Our Newest Member at Charming Life


Hailey has been with Charming Life Designs from our humble beginnings and she's helped us become the organized, well-run office that we are today. So, when she decided to leave her position as Office Manager and become a full-time mom, we had mixed feelings. Of course, we were all thrilled for her. Most of us are moms and we know how magical those baby years are. However, Hailey was our computer guru and an expert at loading software, solving server issues, dealing with CSV files, and handling computer meltdowns with confidence. I really had no desire to delve into THAT territory. Hummm, I thought, maybe she really won't want to be a full-time mom . . .

Then, of course, Miss Evalyn Ruby made her grand entrance (3 weeks early, I'd like to add). My dreams of avoiding calls to tech departments were dashed. It was clear that Evalyn was here to stay and that Mom had her hands full. It was also clear that all of us at Charming Life Designs would have to wean ourselves from our need to run to Hailey to solve our technical problems. Oh, how reality bites sometimes.

Now that the dust has settled, Hailey and Evalyn are back in our lives. This time as a team. Hailey continues to be a stay-at-home mom, but helps us by working out of her home. She's now a member of our manufacturing team and creates jewelry for us when Evalyn is napping. Evalyn helps out by being an absolutely gorgeous and perfect baby.

One of our most popular charm necklaces is our Angel Wing and Heart necklace. For many customers, the Angel Wing Necklace represents someone dear to their hearts. Packaged with a jewelry pouch, it makes a great gift for the holidays.

  1. Sorry to leave so early...Evalyn was excited to come! I love being a mommy now and am grateful for the opportunity I have to do a little work from home. This is the first time I've seen this blog and there are some great posts! I think it's time for me to get some new jewelry...do we have anything slobber-proof?
