Twas the Eve before Easter, and all through the house was cleaning, cleaning, cleaning! It's now nice to sit and say "Hello" to y'all! As many of you know, Finders Keepers Jewelry is located in St. Lous, Missouri where we had an F-4 Tornado rip through our Airport and a highly populated area destroying everything in it's path! Please say a prayer for those who have been affected! It looks like a war zone! We do hope that all of those that have been affected by tornados throughout the country and wild-fires find Peace and Happiness tomorrow on Easter! Jewelry note?? More beauties will be added next week! Can you say Pearl Jewelry?? A beautiful Inspired Pearl Necklace and Pearl Bracelet coming soon!! I wish you all a Happy Easter Eve!!

Oh...you know how I love "saving money" (which is why I love Finders Keepers Jewelry) You all need to check out two cool blogs: 1st: www.divinesecretsofadomesticdiva.com and 2nd (but certainly not least): www.stockpilingmoms.com Both websites are awesome and both have great advice on saving money and great giveaways!

4/20/11:
Howdy from the windy midwest! Kids are already off school, and our house seems to be the hang out place! Our door has been a revolving door with kids coming and going! Wouldn't have it any other way...but have lots of cleaning to do for Easter, as our house is the family get-together house also! Unfortunately, it's supposed to rain. Need to clean the basement for the cousins (14 tweens and teens) On a jewelry note...just added fabulous new earrings and a beautiful pearl necklace! Can't believe Mother's Day is right around the corner!!! Hope you all
are having a fabulous Thursday!
4/19/11:
It's late at night...again! Just added some more beautiful jewelry sets! Easter is right around the corner, and busy getting ready for our family gathering. I love holidays to celebrate with close family and friends! I hope all of you have a Happy Passover/Happy Easter! Soon we'll be getting ready for Mother's Day. More special goodies to come!
4/18/11:
Just a few more hours until our weekly deal must come to a close! Wow! We must say Hello! to our many new customers! It is our wish that you all enjoy our jewelry and we look forward to getting to know you. To our repeat customers...Thank you! We appreciate the opportunity to continue to serve you! We just added several new collections...mainly silver jewelry tonight. My favorite? Tonight, that is a tough question; however, I do think that my absolute favorite has to be the FY55 necklace. Check it out! IT IS BEAUTIFUL!!
Have a GREAT evening!
4/17/11:
Happy Sunshine Sunday to you!! We do pray for those who were in the path of the raging storms. Hope you all are safe!
It's sunny here in St. Louis, and it put me in a great mood to add some additional fashion jewelry. I love all of the silver jewelry just added! Hope you enjoy the rest of your beautiful day!
Time to go watch my oldest daughter in her Spring Choir Concert! Now I know school will be getting out soon...Yikes!
4/16/11:
Happy Saturday...well...what's left of it. It's almost midnight. I can be a night owl, but tonight, it's just sheer excitement! Our first shipment of our new jewelry I've been telling you all about has come in. I have already put 4 pieces of new "frosting" up tonight. All of the new additions on the site are designer inspired jewelry. You will love the exceptional design and quality of these pieces. Keep checking us out every day. We will be adding new pieces on daily! Hope you all are having a GREAT weekend! Look forward to keeping you updated!!
 04/13/11: It's been awhile since I've written in our blog, and I decided it's time to get back to writing on a regular basis! Spring is in the air, at least in St. Louis! It's a balmy 75 degrees and sunny! I'm in such a great mood, I decided to add another special for the week...did you get it? If not, sign up for our newsletter so you'll get it! We've added a lot of turquoise jewelry this week, with more inspired pieces to come. I love our trendy jewelry that's being added. Gemstone jewelry is very popular this year and comes in so many awesome colors to go with all of your spring and summer attire! Until tomorrow...
12/23/10:

Dear Customers,
As many of you know Finders Keepers has been for sale. I'm happy to announce I have sold the business to two amazing, energetic and talented businesswomen who I truly believe were heaven sent. We just completed several days of in-person training and they are on their way back to their home state of Missouri and excited to begin taking Finders Keepers to the next level. They have wonderful ideas, please keep checking back to see all the new categories and products they will be introducing in the coming weeks.
I'd like to thank you all for your support and patronage over the years. Please continue to support Sheri and Stacey in their business.
With appreciation,
Barbara Curran

Poem from a friend:
"Another fresh new year is here
Another year to live! To banish worry, doubt, and fear.
To love and laugh and give! This bright new year is given me.
To live each day with zest.
To daily grow and try to be my best.
I have the opportunity once more to right some wrongs,
To pray for peace, to plant a tree, and sing more joyful songs!�
