Celebrating Marie Antoinette!!!


Only a few more weeks until Stampington’s “Marie” magazine is released to the world!!! Marie is due on newsstands April 1. But you can pre-order a copy for your very own self, HERE.


Why am I excited? Back last December, the editors of Stampington notified me, that my Marie Antoinette jewelry would be published in this special edition! As a devoted fan of all things Marie Antoinette, I have just been over the moon with happiness that my homage to Marie will be celebrated between the pages of this wonderful publication.

So I've decided to have a P-A-R-T-Y!!!


In celebrating the magazine release, I've decided to theme my party “Celebrating Marie”. The party will last for 1 week (April 1 - 7) with a different Marie post each day. I’ll also have several give-aways during the week, lots of fun history and facts about Marie’s life and lots of sparkling glamour too!

So mark your calendars dear friends! You are invited to come and celebrate your inner-Queen as we also celebrate the beautiful Queen of France, Marie Antoinette!

What a lovely idea. When does the party start?
I'm not sure if you missed my email, but I nominated you for a blog award. I will soon have my Marie Antoinette jewelery in hand. I can hardly wait.

Perfect timing! I'm preparing notes for a term paper on Marie Antoinette and her (fashion) contribution to culture then and now. Can't wait for the party. I hope there will be cake...;-)

I just found your blog while blog surfing, and want to say CONGRATS!!!! And I loove the idea of a Marie-themed party! Yay! I will plan to do Marie-themed things on my blog too that week. :-) I might even post pics of my old high school prom dress...it was Marie blue & white lace, probably super uncool even in the 80s but I loved it, LOL!!!

Also am trolling through your jewelry...oh dear, there goes my budget...hehe! :-)
