Body Luxe at the Daytime Emmys

So here it is...Body Luxe is going to the Daytime Emmy Awards! 

Really?  Yes, really.
I was contacted earlier this week by a promoter that puts together swag bags for this event wondering if I would be interested in participating.  Interested?  Heck yeah!  To possibly get my product into the hands of the likes of Oprah and other TV stars and moguls.  Ummmm, I think I'll take it.  Yes please.  Just cream no sugar, thank you.

So now I set off on a course to decide what best represents my brand and how that will translate into my new venture, Azure Sky Botanicals (more to come on that later) as I will be merging Body Luxe with this new brand identity.  What to do, what to do?

And there are boxes to order...
And supplies to order....
And ribbon to buy...
And...

It's been a whirlwind week of trying to decide what to make, then how to get all the necessary supplies to make it happen.  And, I am still in shock, I think, so my brain is a bit fuzzy and all swirly. 

More to come on this very soon!

In the mean time, help me to choose a scent that you think will be a hit at the Emmys!  Leave your choices in the comments box and the scent that gets the most votes wins a free sample of their chosen scent!

Entires must be in by Sunday 5/15!

Textures of the zoo ~ Revealed and a winner too!

So here they are! The textures revealed...

From top to bottom:

1. The skin of an elephant trunk

2. A banana leaf with dew on it

3. The trunk of a tree in the Rainforest Exhibit...with a praying man, Mary and or a dragon in it. I didn't notice the images until my Sarah pointed the "Lady" out. Just neat.

4. A pirannah! I took the picture through glass and the way it came out was just so neat. That was a tough one, I know!

5. The center of a peony.

And, the winner is....our lovely friend Dagmar from Barefoot From Heaven! She had the closest guesses. Please email me at kasiablue72@msn.com to exchange our info.

Thanks so much for playing with me. I am already plotting my next brain teaser :)

After a rather humid day at the Buffalo Zoo with my 6 year old, I sat down to look at all of the pictures that I had taken during the trip. Many were conventional ~ like giraffes, monkeys and a posing toucan ~ and others just made me go Wow, what a textured and tactile world we live in!

So, in the spirit of having a little fun, we're going to play a guessing game. If you can guess what each of the pictures represent you will have a chance to win a free Chrysanthemum ring from my Poetica Studio on Etsy. Please submit all of your entries as a comment on this post. If multiple people guess correctly, then a drawing will be held to determine the winner. Entries must be submitted by June 3, 2009. Winner will be announced on June 4th right here on my blog.

Have fun and good luck!!!! Some of them are hard because they may not be exactly what you might think :)

And I'm just cranking things out like a gemalicious machine! Although, I am a bit tired. But, since the ideas keep on coming, I simply keep on making...and making...and making...and...

Thanks to all of you that have particiapated so far in my name game contest! Don't forget that submissions end on the 30th, so get your friends to join in the fun too!

xoxo and have a dream filled night
