#205: Beyond Bijoux (Friday, December 3)

I can't believe it; we only have three more Fridays in the year. Only three more opportunities to promote my friends who are being excellent and doing wonderful things in their lives: starting businesses, pursuing their passions and leaving their little imprints on this big world.

Today's Good Friday is courtesy of my friend Amanda. I'm ashamed to say that although she's been pursuing this passion for a long time, I only recently found out about it after admiring something she was wearing. Life's like that sometimes, I suppose.

Amanda is the talent behind Beyond Bijoux, a line of unique, custom-made jewelry. Yup, that means every piece has it's own character and flair...and she puts a lot of love in it too (I know, cos she absolutely LOVES making jewelry and she's not just doing it for the money.) Plus, since she's well-traveled and has lived in a few different countries, she also brings inspiration from those experiences.

Since she's a bit of an overachiever like me (lol), Amanda's hard at work creating her e-commerce site and making the current site bigger and better. But in the meantime, check out her creations at www.beyondbijoux.com (prices are in Canadian dollars) and email her if you see something you like or if you want her to make you something all of your own.

Be excellent!
