Intern Life

I have just finished my first internship. Mejuri is an online jewelry store that connects jewelry designers to jewelry lovers. It is like no other jewelry company I had ever heard of. My role among other things involved connecting with designers who hopefully would one day design a piece of jewelry for Mejuri. Mejuri uses a crowdsourcing concept to decide the winning designs. Thanks to Katherine and I and the rest of our amazing team Mejuri received the most submissions per design challenge to date. I am happy to have had a hand in its success. Mejuri also has a blog I encourage you to follow.

The Earring Charms was the on going design challenge during out time at Mejuri. We saw it go from concept to completion. We went to sell our products in the CIBC offices in Toronto which were extremely well received.

I even did a little hand modelling thanks to our amazing photographer Amanda Source

I think internships are an interesting experience and I am glad I was able to work with a friend. I learned a lot and I am happy to have had the experience. I wish continued success to Mejuri and all of their designers.

In our final days, Katherine and I made a stop motion video to show off the beautiful earring charms!

Home Garden Centre

This summer with my lack of substantial work I have been finding other ways to keep myself busy. For some reason gardening has become a surprisingly fun pass time. There is just something about seeing your hard work have such a beautiful end result.

My 10 acre property has a substantial amount of weeds on it but there are little gardens around that can look magnificent after some well deserved attention

We bought some cheater plants so our garden is growing pretty well. We have a little green house that we are going to use next year so we can create our own cheater plants and not have to buy them. We have already enjoyed many zucchinis and salads thanks to it.

I couldn’t get it all done without my amazing team, gf t-swizzle, bf jmac, mommy dearest and the master of the house.

Flower Power or should I say tomato, lettuce, zucchini, potatoes and pepper power
