Welcome to Pelhuaz New Blog!


This is new for me. I'm not an expert on any of this blogging stuff, but I do like to speak my mind (well, in this case write about it), help promoting my Indie Shop Owners Friends, showcase fabulous items and share.

Most of the time, I do it thru Pelhuaz different pages (FB, G+, IG, Tumblr & Twitter), so why not incorporate all that to a blog? In that way, I can express myself and have an open forum to talk (again write) freely.


First of all, I want you to be patient with me, because English is my secondary language. If you find something spelled in a funny way, just laugh with me... I'll get better!


You might ask, who are you, girl? My name is Zeide Rojas -but I preferred going by Zei. I'm a Telecommunications Project Manager that love making crafts and most of all jewelry. I'm a momma, a wife, a crafter, a artisan, a entrepreneur, an Indie A Lister, and a sarcastic friend. Currently I'm at my 15 week of pregnancy and soon to be Stay-at-Home-Mom (SAHM -an acronym that I learned recently). Our home is located in a Little Rain Forest that I love. 

This is a front view of our house. The model's name is Hanna. 



 

In this side view, we have the handsome Manto.




And this is a very happy me, showing off my growing belly.




I'm all hair, love orange and live in the beautiful island of Puerto Rico. Puerto Rico, officially known as the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, is an unincorporated territory of the United States, located in the northeastern Caribbean, east of the Dominican Republic and west of both the U.S. Virgin Islands and the British Virgin Islands.





Puerto Rico is a little island that measure only 100 miles long by 35 miles wide, making it the smallest island of the Greater Antilles. Puerto Rico (Spanish word for "rich port") have an exquisite weather that invite you to explore. Is like summer all year long. With temperature of 85 to 95 degrees, we are for sure the envy of anyone who is tired of the winter snow. You can find local exotic hideaways, miles of white sandy beaches, mountains and valleys, and many other natural wonders.

I took this picture on our last summer trip to Vieques -a municipality of Puerto Rico. 



I'll dedicate a post only to our sites and beautiful beaches. I promise! 

I opened Pelhuaz on June 2013 with the intention of having a place to showcase my creations. I love things simple, so you will only find Simple-Modern-Chic jewelry. 




As I have a girl, I also spend time making few hair accessories and jewelry for the Little Princesses. 



We have exquisite unique handmade jewelry. Each piece I create is made from start to finish with a creative and artistic soul in mind. I use a vast range of materials and carefully mixed each style and texture. Handsome glossy stones with intriguing matrix and colors combinations.

I invite you to take a look at Pelhuaz' Shop. Today, I'm very excited as my friend Tessa from Krmbal help us out in the redesign of our storefront. She is an amazing artist and create such beautiful designs. She's a good friend and is also a Indie A Lister. Her Krmbal Store is full of amazing designs that I'm obsessed with.  

Due to this milestone, I got inspired and decided to create this blog. In order to celebrate, we are running fun giveaways all day. The winners will be posted on Saturday, April 5. (Only 1 price per winner)
