Hello, Years ago, I got a postcard from a comicbook artist/ musician by the name of Brian Chippendale that had the words "Glitter Limes" written on it. in addition to a stylized silkscreen of a monkey on it. I had no context for what the words meant, but they stuck in my mind and kinda became a default phrase I would say in amazement or surprise. One morning I was walking back from the recording studio after a all-night recording session when I saw the moon setting on the skyline and I declares, "Glitter limes!" as sight was quite hansome. Then the words "glitter", "limes", "morning", and "moon" started dancing around in my head and forming a synthpop song. Much later I saw Brian Chippendale at a concert with his band the lighting bolts and I noticed he had a glimmering shimmering citrus slice on his wrist, I asked him about it after the show and he said something about a person who made them and how they were neat, but I was pretty drunk, so I kinda forgot what the name was. So I guess that was you? Anyway, the CDR is normally $10, but do you think maybe I could trade you for a glitterlime?

Warm regards,
Robert Syrett

"What I need to tell you about it besides the nice aspects of the secluded waterfront area, the towering beige warehouse wall that was the backdrop to the stage like we were assembled behind the Walmat store, and the melancholic cloud shrouds that hid the city was Ive been wearing the starfruit basically every day just switching it from my different shoulders. And anybody who talks to me just looks at where it is and covets. When the damp light faded and the orange street lamps lit up, Chippenbolt started playing and the surge crowded and it was so dreamy until afterwards where it had been on my shoulder was just two scorched holes. When the music fans dispersed I searched and combed the lot, then the earth, up along the beaches and into the thicket, under the mud huts, inside the lonely giant icecaps, down through the blowholes of the spotted whales and it was nowhere around. It could only have been obliterated in a bass cloud is the one explanation. Devin thought it was alright that it happened during the show because the music and the glitter fused and died together and that anyway all GL products are insured against Lightning Bolt shows. So this is what I humbly represent to you just as I submitted it to the police. You can ask anybody. Dont be swayed by past knowledge or wisdom when you choose my punishment."

Debbie ? I saw your lemon necklaces in a shop in Orinda, CA.  The store was closed but I looked through the window and saw your name. I absolutely LOVE them. The reason I am emailing you is that my grandmother owns a lemon ranch in Santa Paula, CA.  She is wonderful woman, who is now 92.   She and my late grandfather have owned the ranch for 50 years and it is a very special place for us.  The ranch will most likely be sold to developers when she passes. I am wondering if you would consider making some custom necklaces, if I provided the lemons from the ranch for my family?  That way I could memorialize the lemons in some way.  Thanks,   Julianne

Well, I have to share this story because it illustrates the power of persistence and how things come full circle?  My best friend Melanie was on Nantucket Island last summer and saw a glitterlime bracelet on a woman walking by.  Melanie & I make quite a spectacle of one another's birthday and spend all year searching for really cool, thoughtful gifts for one another (we've known each other for 45 years).  Anyway, she follows this woman into store after store trying to get her attention and finally inquires as to where the woman found such a cool bracelet.  "My friend is an artist and I have to find one of those for her birthday!".  The glitter lime woman did not know where it was purchased since it was a gift from a friend, but vowed to try and find out if Melanie would give her an email address.  One month later Mel heard back from the woman and the only detail she had was that the bracelet was bought in an art gallery in Minnesota!  Mel researched every gallery and finally found the one selling the bracelets...she shipped one to me for my birthday and I FLIPPED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  So...how's that for love?  Then...I was in NYC at the Gift Show trying to find inspiration for jewelry designs for my business and guess who's booth I happened by?  GLITTERLIMES!!!  I couldn't believe it....I told Debbie the story and she said I should write.  I think these pieces are good luck...Ciao!

Hi Debbie,
Sorry to bother you in the midst of all the work you are doing spreading joy.
It's no trouble, I will await the limequat barette.
Best Wishes,
David

SOMETHING GOOD GOES HERE

Hi there,
First, let me begin by saying that I am a big fan of glitter limes--i absolutely love your products.  
My fiance and I are planning our wedding for next summer and we are planning on a citrus theme and I would love to have my bridesmaids wear your bobby pins in their hair.  I see on your website that you have limequats and key limes available as bobby pins, but i wanted to know if you have any oranges that can be made into bobby pins as well.My bridesmaid dresses are orange so I am trying to keep everything one color if possible.   
Thank you so much for your time!!!
Kate

Hi Debbie,
My name is Anne Sokol. I ordered a lime bracelet from you last week. I have a couple questions regarding the sale. I wanted to know how long shipping usually takes. Due to the fact that I am doing a school project on your jewelry. I go the Creative Circus in Atlanta. We were asked to choose a company that had alot of creativity. My partner and I chose glitterlimes and are now trying to buy items to show the product and to show what market glitterlimes has. Just thought I would let you know. I love your jewelry so much! I would really appreciate an estimate on how long it takes to for your product to arrive. Thanks so much! anne sokol

Hey there...
Okay, here is my Glitterlimes Story that happened just TODAY!
Well, it kind of goes back a while...back to a year or so ago when I was living in LA and first saw your Glitterlimes online...I wanted one then, but I guess the time wasn't right, or I was too stressed out, or whatever...but it didn't happen. Fast forward to July this year when I moved up to SF (after being away for 5 years) to go back to school - exciting...fast forward again to just last Friday when I was having dinner at that Ethiopian place on Valencia with some friends and ran into my old friend Katherine...and she had a Glitterlime on...I got really hot for it and told her how much I wanted one and she said that she knows you and you live just down the street...
I resolved to look them up online again, but then got all freaky with school and promptly forgot...
Then, this morning after having a hideous conversation with the bank and being in a really shitty mood, I went to Scrap to buy some foamcore for a presentation WOW!). The day was looking better when I walked in and the ScrapCat meowed back at me...so that was nice...I found my boards ...And then...she moved a paper on the desk and in a shallow box under it filled with lots of scraps of jewelry and stuff...WAS A GLITTERLIME!!! I shrieked and asked how much it was and was so fucking thrilled that it just appeared right in front of me..of course I bought it and put it on IMMEDIATELY!
Anyhow...it now is well loved,
YEAY!!!!
