Hello to everyone!
Many thanks to all of you who stopped by Triskele Moon's booth at this year's Art in the Barn show. We had a spectacular time and enjoyed meeting so many wonderful people!
While we were there, many of you expressed an interest in further shows, so I am pleased to announce our next scheduled event.
Triskele Moon Studios and La Bellissima will be kicking off the season together by hosting a Holiday Open House at La Bellissima - 10 N. Williams Street in historic downtown Crystal Lake, on Saturday November 8 (10-5 PM) and Sunday November 9 (11-5 PM).
La Bellissima is one of three local retail locations that carries Triskele Moon jewelry. It is a fabulous women's boutique specializing in fine, tasteful lingerie, loungewear and personalized fittings. Click here for more information and to view La Bellissima's Web site!
This will be a great opportunity to be the first to purchase the newest designs from Triskele Moon Studios while enjoying all that La Bellissima has to offer. I will be there both days, so come in and shop for your one-of-a-kind gifts in the delightful and relaxed atmosphere!
Remember ... we are all meant to be adorned!
Best,
Leanne, Celtic Creatrix

Hello to everyone! What a great summer we've been having - hope all of you have been having a wonderful time, too! I've been wanting to bring you all up to date on our progress with the web-site for some time now, and finally have had the chance to sit down and get the latest info out there.
My biggest news is that I am feverishly preparing for my first juried Fine Arts show at the end of September. It's called "Art in the Barn" and has been a fixture in the Northern Illinois fall art scene for over 34 years! If you find yourself in the Barrington, IL area on September 27th and 28th, stop on by! We'll be in the lower barn, booth #A3! If you're truly interested and need more details, drop me a line at leanne@triskelemoon.com and we can get you set up with directions and more information.
The summer has also been kind to all of the places that carry Triskele Moon jewelry. Sales have been doing great - and that's something to say in these economic times! I'm finding it a challenge to keep up with the demands and I'm just thrilled about it all! It means I'm on the right track (and I need to look into hiring some minions)!
Which leads us up to the web-site and the future of online sales.
Short version: STILL WORKING ON IT!
Longer version: We are running into a few kinks with the shopping cart and might be looking into other options. Between that and getting ready for a big show, I'm a little frazzled - so we've decided to keep the site as a gallery of my work for now, and then after the show throw ourselves full throttle into getting the site up and running for online sales - and CHRISTMAS! Yes, I said the C word in September!
However, we will be posting new pictures of some of the latest works coming out of Triskele Moon Studios, just so you can get an idea of my range of work and what you can expect once we go live with the shopping cart.
We are also adding a new section of the site - About The Site - that will go into further detail on how I plan to run the store. Your feedback will be a great help! Sometimes I'm so oblivious to the obvious ... so, please feel free to browse all over the site.
That all said, we continue to move forward with tons of enthusiasm, blind faith and beginner's luck ... keep checking back!
