For many years I have know Alice Klein…her husband, Bryant, as well. Don’t want him to get jealous. I am a fan like many other of my friends that have come to enjoy Alice’s designs. Always so nice to chat and see what new designs she might be working on.
On this particular day I was so glad to congratulate Alice on her 35th year in the jewelry business. Her designs are so unique and recognizable. In celebration of her 35 years as a desinger she has an exhibit….memory lane shall we say. If you stop to see her, ask her to tell you what her original designs are all about, materials, concepts, etc. etc.
Alice says she draws her inspiration from customers, mentors, and art history.
TKO is open Friday, Saturday, and Sunday at 100 Garfield Parkway. Tel. 302-539-6992. Website? http://www.alicehklein-tko.com.
TKO offers a wide variety of price ranges…from fun to fine jwelry. Something to complement a casual outfit at the beach or maybe something for that special occasion.
The holidays are around the corner….please note that Alice can reset anything you already have and give it a fresh look.
Have a great day!!

This is one of my favorite stores at the Delaware Beaches. My friends do know so because I give them some of these baubbles to them. And, some have come to know TKO, Alice, and her husband, Bryant, as well. Love stopping by when in Bethany Beach to check what’s new. Usually, there is plenty to see. Alice and her husband, Bryant, who is also an artist and designer, as well, design and make their jewelry in-house.
TKO is located at 100 Garfield Parkway in Downtown Bethany Beach, Delaware. Stores 6 and 7. Tel. 302-539-6992. Website? http://www.alicehklein-tko.com.
Since 1980, Alice has been in business and she has quite a following. Her designs are recognizable; many customers collect her pieces of art.
Alice can customize any of your current pieces of jewelry. Maybe a little “facelift” is all that is needed.
From fun to fine jewelry, there is something for that special person in mind or for your own indulgence. Traveling? Her fun jewelry would be perfect!!
Alice has a line of wedding bands. She tells me during the summer, men and women come in because they have lost their wedding bands. That turns into a shopping event; all putting their 2 cents into the conversation.
You may also shop online, but at this time of the year TKO is open Saturday and Sunday from 11 a.m. until 4 p.m. You can also call for an appointment, as well.
Women love accesorizing with jewelry. Jewelry can add so much to a simple dress. And, at times just that special piece is all you need to make that entrance.
And, for that Caribbean vacation, when warmer climates are just what is in your future….this line is very cool.
Tax free shopping at the Delaware Beaches….oh, I love it!!

Five years ago I was sitting at Hobos located at Baltimore Avenue in Downtown Rehoboth Beach, when my husband suggested I started a website. To tell you the truth I think he was tired of me calling him to the office to tell him I had found a better place to get corn, or that the crabs were bigger at such and such place…..and can you believe they are putting another bla bla bla store here?
I fell right into it. But from a website it went to a website written in a blog style. Living at the beach is great. I never take it for granted. And, for so many years John and I lived here at the Delaware Beaches. He could have written the blog himself also. I guess being residents of the “Beaches” gave us the ability to pass on the information….at times maybe too much information.
For the ones that follow my blog, there are over 43,000 photos. 5 years worth of photos. My family is still not at ease by my taking photos of the food at restaurants. They say that is so embarrassing. My friends? They are more forgiving. They humor me and don’t dare to start eating until the photo or photos are taken.
John was my best PR person. He always carried AboutMyBeaches cards in his wallet. But, John passed away last August. Yes, that’s the way life goes; not fair. He had a very dry sense of humor and I am sure he is watching what I am writing and what I am eating. He was the first foodie I knew. We miss him so much.
