give love – 2.14.09 January 24, 2009

As you may know, I have a jewelry company called blue bijou that I design jewelry for.  blue bijou was established in 2007 and has since been featured on Studio 5, Good Things Utah and the brideaccess.com TV show!  These have been tremendous experiences and this Sunday, our brideaccess.com segment will reair.  And the details:

give-love-on-valentines-day1The show will re-air on Sunday, January 25th at 9:30am on ABC4 and Comcast on Demand.  In the event that you live outside of Utah and would love to tune in anyway, feel free to visit the brideaccess.com website and watch it online!  Thanks everyone for your encouragement and support.

The co-owner of the brideaccess.com show, Ryan Winterton, made us blush:

Blue Bijou was a HUGE hit with my
wife.  I told you how she isn’t a very
bling-bling type of girl, but she
absolutely loved the
Swarovski
necklace and ear
rings.  Thank you
very much!  And we will be enjoying
the vacation that came as a bonus
too.  Blue Bijou ROCKS (literally and
f
iguratively)!

– Ryan Winterton, BrideAccess.com
