Regina Spangler and her jewelry business are new to Botetourt County.

The economy has many new businesses coming out in Botetourt County. Regina Spangler sent us her announcement of a silver jewelry business she has opened.

LOCAL WOMAN STARTS STERLING SILVER JEWELRY BUSINESS

In a unique blend of fashion and sales, Regina Spangler has started her own sterling silver jewelry business as an independent Silpada Designs Representative.

Silpada Designs is a direct sales company, offering an exclusive collection of handcrafted .925 sterline silver jewelry and only the finest semi-precious and composite stones. As an independent Silpada Designes Representative, Regina offers three services: beautiful jewelry to purchase, free products for party hostesses, and business opportunities for those wishing to start their own business. Silpada has recently been featured on “Oprah” and “Rachel Ray” and in various fashion and home magazines.

Silpada Designs was started in 1997 by its co-founders, Bonnie Kelly and Teresa Walsh. From a small group of saleswomen in Kansas, including Bonnie and Teresa, Silpada Designs has now grown to more than 16,000 independent Representatives across the county. By starting her own business, Regina has become an active Silpada Designs independent Representative in the Botetourt County area.

The first things that attracted Regina to Silpada Designs were the beautiful designs, the quality of the jewelry and the unique approach of the business. “Selling Silpada jewelry doesn’t require any special skills. There are no formal presentations to memorize,” Regina says. “You just go to parties, display our unique, sterling silver jewelry, have fun and write up orders! It’s one of the easiest ways to have your own business!”

“I researched various jewelry companies in the past four years & Silpada has the best quality sterling silver so I chose to be part of their company. It’s a step above costume jewelry & companies that only have silver-plated merchandise. I hope to continue this venture into my retirement because the jewelry is so beautiful and the exclusive designs become collectors’ pieces when they are retired from the collection.”

While individual orders can be placed, most sales are made through in-home parties or catalog parties. There are no formal presentations. It’s just a “Fun Ladies Night Ourt Playing Dress-Up With Jewelry.”tm The Silpada Designs catalog can be viewed online at www.silpada.com/regina.spangler .

Regina also offers a fundraiser plan for your group. To place an order, to book a party or for more information on the business opportunity, Regina can be reached at 540-520-6740 or by e-mail at silvergems3@aol.com.
