A creative outlet turns into a big break.

Margaux Jones, a single mother living in Seattle who began making jewelry as an after-work hobby, has been asked to contribute her creations to the Grammy Awards, MyNorthwest.com writes. According to the article, Jones is in the process of crafting 150 cuff bracelets featuring her drawings and designs that will be included in the gift bags given to all the Grammy performers, nominees and presenters. She hopes that this catalyzes her jewelry brand, NW 58th St., so that she can quit her day job someday. “When you’re on the right path, when you’re doing the thing you’re supposed to do in life, it will happen for you.

When There’s No Succession Plan, Call Wilkerson

Bob Wesley, owner of Robert C. Wesley Jewelers in Scottsdale, Ariz., was a third-generation jeweler. When it was time to enjoy life on the other side of the counter, he weighed his options. His lease was nearing renewal time and with no succession plan, he decided it was time to call Wilkerson. There was plenty of inventory to sell and at first, says Wesley, he thought he might try to manage a sale himself. But he’s glad he didn’t. “There’s no way I could have done this as well as Wilkerson,” he says. Wilkerson took responsibility for the entire event, with every detail — from advertising to accounting — done, dusted and managed by the Wilkerson team. “It’s the complete package,” he says of the Wilkerson method of helping jewelers to easily go on to the next phase of their lives. “There’s no way any retailer can duplicate what they’ve done.”
