Ketterman's All Ways

  

May 2015  

Always Celebrate Success
   There are two major events in May that celebrate success.  College graduation celebrates the achievements of our young scholars and Mother's Day celebrates the success of the wonderful women who raised those graduates.  How ironically appropriate that these two events tend to fall on the same weekend, allowing Mom to show how she puts her child first by taking a back-seat to her graduate's shining moment.

Although, every Mom who gets to see her son or daughter graduate college receives the gift of pride in knowing she has done her job well.  These two major life events are definitely worth celebrating and even commemorating with a special gift, but there are reasons to celebrate success every day.  Things like meeting a fitness goal, getting a positive comment from your boss at work, or even missing the traffic and making it home early enough to help your spouse make dinner are all reason enough to celebrate.  It is these little achievements that make the "day to day" exciting and joyful.  So, for the month of May, Ketterman's will be celebrating the little things (and the big ones) by offering any customer who shares their success story with us to pick a prize from the "Kettermans 'Always Celebrate' Box" containing chocolates, greeting cards, gift certificates, and more. So, celebrate that you arrived at work on time, or that you finally cleaned out under the kitchen sink, or got your two year old to eat his vegetables, and tell us about it.  Whether big or small, any achievement is worth celebrating, Always!
Speaking of Achievements...
Thanks, Virginia, for once again voting Ketterman's "Best of Virginia" for the Jewelers category!  We are so excited to receive this honor from the readers of Virginia Living Magazine.  It is our wonderful customers who give us opportunities to shine in our jewelry repair and design.  Thank you for entrusting your precious pieces and important purchases to us!  The "Best of" issue hits newsstands, Friday May 8th.
A "Bit" of Class
Dillyn Ketterman Millnick had the honor of participating in the inaugural Mrs. George C. Everhart Memorial Invitational Side Saddle Race at Oatlands on Sunday, April 12th.  All of the Ketterman girls have grown up riding horses, but only Jacklyn and Dillyn have accomplished riding sidesaddle.  Both girls have ridden in the Christmas parades and in local competition, however, this was an entirely different league.  Dillyn and her horse, Always Elegant (affectionately known as Rhett), ran in the first race which included a single fence near the finish.  Although they did not win, Dillyn was thrilled to have been a part of this historical event and plans to return next year with a more competitive edge (meaning a faster horse!).

And an Early Mother's Day at Lynden Farm
 
Just this morning, "Always Charming" was born to mother, "Lynden's Lucky Penny", making the Ketterman's pony "Lucky Charm" a grandmother!  Brinn should have lots of fun teaching this little filly how to be an excellent show pony.

Feature Product
-Endless Jewelry-
Ketterman's is introduced to  most of their jewelry lines through recommendations from customers or vendors they have known and trusted for many years. The Endless line came to our attention through our wonderful Galatea rep, Dave.  He wanted to give Ketterman's the opportunity to be a part of this "next great brand". 
 The Endless bracelet allows the wearer to showcase her creativity with the color and charms of her choosing.  There are single, double, and triple wrap leather bracelets available in 15 different colors with the option of a silver, gold, or rose gold clasp.   With over 100 charms inspired by color, nature, and art, the design possibilities are literally Endless.  
To help you start your collection, Endless at Ketterman's is offering a special starter bracelet.  You can choose any color double wrap bracelet  with a silver clasp for $69 and get a $30 charm FREE!
Fun Fact...
The month of May has several obscure holidays, including National Tuba Day (the first Friday), National No Socks Day, and National Macaroon Day, to name a few.
