Batson Jewelry Goes Pink!
Making Jewelry to Fight Breast Cancer
Nashville, TN October 27, 2009—Batson Jewelry joined in the fight against breast cancer by “going pink” this month by re-creating some of their signature pieces out of Pink Ivory wood. On October 1, 2009, Batson Jewelry attended the 3rd annual Women’s Rock for the Cure. Batson Jewelry sold over $150 worth of jewelry with a portion of the proceeds going to Breast Cancer Awareness and the Greater Nashville affiliate of Susan G. Komen For the Cure. Batson Jewelry continued the theme by having a section of their etsy store (www.batsonjewelry.etsy.com) dedicated to Breast Cancer Awareness. For every item sold in this section 25% of the proceeds also went to these charities. Batson Jewelry wrapped up the month up by joining in the Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk on October 24, 2009. Through these efforts Batson Jewelry reached their goal for the amount donated.

From your fingertips to your ears...think Batson!
Nashville, TN October 31, 2009 -- What originated as a business in custom acoustic guitars has now become a creative twist on handmade jewelry. Cory Batson, along with his father and brother, founded Batson Guitars (www.batsonguitars.com) in 1998. Batson Guitars began steadily growing right away, and Cory’s wife, Christine, started immediately thinking of other ways to showcase the beauty of the woods used in the guitars her husband made. She wanted to create something that was fashionable, yet affordable. With this in mind, Batson Jewelry (www.batsonjewelry.etsy.com) opened its doors in July 2009.
The jewelry is cut from a variety of exotic woods then carefully hand-sanded and polished using Danish Oil, which protects and enhances the natural color and grain of wood. Absolutely no stain is used so each piece is very organic.
Prices range from $9 to $25 per item and include earrings as well as pendants. Custom items are also available.
“I purchased the Hollow Square earrings made out of Zebra Wood in September, and I can not believe how many compliments I receive each time I wear them,” said Meredith Gooch, a repeat customer of Batson Jewelry. “I immediately went back to Batson Jewelry’s Web site to purchase a pendant for my sister’s upcoming birthday. She absolutely loved it!”

Journey to Etsy Success
This past Thursday, I participated in the Women's Rock for the Cure here in Nashville. It is a charity event that helps raise money for Breast Cancer Research and the Susan G. Komen foundation. I had a little table where I displayed my jewelry and donated a portion of the proceeds back to the charity. When someone purchased something, I put the purchase in a bag that had a coupon for 20% off in my Etsy store. This is just one more way I hope to drive business to my shop. We will see what happens! Finger crossed!
