Urban Contessa is a bit of a pipe dream for me. I have visions of grandeur that will probably never be achieved, and yet I continue to dream.
The dream began a couple of years ago. I had just bought a house and needed to pretty it up. So I went to work making placemats and whatnot. One day a flyer came in the mail for a new bead shop opening up. So I went and took a class. Then began making pieces for myself.
Friends and family started commenting on my jewellery and home decor. "Can you make me one?" Sure, why not? I mean really, how many placemats and necklaces can one girl have?
Then, one day, someone offered to pay me.
And a light bulb went on above my head.
I could make money doing this. Wow!
And Urban Contessa was born.
I have ideas floating around in my head all the time ... which probably explains my chronic insomnia. I hope to use this blog to get my ideas on paper (so to speak), get some feedback, hear some constructive criticism and perhaps make a name for myself.
Who knows, maybe one day I'll be famous!

About the Contessa
Urban Contessa is very excited to launch a new look. Not only a new look, but a new concept.
We are revitalizing the lost art of saying thank you. There was a time when business owners thanked loyal customers with a thoughtful gift. Sadly, what was once a common courtesy has fallen victim to the hurried existence we all seem to live. A thoughtful gift of thanks tells clients that you care and will have them rushing back as return customers.
Thanking your clients with a small gift of appreciation does more than show you care. Let's face it—you want repeat business. One of the easiest ways to do this is to ensure your clients remember you.
To make certain your customers return, your business needs to remain in their memories. Thank them for their loyalty with something they will see and use often. Each time they use your thoughtful gift, they will remember who gave it to them and the positive experience they had with you.
Even better, when their friends comment on it, and ask them where they got it, your clients will pass on your name. There is no better form of advertising than a recommendation from a happy customer.
