Love From Lowd Suga

LOWD SUGA’ JEWELRY DESIGN ANNOUNCES GREEN INITIATIVES
Lowd Suga’ Designer/Owner & Actress Arianne Zucker
Makes a Personal Commitment to Environmentally Friendly Practices Adding a Green Twist to Her Popular Designs
Makes a Personal Commitment to Environmentally Friendly Practices Adding a Green Twist to Her Popular Designs
Los Angeles, CA – October 22, 2008 -- Does “going green” have to mean re-usable shopping bags, recycled cans and compost?? NO!! Lowd Suga’ Jewelry Design by Arianne Zucker has unveiled the first of its “green” designs exclusively at http://www.lowdsuga.com/ and is in the process of implementing some exciting changes to the way their jewelry is designed and created in an effort to be more environmentally responsible.
“I personally believe that each individual can be an instrument of change, doing what we can to prevent further damage to the earth and our environment,” says Arianne. “I love creating unique jewelry designs, but I want to do it knowing that as a small business owner, a consumer and citizen of this planet, I am doing it in the most responsible way.”In addition to diligently researching additional green strategies for the future, Lowd Suga’ is implementing greener business practices today starting with designing jewelry that is inspired by three things – acting locally, reusing and recycling.
What Lowd Suga is doing to reduce its footprint:
The focus of our initial green efforts will be in the following three areas:
Acting locally -- We are focusing on finding materials, stones and vintage pieces for our designs right here in LA.
Re-use – Challenging their creativity and resourcefulness, Lowd Suga’ is constantly looking for ways to repurpose vintage pieces, stones or embellishments for the Lowd Suga collection resulting in limited edition or truly one-of-a-kind pieces due to the nature of the resources.
Recycle – At Lowd Suga’, the goal going forward is to use primarily recycled metals and design pieces that use little or no metal at all. In an effort to reduce the environmental impact of this industry, there are new processes being developed to melt down metals that already exist (meaning they were excavated prior to 2008) and reuse the metal source which in turn makes recycling a more feasible solution while also reducing the pollution levels on the environment which Lowd Suga’ is committed to supporting.Why Jewelry has such a large footprint:
What many consumers may not know is that the excavation of metals is one of the leading sources of pollution on earth and the jewelry industry is one of the major reasons for this excavation. Since most jewelry is made of or with some kind of metal it becomes the responsibility of leaders in the industry to re-evaluate the impact they have on the environment and do what they can to minimize the damage.
From the ground, through the purification and shaping process each individual necklace, earring, bracelet or ring has been down a long road that is wrought with environmental pitfalls. It is for this reason that Lowd Suga’ is committed to changing the way they do business.

Arianne Zucker, Actress and Lowd Suga' Jewelry Designer Stars in New Web Series "Life in General"
Arianne Zucker, star of NBC's "Days of our Lives" and head designer of Lowd Suga' jewelry has added yet another new project to her list of credits... a web series called "Life in General."
Describing it as not quite a parody of soaps, but with a feel of all the chaos involved “punched up soap opera style”, “Life in General” also stars fellow soap actors, Lindze Leatherman (ex-Georgie, GH), Scott Clifton (ex-Dillon, GH), and John Ingle (Edward, GH; ex-Mickey, Days), as well as accomplished actress, JoBeth Williams whom Arianne couldn’t have been more pleased to work with. “Of course one of my favorite movies was “Poltergeist” growing up and [JoBeth] is lovely and such a hoot. What a funny woman,” she enthused.
“Life in General” is a Strike.Tv production, which was conceived as a place for writers to put their projects up during the writer’s strike earlier this year. A pilot has been shot, but currently viewers can only watch a behind-the-scenes clip of the show. If it gets enough hits, “Life in General” will be picked up and they will continue to shoot one episode a month. To help describe the process web shows must go through, Zucker explained, “It’s almost like you’re going into a room and pitching and hoping that millions of people hit your website rather than just one executive producer or studio saying, ‘Okay we’ll take your show.’”
To check out the behind the scenes clip of “Life in General” (and to help it get picked up), go to Strike.Tv on Vimeo.com. I can tell you that the show looks like a lot of fun and daytime lovers will definitely appreciate the soap-within-a-soap.
