COMING SOON...COCO DIAMONDS

2011-03-30T10:22:00.000-07:00

As you may know, diamonds are available in a variety of colors...various shades of yellow, blue, pink, and even black. But the color that is all the rage right now is a deep chocolate brown. We have assembled an exclusive collection of these rich chocolate colored diamonds set in a wide range of rings, pendants and earrings. We call them our "CoCo Collection", and they're all mounted in 14K rose gold. They are spectacular, and will soon be available exclusively here at E.M. Smith Jewelers. Stay tuned for further posts regarding our "CoCo Collection", which will arrive later in April.

DID YOU KNOW???

Did you know that diamonds attract grease like a magnet? In fact, when diamond ore is mined, it is dumped on conveyor belts covered with grease. As the belts rotate, diamond crystals actually stick to the grease while the rest of the ore falls away. While grease may be useful when mining diamonds, it absolutely kills the sparkle of your diamonds when they come in contact with lotions, soaps, or anything else with an oily or greasy base. That's why it is so important to keep your diamond jewelry clean. Be sure to soak your diamond jewelry every night in a jar of our jewelry cleaner. Do this every night and you'll be shocked at how many people will suddenly notice your super-sparkly diamonds! To make your own jewelry cleaner, mix 3 oz. of water with one 1 oz. of ammonia and just a squirt of Dawn dishwashing liquid. Or, if you don't want to make your own, stop in our store and mention this blog, and we'll give you a jar absolutely free.

Las Vegas Here We Come!

2010-10-03T05:35:00.001-07:00

Well, today is the day! Bob, Mandy and I are heading to Las Vegas for Hearts on Fire University. What is Hearts on Fire University you ask? Well, let me tell you!

First of all, let me tell you about Hearts on Fire Diamonds. Hearts on Fire diamonds are the Worlds Most Perfectly Cut diamonds! They have a sparkle and fire unlike any other diamond out there. It is a diamond that will truely set you apart!

Okay, enough of that...we are talking about Vegas Here! The Hearts on Fire Company every year invites all of it's retail stores to an educational seminar...IN VEGAS! It is 3 days of intense classes learning every detail about Hearts on Fire diamonds.

Today we travel to Vegas. We should get into Las Vegas around 2pm. We are staying at the Bellagio which is where Hearts on Fire University is located. We have an appointment right after we arrive in Vegas to check out the entire Hearts on Fire line! We will be placing our order for the Christmas Season.

The Hearts on Fire company does an amazing job teaching us and getting us excited about their diamonds...but, guess what they do better...PARTY! This evening, we will attend the welcome party by the pool. The party is "Western" theme, so make sure you stay tuned...pictures will be posted!

Well, that is all for now. I am packed and waiting to leave. My plan is to update this blog as often as I can, which should automatically update our Facebook page. I hope you stay tuned and follow us on this adventure!

P.S. I am sure I speak for Mandy when I say this...As exciting and fun as this trip will be, it is always hard to leave your family behind. So, to my family...Miss You Already...Love You!

Emmys & Jewelry

2009-09-20T20:55:00.000-07:00

So I watched the Emmy's tonight, although I got a late start. Between putting the kids to bed and my husband watching football, it was well into the second hour of the show. I missed my favorite part, the red carpet arrivals. I have been trying to look online to see all of the dirt about who was best/worst dressed but I have not had much luck yet. I will continue on my quest tomorrow and days to come, looking for inspiration in the fashion department.

Here are my thoughts of what I did get to see of the show. I loved Drew Barrymore's hair and makeup, I thought she looked very elegant. I give props to Heidi Klum, are you serious...she looked amazing! I think my favorite so far is Jennifer Love Hewitt's yellow dress, long hair and beautiful earrings.

Speaking of jewelry, here is what I saw. Stunning drippy chandelier earrings, with hair worn up and down. We had an equally stunning pair of Hearts on Fire diamond earrings in our store not so long ago. I tried them on, and yes they are heavy, but man they make you feel like a celeb! I also saw lots of bracelets. Wide diamond cuffs and bangle bracelets mostly.

The most exciting jewelry I saw...huge gemstone rings! I saw celebs wearing really big colored gemstone rings, some of them with more than one on. The best part, we just got a fun selection of really big colored gemstone rings in the store. You have to stop in and try them on. You could totally be rocking a huge gemstone ring just like the celebrities do!

Check back soon, I will post pictures of these super cool rings. ~Melissa

9/11 ~ We will never forget.

2009-09-11T14:24:00.000-07:00

I remember 8 years ago today coming to work. It was a Tuesday morning. It was an exciting day for 2 of my fellow employees. They would be flying to Las Vegas to attend Hearts on Fire University. This is an exciting training seminar put on by the Hearts on Fire company to teach us all about their diamonds. We were putting out the jewelry in the morning before the store opened, and we got a phone call. "Turn on the news" they said. "A plane hit the World Trade Center in NY." We turned on the Today Show and began watching the days events unfold. Our first thought was our 2 employees that were going to fly to Las Vegas later that day. Of course their flight was cancelled. Then our thoughts went out to the Hearts on Fire companies employees. They were flying out that morning to Las Vegas from Boston. We heard later that day, that everyone either made it to Las Vegas safely, or they did not end up going.

I just remember being at work, watching the news and wanting to be with my family. My daughter was only 7 months old at the time. When I came home that night, she was bouncing in her excersaucer happy as could be. She had no idea what had transpired that day. I kept thinking, the world just changed before our eyes, and my daughter will grow up in it. All I could do was hold her tight.

I can't believe it has been eight years. Although time passes, I will never forget how I felt that day. Today, I take time to remember all of the people who lost their lives, all the people who helped save others and the families of both. I also thank everyone who serves for our freedom to help prevent such a horrible tragedy happening again. We will never forget! ~ Melissa

Thinking & Change

2009-08-28T05:57:00.000-07:00

This is something interesting to contemplate in a quiet moment. Each of us are only "one thought away" from changing our lives. We are the only creature on earth that has the power to change our thoughts. In this way we have the power to control our destiny. How we think is our freedom and our power.
