Pre- Valentines Day Show in Santa Barbara!

So, it's been a little over 2 months since I moved to Santa Barbara and so far I'm loving it! I'm still in the exploratory stage so I'm still finding lots of cool places to check out and meeting some really awesome people here as I discover the area and get settled in. In fact, just yesterday on a walk through my neighborhood (downtown in the heart of Santa Barbara) I discovered a well kept almost tropical little park with a huge pond with turtles and ducks...what fun!

Besides finding this cute little park, I'm super excited about my first show coming up here in downtown Santa Barbara. This Saturday I spent most of the afternoon posting up flyers in town blasting our show!

I've been toiling away making some cute new heart themed jewelry and so far the response has been great! Some of my new pieces include work like these sterling silver ruby earrings:

I'm so excited to share my new pieces with you guys. I hope that if you are in the Santa Barbara area and are interested in having a glass of wine and checking out some jewelry for a loved one or for yourself, then definitely stop by! Or even if you dont want to have a glass of wine and just want to check out some lovely jewelry, stop by!
Here are all the details:

Thursday, February 7th at Carr Winery
414 North salsipuedes Street,
in Downton Santa Barbara, California

Oh yea! I forgot to mention, I will also have some lovely new wine themed jewelry for all of you wine lovers, like these wine bottle, cork stopper earrings in 14k gold fill:

Hope to see you there!

Top Five Reasons to Shop Online for Black Friday!

Whew, time just flew by this year, didnt it? Can you believe Thanksgiving is over already? I had a lovely time with my family here in NY. And then after dinner, there was talk about the madness of shopping in the malls on Black Friday.  Well, in my opinion I think more people should shop at home for Black Friday.

So here's my list of my top 5 reasons to shop online for Black Friday this year!

1. You can avoid the massively long lines, pushing, fighting, trampling, and general craziness to get the last 40" flat screen tv for 50% off.

2. There's no need to camp outside 1 week in advance in the freezing cold for said 40" flat screen tv for 50% off. Plus in your home, shopping on the computer, its comfortable and most likely nice and warm.

3. Many sites have made it soooo easy for you by offering 1 click shipping and the sales are at times just as good! And, LOTS of sites, like mine offer free gift wrapping!

4. No need to lug around heavy bags and packages while shopping in the mall carrying shopping bags with you from one store to another. (or worse if you live in NYC lugging it around on the subway).

5.No need to drive around in circles looking for a parking spot or worse sitting in traffic for hours on the freeway driving home from the mall, shopping center, etc.

So, if you're looking for some unique, one of a kind gifts and plan to shop from home this Black Friday and Cyber Monday, I'm offering Free Shipping in my shop. Just enter code: FRSHP at checkout. www.AzizaJewelry.com
Happy Shopping!

Getting Cozy with Ice Cream

Thanksgiving is coming up here in the US tomorrow and there is just so much I'm thankful for this year (but that's for another post). With the Holidays approaching, I am usually in charge of making desserts and one of my favorite additions to dessert is of course, ice-cream! So, imagine my excitement when I saw these Oh, So adorable Ice Cream Cozies online from All Things Granny

I almost couldn't (pint size) contain myself!

 This one is the royal blue one and it arrived this Monday in this cute little package...

 And it even came with the cutest little wooden ice cream spatula (a good reminder for me to stick to single size servings :)).

How cool is this- Angela from All Things Granny always offers Free Shipping and this weekend for Black Friday/ Cyber Monday she's even offering an additional 10% off. What a cute little gift this will make for an ice cream lover for the Holidays! But she doesn't just make Ice Cream Cozies, she's got some amazing custom made knits for babies and other gifts too!
Til next time,
Happy Thanksgiving!

Aziza Jewelry was featured WPIX TV!!

I'm excited to announce that I was recently featured on local TV here in NYC! My first television feature ever. I was so honored to be a part of a truly phenomenal Tri-State area show called "Working Woman Report" which airs on WPIX channel 11. It is a wonderfully inspiring show that is chock full of advice and inspiring entrepreneurial stories for today's self employed working woman.

If you get a moment, check out the clip of my segment that Allison from WPIX channel 11 has posted on her youtube page. Check it out here.

I'd love to know what you think!

Aziza Jewelry is Moving from NY to California!!

Big News!

(drumroll please.....)

I'm moving cross country! Yep, this big city girl is moving from NY to Cali and I'm taking my gems and glass jewelry with me. :) Since this is the first time I've ever had a hug move, I'm taking things slow. I'll still be filling orders as usual for the next 2 weeks and by early November I may have a slight delay in shipping as I will be packing the last of my things for the big move.

Why so far? Truth be told, I'm not a huge fan of cold weather and for the past 10 years or so I've dreampt of being able to live in a warmer climate year round and now I'm in a place in my business where I can do it!

Wish me well. I will miss NY dearly. Don't fret my lovelies, I definitely see myself returning someday in the future!
