Update on my new venture plus travel plans.  The Mad Raven Designs is nearly ready to open.  I have completed sterling silver charm necklaces and a few bronze charms.  Lots of hearts :)  I had hopes of getting the Mad Raven Etsy shop open before I leave for Minnesota but its just not in the cards.  When I return I will add the items and post its opening here. 
I'm headed to Minnesota to meet with Dept 56.  We are going to expand Halloween and reintroduce the Christmas line.  Lots of talk, lots of idea's.  I am excited.
