are gorgeous, fun & flirty (again, who doesn't love that?!) and they are extremely reasonably priced, I KNOW we all love that! If you want Long & chunky - $35, Light & Skinny - $30 They come in a yummy assortment of colors & sizes for all seasons. 

Take a peek at a few of them:

From my own experience, I can tell you that I get sick and tired of looking for accessories or even clothing that has some kind of original flare. Everything is mass produced, every store carries the same crap and, in most cases, it's all very visibly cheap.
Geez, is that enough of a rant for you or what? hehehe...
But really now, back to the subject, these scarves are crotchet from nylon ribbon and really look stunning on. 
My mother-in-law just sold one right off her neck!
 That, in itself, goes to show you how hungry consumers are to show off something new and unique!
   
Currently they are ONLY available through The Friago Etsy shop....
Keep an eye out they are coming soon to the official Friago Boutique!!
They can be worn in sooo many different ways to match your mood or outift:
If you have suggestions for colors or patterns you might like to see, please let us know!

by franci 3. December 2008 16:46
Hey everyone! As some of you might know, I had a little accident on Monday (read the posting before this one if you don't know what im talking about) I have been feeling horrible....But even with a concussion I looked through all 55 shops....It was painful and exhausting, but still great to discover a bunch of new shops! Due to the painful throbbing in my head I changed things up a bit and did a holiday gift guide......7 things for 7 different people.
I will be in Chile (the skinny little country in South America lol) from December 7th to the 18th so there will be no Top 7 at 7pm until January. :( :( I will, however be posting 'other' fun things so be sure to check back!

Top 7 at 7pm

Horrible Accident

by franci 1. December 2008 13:34

Thank you to everyone who posted for the Decemeber 1st top 7 at 7pm!

I had a small accident early this morning.....My husband installed a pull-up bar in one of the hallways in my house. I jumped on it to do a pull-up and the bar came off the door frame. Of course,  I was already all the way up. I fell straight down on my butt and smacked the back of my head on the, extremely hard, TILE floor..........If you're thinking omg ouch! you are absolutely correct. My head was bleeding most of the morning and now hours later I'm very sore and achey all over with a throbbing headache. Needless to say, the Top 7 at 7pm will NOT be happenening tonight. It usually takes me a good 4-5 hours to go through the shops, gather images, links, and set it all up.

I'm feeling really horrible so it will be postponed until WEDNESDAY...at 7pm (the PINK giveaway is also postponed). 

Sorry for any inconvenience. :( But please be sure to check back!

Thanks

Mrs. All of a Sudden Accident Prone

P.S. My hubby took pictures of my head, but they are too gross and graphic to post. Thought you might wanna keep your lunches in your tummies!

Top 7 at 7pm

Who doesn't love PINK?

by franci 26. November 2008 07:34

I love to travel, but the plane ride is the worst part!...I get bored VERY easily so I make sure to have a fair share of candy, magazines, & music along with me. On my latest trip (Mexico, I'll be blogging about it soon!) I grabbed an issue of one of my favorite magazines, PINK!

From www.pinkmagazine.com:

PINK exists to promote this new generation of women who are making a significant impact on the world through their work and their lives-while being true to themselves.

Being a business woman myself I try to read about other successful women as much a possible. Try to steal some secrets or even just to get inspired and excited about what possibilities are out there for me and my little business! Kiss This is why I have decided to do a magazine subscription giveaway!

Please post a comment here telling me why you would benefit from this subscription!

The winner will receive 7 issues of PINK magazine FREE!!! (courtesy of Friago) & will be announced on December 1st right before  the Top 7 at 7pm. 

Please be sure to enter your email so I can contact you!

Good luck to all.....

(Me) in a very small nutshell....

My passion is design. I love to create and see other peoples creations. I'm meticulous and full of energy about pretty much everything. I can't have one boring moment in my life or I go crazy. I love to talk and shop and look at beautiful things.

I am the owner of Friago.com, an online jewelry boutique, which features my own collections along with the work of other talented jewelry designers whose work I admire & appreciate.

More good stuff.....
