“Monsters & Money in the Morning”

This morning I appeared on CBS’ Monsters & Money in the Morning as an example of a small business thriving in these economic times. The producer saw the article in yesterday’s Chicago Tribune and wanted to find out more.

The 5-minute segment is archived on the Monsters & Money in the Morning website. Just do a search for Blue Buddha in the upper right to find the footage.

Here’s a few screenshots:

The entire roundtable

Two necklaces. Note the clock in the background–yep, that would be 5:17 a.m. I woke up at the early hour of 3:00 this morning in order to appear on the show. Whew!

On an interesting sidenote, the makeup artist fell in love with my necklace. She told me that she knows someone who recently took a chainmaille class in Chicago and has been making pieces like mad! I would bet 10,000 H18 anodized aluminum rings that the class was with Kat or Vanessa. Small world!
