Welcome to the About Me Page for
Mary Lou Harris!
Thank you for visiting!
I design jewelry and accessories to delight the person wearing the item, and to bring pleasure to the person looking at the person wearing them!
I have designed many necklaces, bracelets, and earrings that are available for purchase. I also do custom work for people who want something specific in terms of color, size, choice of bead or stone, or clasp. Another service I offer is redesigning necklaces, bracelets, and earrings you have--but don't wear.
I was recently asked by a repeat customer to redesign a long strand of green malachite into a choker, bracelet and earrings. When I delivered her new jewelry to her, she was delighted and put it on right away. When she looked in the mirror, her face lit up. This is an important part of why I find my work fulfilling. When I left her she was glowing. Her associate promised to take her out for a glass of wine that evening. He is the one who was able to enjoy seeing the necklace on her, but the delight--the shift in how she felt--was hers!
I will be designing ID badges for people who want somethng more decorative and interestng than the typical ID badge band. Coming soon!
I am happy to answer questions, and will create an eBay listing for you in Custom Categories if you request it.
I have a limited supply of KUNERT wool/cotton blend tights in my eBay store. Women have written me asking for help finding wool tights.
The U.S. distributor for KUNERT tights is no longer carrying this line. The tights I presently have in my inventory in large and XL cannot be replaced through the supplier from whom I purchased them. I expect KUNERT wool blend tights to be less available in the U.S. this fall and winter than they have been in the past.
You will find very nice Plus Size clothing items in my store. I will be listing more in October!
I am putting more emphasis on collectibles in my eBay store. I have some great items ready to list. They incude vintage clay poker chips, sterling silver salt spoons, and Haviland china.
I will be putting an emphasis on collectible cups and saucers, cookie jars, Fiesta Ware, Hummels, Haviland and Blue Willow. Why did I select these collectibles?I grew up with Blue Willow and Red Wing cookie jars. I have Haviland that belonged to my great-grandparents. I have Hummels given to me by my Mother as well as one that I gave to my Sweetheart in 1958 before he left for a military assignment in Europe. This figure, The Merry Wanderer, still has the original tag.
I am still in the process of distributing (releasing) many items from the home of my parents. I would like to assist and support others going through this process. I am a trading assistant for select collectible items.
About Me:
I am a dancer. I enjoy social partner dancing. I serve on the board of the Northwest Dance Network. I love to dance the Waltz, Swing, Foxtrot, Twostep and more! This exercise is a great balance to the more sedentary time spent working. I both lead and follow and have learned a lot from taking on both roles.
I have added the link for the Northwest Dance Network to my About Me page. This organization offers excellent classes, workshops, and dances in the Seattle area. Saturday night dances feature live music. A dance atmosphere free of smoke and alcohol is provided. Check the nwdance.net web site for details. You may contribute to this organization through eBay Giving Works when you list an item to sell on eBay.
Another dance venue I enjoy is Waltz Etcetera located in Shoreline (north Seattle area). You will find the link to their web page listed as well. Perhaps I'll see you on the dance floor!
I would welcome hearing from you and I hope to do business with you!
